1 Standards adopted by the Board for Judicial Administration recommend that 90 percent of all probate cases should be adjudicated within 8 months of the date of filing of the information, 98 percent within 18 months of filing, and 100 percent within 36 months. The figures under this heading reflect the actual percentages of these cases resolved within 8, 18 and 36 months.
2 This table includes only probate cases. Guardianship and mental illness cases are not included.
3 Lower numbers suggest proportionately smaller backlogs of pending cases.
4 Time-in-process figures do not include the time cases are placed in suspended status. A case is said to be in suspended status if it is out on warrant, in mediation, stayed, in arbitration, on appeal, on post-filing diversion, or has been continued for prosecution or placed on deferred prosecution.
