Notes:
  1. Staffing levels measured are those in effect on 12/31/2012.
  2. Counts are full time equivalent employees (FTEs).
  3. Reports for prior years did not include complete counts of probation, bailiff, security, and similar staff. The 2012 counts include all staff regardless of function.
  4. In cases where courts responding to the survey noted that staff perform a variety of tasks, counts were placed in the Work Multiple Operational Tasks category. Typically those tasks include courtroom clerk, receipting, calendaring, customer service, bailiff, etc.
