Clearance Rates - Posted FY2011 Q1
What it is: The clearance rate is the number of disposed cases as a percentage of the number of filed cases in a given time period. In juvenile courts, the clearance rate is the number of adjudicated referrals as a percentage of the number of initiated referrals in a given time period.
How it is measured: A clearance rate of 100% means the court has disposed of as many cases as were filed in the time period represented. A clearance rate under 100% means the court has disposed of fewer cases than were filed, resulting in an increase in cases awaiting disposition. A clearance rate over 100% means the court has disposed of more cases than were filed, resulting in a decrease in cases awaiting disposition.
Why it is important: Clearance rates measure whether the court is keeping up with its incoming caseload.
The Utah State Courts mission is to provide the people an open, fair, efficient, and independent system for the advancement of justice under the law.
