58 argued cases decided by written opinion. Who wrote, who joined whom, and how often the Court split.

The Court, in order of seniority

Opinions written Granted & Noted List

One bar per Justice, in seniority order, so the chart reads the same every Term. A mixed writing (concurring in part, dissenting in part) counts once under its lead label; the striped end of a segment is the share that was partial. Hover a segment for its count.

How they write Measured from 58 of 58 decisions

Every opinion of the Term, read from its PDF and measured by writing: the Court’s opinion, each concurrence and each dissent, body text only (footnotes counted apart, citations counted once each).

Per curiam41,312——

Each cell is the number written, a bar, and the median length in words. The bars share one scale, so a dissent’s length reads against a Court opinion’s: a bar is full at 9,298 words, the longest median among cells with two or more writings, and a longer one is marked. A concurrence in the judgment is counted with the concurrences; a mixed writing with the dissents.

A Justice’s writings of every kind, weighted by length. Each column is shaded from its lowest value (lightest) to its highest (darkest) among the Justices. Across the Term’s 152 writings: 19.5 words per sentence, grade level 11.7, 14.4 citations per 1,000 words. Grade level is Flesch–Kincaid, computed after citations are masked; on legal prose it is an index for comparing Justices, not a reading age.

Who agreed with whom Lineups parsed for 58 of 58 decisions

Every pair of Justices, as a network. A line joins two who ended on the same side of the judgment at least as often as the threshold; the thicker and darker, the more often. Distance is the layout’s reading of the whole matrix: pairs who agree sit close. Circle size is the share of decisions in the majority. The stricter reading counts only decisions where both joined the opinion of the Court in full. Hover a Justice or a line for the numbers.

The shape of the Term

How these are counted

A decision is one written opinion of the Court in an argued case. Consolidated dockets argued together count once.

A mixed writing counts once, under its lead label, and is marked partial. A concurrence in part and dissent in part is never two writings.

A plurality credits its author with the lead opinion; there is no opinion of the Court to have joined in full.

Partial joins (“joined as to Part II–B”) count as agreement on the judgment but not on the full opinion.

Denominators are per pair: only decisions both Justices took part in, and in which neither was on both sides.

Merits only. Argued cases on the Granted & Noted List. Dissents from denial and emergency-docket writings are not counted here.
