Reading a row

The big number is the judge’s percentile among 2026 judges at the same court level. Supreme Court and Court of Appeals judges form groups too small for a percentile, so their big number is their percentile among all judges statewide (marked “statewide”). The bars show that group; this judge is the purple mark. Under them: rank in the group and statewide across all courts. The survey grade (0–4) and response count come from the state’s report; the last line ranks the response count.
