The United States\r\nSentencing Commission compiled from the Clerk of the Court of each\r\ncourt of appeals the final opinions and orders, both published and\r\nunpublished, in all criminal appeals for the time period surveyed. The\r\nCommission also collected habeas corpus decisions (although\r\ntechnically civil matters), because such cases often involve\r\nsentencing issues. Both the \"case\" and the \"defendant\" are used in\r\nthis collection as units of analysis. Each \"case\" comprises\r\nindividual records representing all codefendants participating in a\r\nconsolidated appeal. Each defendant's record comprises the\r\nsentencing-related issues corresponding to that particular defendant.\r\nThe 1993 data file (Part 1) includes all appeals cases received by the\r\nUnited States Sentencing Commission as of December 22, 1993, that had\r\ndisposition dates between March 9, 1990, and September 30, 1993\r\n(inclusive). The 1994 file (Part 2) includes all appeals cases\r\nreceived as of December 23, 1994, that had disposition dates between\r\nOctober 1, 1993, and September 30, 1994 (inclusive).
