citing decisions per year

Court decisions citing this, by year. The dip in the last several years is a data-coverage gap, not a real trend — our corpus holds fewer opinions from the most recent years, so recent citations are undercounted.

Appeals shall be directly to the appropriate appellate court if:

(1) An adequate record or stipulation of facts is available and the right to a jury trial is waived by all parties entitled thereto; or

(2) The parties stipulate that only questions of law are involved and the district court certifies the questions.
