Reading the Central District Annual Report for 2018 on the subway. What caught my eye was the filings by division for calendar year 2018. Riverside filings are 71% of downtown filings – Riverside 11,191 to LA 15,670. Riverside had more cases filed than Santa Ana, San Fernando Valley and Santa Barbara combined. Filings in Santa Barbara are two-thirds the filings in the San Fernando Valley.
| LA | 15,670 |
| SFV | 3,243 |
| Riv | 11,191 |
| SA | 4,881 |
| SB | 2,207 |
| Total | 37,192 |
What portion you say of the total filings were chapter 13?
| 13 | |||
| LA | 15,670 | 3,767 | 24% |
| SFV | 3,243 | 807 | 25% |
| Riv | 11,191 | 2,373 | 21% |
| SA | 4,881 | 882 | 18% |
| SB | 2,207 | 418 | 19% |
| Total | 37,192 | 8,247 | 22% |
I would love to know what portion of those were confirmed. This data tells us that Nancy Curry and Kathy Dockery split 3,767 cases (1,887 each); Rod Danielson got 2,373; Amrane Cohen, 882 and Liz Rojas, 1,225.
By the way, pro per filings were 16.4% of the total. It was my impression that that number was much higher – in the 25-30% range.
