Fewer criminal cases are going to verdict in Philadelphia and more defendants are agreeing to negotiated pleas deals. That’s according to case disposition data collected by the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas and recently obtained by The Legal.

The data details the outcomes of hundreds of thousands of criminal cases that were disposed through the Common Pleas and Municipal Court systems over the past five years. Along with showing a busy court system, the information also provides some insights into how the criminal justice system has functioned during the first year under Philadelphia’s reformer District Attorney Larry Krasner.
