p. 20. The crop is a bar chart ("TRIAL EXAMINER HEARINGS AND DECISIONS (PROCEEDINGS)") with its data printed as a small table beneath the plot; only that data table is transcribed. The chart title and subtitle are treated as the caption and omitted. The y-axis label "Proceedings" and its scale values (1,125; 1,000; 875; 750; 625; 500; 375; 250; 125; 0) are axis decoration, not table rows, so they are not transcribed. The stub heading "Fiscal Year" is printed on two lines at the left of the year row along the x-axis; the year labels serve as the column headings for the data table below. Each of the two row labels is printed on two lines ("Hearings / Held", "Decisions / Issued") and is preceded by a legend swatch (a solid black block for Hearings Held, a hatched block for Decisions Issued); the swatches are not reproduced as text. All twenty values are clearly legible and consistent with the plotted bar heights. The bulleted narrative text below the chart ("General Counsel's office ...", etc.) is running body text of the report, not part of the table, and is excluded.
