Analysis of Methods of Disposition of Unfair Labor Practice Cases Closed, Fiscal Year 1977

p. 297. The table is cut off by the crop: the body stops after the "Board decision" row with blank ruled space below, so the remaining rows of the "Compliance with" block and any further method blocks (and the footnote keyed to the superscript 1 in the caption) are not on this image. No footnotes are printed within the crop, so `footnotes` is empty. 18 printed columns: stub, then All C cases (Number / Percent of total closed / Percent of total method) and Number / Percent of total closed for each of CA, CB, CC, CD, CE, CG, CP. Only the All C panel has the third "Percent of total method" column. Many decimal points are faint or dropped in this scan; I restored them where the column format makes them unambiguous: "All C, Percent of total method" for "Administrative law judge's decision" prints as "0 7" (read 0.7) and for "Compliance with" as "100 0" (read 100.0); "CA, Percent of total closed" for "After hearing opened, before issuance of administrative law judge's decision" prints as "0 7" (read 0.7); "All C, Percent of total closed" for "Consent decree" (the second one, under "After hearing opened") prints as "0 2" (read 0.2); "CA/CB, Percent of total closed" for "Stipulated decision" (under "After hearing opened") print as "0 0" (read 0.0); "CP, Percent of total closed" for "Stipulated decision" (under "After issuance of complaint") prints as "0 2" (read 0.2); "CC, Percent of total closed" for "Board decision" prints as "2 3" (read 2.3). "Board decision", CA Number is printed with a speck that can look like a decimal point ("6 23"); it is 623, consistent with the column. Cells rendered as a dash rule ("------") are transcribed as "", including the "Percent of total method" cell on the "Total number of cases closed" row. Two distinct rows carry the label "Stipulated decision" and two carry "Consent decree"; the first pair sits under "After issuance of complaint, before opening of hearing" and the second pair under "After hearing opened", as printed by indentation.

p. 298. Continuation page: no column headings are printed on this crop, so header_rows is empty. The grid is 18 columns = stub + 17 numeric columns, read off the vertical rules: a 3-column total group (number, percent, percent-of-section) followed by seven 2-column (number, percent) case-type groups. The first four body rows ("Adopting administrative law judge's decision (no exceptions filed)", "Contested", "Circuit court of appeals decree", "Supreme Court action") are the tail of a section whose heading and earlier rows are on the preceding page; column 3 for those four rows is a percent of that off-crop section total. Decimal points are frequently dropped or nearly invisible in this 1-bit scan (the page prints "100 0", "0 5", "35 5", "1 9", etc.). I restored them where the value is unambiguously a percentage with one decimal place, e.g. "100 0" -> 100.0, "37 0" -> 37.0, "23 9" -> 23.9, "5 1" -> 5.1, "1 7" -> 1.7, "0 6" -> 0.6. Doubtful cells, all in the last (seventh) case-type pair's percent column: "After hearing opened, before administrative law judge's decision" (under Withdrawal) and "After issuance of complaint, before opening of hearing" (under Dismissal) each read as 0.5 next to a count of 2; the implied denominator (~467) would give 0.4, so the final digit may be a 4. Transcribed as printed. Likewise the 10 (k) actions row prints 96.3 where 457 of an implied ~475 CD cases would give 96.2. All printed subtotals and percent columns cross-check: the five Withdrawal stage rows sum to the Withdrawal line and the seven Dismissal stage rows sum to the Dismissal line in every one of the eight count columns; the two sub-rows of "By Board decision" sum to it in all count columns; and column 3 sums to 100.0 within both the Withdrawal and Dismissal blocks. No misprints detected in the counts. Cells printed as a dash rule or leader dots are rendered "". In the 10 (k) actions row the rightmost column holds a very short mark, read as a dash rule and left empty. The em dash in "achieved—firm went out of business" is as printed. In footnote 2 no period is visible after "the Act" before "See table 7A"; transcribed without one.
