Reader’s notes

p. 178. The table is printed sideways (landscape) on the page and the digits are very small at the available resolution, so every cell was checked against the table's internal arithmetic: Total—all courts = courts of appeals + district courts + bankruptcy courts for each of the three measures; Number decided = Upholding + Contrary within each court block; each section line (NLRB-initiated actions or interventions, Action by other parties, To restrain NLRB from, To compel NLRB to, Other) equals the sum of its sub-rows; and Totals—all types equals NLRB-initiated plus Action by other parties. All of these balance for the grid as transcribed, which is the main basis for confidence. Most uncertain cells: the Upholding/Contrary split in the last four rows (Pay fees under FOIA, Priority of claim in Bankruptcy, Intervention in Section 301 lawsuits, Privacy Act compliance) in both the Total—all courts and In district courts blocks. Individual digits there could not be resolved one by one; the values given (upholding 0, 0, 1, 1 and contrary 1, 1, 1, 0) are the reading that satisfies every row and column sum and that matches the visible trailing digits (upholding ends in 1, contrary ends in 0). An alternative split cannot be fully ruled out, though the printed subtotals (5 / 2 / 3) constrain it tightly. Row order within the "To compel NLRB to" group is as printed: Issue complaint; Take action in R case; Comply with Freedom of Information Act (FOIA); Other—Pay fees under EAJA; Produce records (not under FOIA) — i.e. the "Other—" line sits fourth, not last. Two different rows are both labelled simply "Other": one is the last sub-row under "To restrain NLRB from" (all zeros) and one is the fourth section line under "Action by other parties" (5 / 2 / 3). The table caption line is cut off along the top edge of the crop and is not transcribed.
