Reader’s notes

p. 182. Grid is 16 columns: stub plus five court groups of three columns each (Number Decided, Upholding, Contrary). HEADER SPAN ARTIFACT (important): the printed rules that bound the second- and third-level heading boxes are drawn one column to the right of the columns they actually describe, in the left half of the table. As printed, the box for "Total - - all courts" extends over four columns (through the "Number Decided" column that belongs to the courts of appeals), and "In courts of appeals" is boxed over only two columns (its "Upholding"/"Contrary" pair); likewise the first "Court Determination" box is drawn over the "Contrary to Board position" column of the Total group plus the appeals "Number Decided" column, and the "Court Determination" box in the State Courts group is drawn over all three of its columns. The group boxes for the district-court and bankruptcy-court groups are aligned correctly. I have transcribed the headings against the columns they logically govern (3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3), which is confirmed by the fourth-level headings themselves and by the arithmetic of the body (e.g. 14 = 7 appeals + 7 district + 0 + 0; 13 = 6 + 7 + 0 + 0; 1 = 1 + 0 + 0 + 0). A reader wanting the literal box geometry should be aware the printed rules do not match. Header wording kept as printed, including the inconsistent casing: the Total group uses lowercase "position" while the other groups use "Position", and the State Courts group's middle heading reads "Upholding Board" with no "Position". Heading text broken mid-word across lines ("Num / ber Decided", "Upholdi / ng", "Contrar / y to", "Determinati / on") has been rejoined. "Total - - all courts" is printed with a space between the two hyphens; written here as "Total -- all courts". The row label "Totals -- all types" is printed in bold. PRINTED INCONSISTENCY: the row "Action by other parties" shows 2 and 2 in the bankruptcy-court "Number Decided" and "Upholding Board Position" columns, but (a) its own total of 9 equals only 4 (appeals) + 5 (district), (b) its three sub-rows "To review:", "To restrain NLRB from:" and "To compel NLRB to:" sum to 0 in the bankruptcy columns, and (c) the "Totals -- all types" row shows 0 in every bankruptcy column. The 2s are transcribed as printed; they appear to be an error in the source. No footnotes are printed under the table. The crop shows the full table; nothing appears cut off.
