These are counts of past written decisions and dockets, not predictions of how any case will be decided. A distribution appears only when at least 5 decisions (or 5 dockets) are behind it; smaller groups are listed instead.
A dash marks a court with fewer than 5 suits, or none that has ended: no distribution is shown for it.
Many suits end by a docket entry with no written decision, often a remand order that gives the agency a deadline. "Docket text" under a suit's ending shows that entry and, where its words state them, the agency's deadline, what the plaintiff may do if the agency does not act, and whether the court kept the case, each beside the words it was read from.
A suit's class is read from its docket: "Ended once the agency acted" counts voluntary and stipulated dismissals and dismissals as moot, which is how most suits end after the agency decides; the docket rarely says why.
