Forms and filings
The forms and filings that at least 5 cases in the group name. Open one for how the decisions that name it came out.
2,996 written decisions from 2,731 cases in the whole mandamus and agency-delay group, the group's newest decided November 12, 2026. Updated November 14, 2026 at 1:17 a.m. CT; the Passim connector counts the live collection, which can differ by the day's additions and retirements (which total to quote). Coverage: of the 1,617 public decisions since January 1, 2025 that a CourtListener and GovInfo search for mandamus and agency delay finds, Passim holds 1,406 (87%), 1,039 of them in this group, measured November 14, 2026. Some of what that search finds are not mandamus decisions. Tell us about a decision we're missing.
39 other forms and filings are named by fewer than 5 cases each and have no page here; their decisions are in the spreadsheet of every decision (CSV).
A decision that names two forms is counted under both; cases counts the suits the decisions come from, each once. These pages cover written decisions only: a suit's form is known mostly from its written decision, so counting suits by form would keep mostly the contested ones (how forms are read).
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, not summarized. How it's counted.
