Abstract

This Essay proceeds as follows: We survey in Part I the prior literature on ranking judicial performance using citation counts. In Part II, we discuss why there is value in the examination of biases in citation counts. In Part III, we report our preliminary attempt to rank judges in terms of their relative bias levels and to adjust citation counts for possible bias.
