The Federal Justice Statistics Program (FJSP) provides comprehensive and detailed information about the federal justice system's processing of criminal cases. The FJSP provides annual data on workload, activities, and outcomes associated with federal criminal cases. Information is acquired on all aspects of processing in the federal justice system, including arrests, prosecution decisions, referrals to magistrates, court dispositions, sentencing outcomes, sentence length, and time served. Seven stages of federal criminal case processing are within the scope of the FJSP, from arrest to incarceration and supervision of convicted offenders:
The FJSP receives the source data from the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS), Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), Executive Office of U.S. Attorneys (EOUSA), Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts (AOUSC), U.S. Sentencing Commission (USSC), and the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP). See the Federal Justice Statistics series for data covering 2005 through 2006. For prior years, see the Compendium of Federal Justice Statistics series.
