According to TRAC, the recovery in 14 of the 90 federal judicial districts in the country has not yet reached the pre-pandemic level, and that list includes the Southern districts of New York in Manhattan, South Florida, South Texas ( Houston) and Northern California, in San Francisco.
But while these districts are home to large metropolitan areas, other large city districts such as the Northern District of Illinois (Chicago) have largely recovered, the report warns.
Additionally, federal court proceedings in some more rural districts of the country, such as Maine and Vermont, have also been slow to recover.
The findings are based on an analysis of the Justice Department’s case-by-case records, updated through August 2020, obtained by TRAC following litigation under the Freedom of Information Act.
