Rulings, compared with the board
1.26× the board's rate against tenantsDecided against tenants more often than the board does on comparable applications — 1.26× the board's rate (95% interval 1.13–1.39), across 238 contested orders.
Orders are grouped by who applied and what they applied for, and this member’s record is compared with the board’s on that same mix. Withdrawn, settled and non-attendance dismissals are excluded. It measures how these decisions differ from the board’s on cases of the same type.
Dismissals, compared with the board
Bars tenants and landlords about as oftenDismissed tenants' and landlords' applications as not proved, out of jurisdiction or barred on procedure at rates that do not differ once the kind of application is accounted for, across 74 such dismissals of tenants' applications and 41 of landlords'.
Counts only dismissals the member ruled on — not proved, outside the board’s jurisdiction, or barred on procedure. Applications withdrawn, settled or dismissed because nobody attended are excluded, as they are above. The two sides are compared on this member’s own docket, against the board’s rate on the same kinds of application. It does not measure whether any decision was right.
