Caseload & timing
From public federal docket records for this judge.
Judge Cannon's reviewed referral work includes general civil matters in the Atlanta Division, including two employment-discrimination cases in which defendants sought summary judgment, alongside criminal-duty matters involving suppression and dismissal of indictments. The available directly assigned matters are mostly recent and pending, so the record does not yet support a caseload-wide denominator.
