Department of Justice in Florida

Justice awards tagged to Florida

Department of Justice as awarding agency, Florida as place-of-performance: 7,053 records summing to $2,735,315,144.23. A Department of Justice award coded outside FL is out. An award in Florida from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Florida (FL) excludes Georgia, Alabama, and any Caribbean tag that is not FL. A Savannah-coded award is Georgia.

Seven thousand fifty-three awards is a thick Justice action file. Modifications can add rows without each row being a new case. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 7,053 as 7,053 unique prosecutions, inmates, or named field offices. The overlay Department of Justice in Florida is the both-keys table. Florida federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Justice is the agency book without an FL filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Miami, Tampa, and Jacksonville offices are unpublished. Do not treat the award count as unique U.S. Attorney districts. Correlation is not causation: Florida did not “cause” $2,735,315,144.23 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 015 × FL only.

Not a prosecution or inmate census

$2,735,315,144.23 does not measure prosecutions, inmates, or named field offices. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 015 and an FL place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 7,053 awards as a census of prosecutions, inmates, or named field offices. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Florida federal spending or Department of Justice matched $2,735,315,144.23 and 7,053, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Georgia and Alabama Justice joins are other pairs, not addends.
