Department of Justice federal obligations in Indiana

Agency 015 meeting Indiana

Department of Justice as awarding agency, Indiana as place-of-performance: 2,339 records summing to $612,812,325.32. A Department of Justice award coded outside IN is out. An award in Indiana from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Indiana (IN) excludes Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky, and Michigan. An Indianapolis-coded award with an Illinois place-of-performance tag is a different cell.

2,339 awards against $612,812,325.32 is a 2,339-award justice file, thicker than Mississippi’s DOJ join, still not a docket census. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 2339 as 2339 unique prosecutions, prison beds, or unique defendants. Department of Justice in Indiana is the both-keys table. Indiana federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Department of Justice is the agency book without an IN filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Northern and Southern District folklore is unpublished. Do not invent named courthouses in Indianapolis, South Bend, or Hammond. Unique defendants stay unpublished. Correlation is not causation: Indiana did not cause $612,812,325.32 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 015 × IN only.

2,339 rows are not unique prosecutions

$612,812,325.32 does not measure prosecutions, prison beds, or unique defendants. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 015 and an IN place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 2339 awards as a census of prosecutions, prison beds, or unique defendants. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Indiana federal spending or Department of Justice matched $612,812,325.32 and 2339, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighboring-state DOJ joins are other pairs, not addends.

Indiana, not an Indianapolis-only map

Place of performance IN is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Indiana (IN) excludes Illinois, Ohio, Kentucky, and Michigan. An Indianapolis-coded award with an Illinois place-of-performance tag is a different cell. Recipient address can differ from that state tag.

This packet does not split $612,812,325.32 by city, county, or named facility. 2339 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. Campaign-finance filings do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Justice obligations stay commitments

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $612,812,325.32 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Indiana confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Indiana’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 2,339 awards USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $612,812,325.32. Sharing a geography with Department of Justice does not mean FEC donations funded these awards.

Citing DOJ in Indiana

Cite USAspending.gov: Department of Justice (agency 015) obligated $612,812,325.32 on 2,339 awards coded to Indiana. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as prosecutions, prison beds, or unique defendants.

Prefer Department of Justice in Indiana if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Indiana federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to IN. Department of Justice is the 015 parent without the IN filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $612,812,325.32.

A usable footnote names Department of Justice, Indiana, $612,812,325.32, and 2339. The compact headline $612.8M is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $261,997.57 is $612,812,325.32 divided by 2339. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
