Yesterday, we reviewed the Court’s yearly docket of employment law cases over on the civil side.  Today, we’re in the criminal docket – how many cases does the Court decide per year involving sexual offenses?  Since 1990, the Court has decided thirty-seven criminal cases involving sexual offense issues.

The Court decided one case in 1990, two in 1991 but none from 1992 to 1996.

The Court decided one case in 1997, one in 1999, two in 2000 and 2001, one in 2002 and two in 2003.

The Court decided five sexual offense cases in 2004, five in 2005, two in 2009 and two in 2010.

The Court decided two cases in 2011, five in 2012, two in 2013, three in 2014 and one per year in 2016 and 2017.
