Agreement with other justices
Agreement rates appear once at least 10 decided cases in the October Term 2011 (2011–2012) have full vote records. See the term statistics page for court-wide numbers.
Methodology
Two justices agree in a case when they land on the same side of the judgment: voting with the majority, including concurrences, or in dissent together.
Vote records come from Oyez. A case counts only when at least 8 substantive votes are on record, so partial data can understate coverage but a vote is never invented. Recusals are listed but left out of agreement rates.
