Below, we analyze how this order has affected patent cases within the district, including the size and growth of each judge's patent docket over the last two years, how individual judges on the Waco wheel approach their patent dockets, specific judges' standing orders, referrals to senior and magistrate judges, and the recent issuance of an updated randomization order.
