The estate at low orbit: the courthouse continent in the far field, the clock rack, docket stack, settlement field and ledger parked on an arc in front, lit from the north-west.

Do I file, settle, or fight?

The record as a place. Every figure carries its denominator and its gate.

What it costs, and how often the number held.

No point reserve is published. What is served is the interval, and how often the amount paid fell inside it.

    held their reserve band once the band was widened to what the record supports.

The four estate measures (/v3/home)

Appeals decided on the merits: 1,314,574 of 2,327,310 — FJC appellate terminations, numbered circuits · gate unknown · receipt:/ · home/_shop_window/estate_measures.html (Courts row) · room /v3/home/merits-share.

Patent chain-of-title coverage: 6,757,195 of 8,044,908 — granted utility patents with a recorded assignment · gate unknown · served_truth:patent-chain-assignment-coverage-share → 83.99% · route /fragments/hub_ip/destination/chain.

Patents pledged as collateral: 3,033,654 of 24,951,440 — patents carrying a recorded security interest · gate unknown · room /v3/ip/collateral. (Not in the fold: three tiles is the cap; it is here.)

TTAB oppositions contested: 22,105 of 57,190 — mature oppositions that were contested at all · gate unknown · served_truth:ttab-settle-propensity-population-opp-contested-share · route /fragments/hub_ip/destination/ttab.

The settlement field (the story's first scene)

12 recorded amounts from the served reserve backtest, each drawn as its p25–p75 interval on a log-dollar axis with the amount actually paid marked against it; 6 of 12 fall inside their own band. Source receipt:/fragments/hub_exposure/reserve. Band held (widened) 81.2% of 500 matters · band held (original width) 47.6% of 744 recorded amounts from 114 opinions · point reserve withheld (data-insufficient).

The judiciary (the story's second scene, /v3/courts)

94 district courts (every one, in the record) · 13 courts of appeals (every circuit, in the record) · 17,287 appellate opinions in 2024 across 14 circuits · largest circuit: 9th Cir., 2,793 of 17,287 opinions. Seats from /hub/courts/hierarchy.json (litan.courts.neutral-navigation.v1); the four territories without an AlbersUSA inset (GU, NMI, PR, VI) stand on a shelf south-west of the mainland — a designed placement, not geography.

What this does not say

No court carries a speed score or a venue rank; the map shows where, never who is faster. A band that held is not a point estimate. A contested share is not a win rate. Register count is a watch signal, not a distress score. The gate word on the four measures is the word the app prints today (data-v3c-gate="unknown"): the producers declare no gate, and this mock does not invent one.

What M1 does not prove

Bloom (UnrealBloomPass is vendored only against the r168 tree, not 0.185.1 — glow here is emissive + fresnel + DOM halo, no post). The estate map canvas (M3). Widget states beyond value/withheld (M4). Hardware frame time: what is printed above is what this browser measured; the 16.7 ms bar is judged on the M5 in the operator's pane. A gate vocabulary: the producers print unknown, so the dot is muted and the word is theirs.
