* Case disposal refers to claims which have been made successfully or dismissed
^ On or before 2023, the definition of case disposal was based on party disposal, i.e. a case was treated as disposed of once one party in a case had been disposed of. Since 2024, the definition has been refined to the effect that a case is considered as disposed of only when all the parties involved have been disposed of
