How this list is built. A record is listed under a program when the filings of its case, taken together, name that program at least three times in their text and at least one-twentieth as often as the program they name most; documents from the same court docket are counted as one case. A case can appear under more than one program. Records whose case names no relief program are listed under Other pandemic litigation. The census is mechanical and is re-run with every build.
