Practice in the 4th CircuitEdit

From 2000 to 2008, the Court had the highest rate of non-publication (92%) on the Federal Circuit.<ref name="Aaron S. Bayer">Template:Citation</ref>

The Chief Justice is always assigned to the Fourth Circuit as the circuit justice, due to Richmond's close proximity to Washington, D.C.Template:EfnTemplate:Citation needed

The Fourth Circuit is considered an extremely collegial court. By tradition, the judges of the Fourth Circuit come down from the bench following each oral argument to greet the lawyers.<ref>Template:Cite journal</ref><ref>Template:Cite news</ref>
