The dispositions report refreshed after six days and adds about twenty Fairbanks closures

Alaska Court System

The Alaska Court System's criminal dispositions report now carries the footer stamp Data updated 10/12/2026 at 4:00 am and the header Case Closed Between: 9/1/2026 to 10/12/2026, after six consecutive days stamped 10/05/2026. The file runs to 237 pages, against 191. Read in full for the four Interior court prefixes, it carries 182 distinct Fairbanks case numbers, 11 at Nenana, 6 at Delta Junction and none at Healy.

Nineteen further Fairbanks closures and one at Nenana carry closing dates between Oct. 5 and Oct. 8. Among them: 4FA-25-01792CR, disposed Oct. 5, in which two counts of assault are recorded as Guilty Conviction After Guilty Plea and four further counts are recorded as dismissed by prosecution; 4FA-26-00387CR, disposed Oct. 6, in which two counts of assault in the fourth degree causing fear of injury, one count of driving under the influence and one count of violating a condition of release for a felony are all recorded as Guilty Conviction After Guilty Plea; 4FA-26-01025CR, disposed Oct. 6, in which unlawful contact in violation of a court order, driving under the influence and violating conditions of release are recorded as Guilty Conviction After Guilty Plea with seven further counts dismissed; 4FA-25-00957CR, disposed Oct. 5, criminal nonsupport, recorded as Guilty Conviction After Guilty Plea; and 4FA-26-01354CR, disposed Oct. 6, driving under the influence, recorded as Guilty Conviction After Guilty Plea. The remainder are dismissals.

The Fairbanks column rose by twenty-nine distinct case numbers while nineteen Fairbanks cases in the file carry closing dates inside the seven days the window gained. Either the file has added ten Fairbanks closures dated on or before Oct. 4 that were not in the previous version, or one of the two counts is wrong. This report states both figures and asserts neither.

Weekly charges report: 39 Fairbanks cases, 4 at Nenana, 2 at Delta Junction, none at Healy for a seventeenth week

Alaska Court System

The Alaska Court System's weekly criminal charges report carries the stamp Report Run Date: 10/11/2026 9:00 pm and the window 10/5/2026 to 10/11/2026, across 56 pages. Read for the four Interior court prefixes, it lists 39 cases at Fairbanks, 4 at Nenana, 2 at Delta Junction and no Healy section at all, which is a seventeenth consecutive week. The word Healy does not appear anywhere in the report this week; last week it appeared three times as the offence location on a case filed at Nenana.

Three Fairbanks cases were filed on Sunday, Oct. 11: 4FA-26-02066CR, 4FA-26-02067CR and 4FA-26-02068CR, all carried above. No case was added to any earlier day in the window since the previous run. The Nenana cases are 4NE-26-00100CR filed Oct. 7, 4NE-26-00101CR and 4NE-26-00102CR filed Oct. 8 and 4NE-26-00103CR filed Oct. 10. The Delta Junction cases are 4DJ-26-00061CR filed Oct. 5 and 4DJ-26-00062CR filed Oct. 9.

The offence-location column records 79 charge lines at Fairbanks, 4 at North Pole, 8 at Delta Junction and 4 at Nenana, and none at Fort Wainwright, Eielson, Salcha, Minto, Anderson, Ester, Two Rivers, Moose Creek or Healy. Eleven cases in the Fairbanks area carry no charging document at the time of reading, four of them with no docket entries at all. The weekly window closes at 9 p.m. and is therefore short of its own last filing day.
