A-
provisional — 100% — 3.0 of 3 orders sound, per qwen3.8-27b; would rank in the top 16% of 51 graded judges, but ten orders are needed for a standing letter — 3 so far

On the assumption that the model is right — qwen3.8-27b's verdicts on a court's own orders matched a later appeal 76% of the time (104 of 136), graded on a curve: A is the top fifth of the judges graded under this model, F the bottom fifth; ++ / + / − / −− within the band. How the grade is made.
