Browse FTC orders by status
These categories use the 1995 Federal Register policy statement, recorded dispositions and indexed Commission actions. Federal-court complaint extensions are not fully tracked.
- Unknown status — 7,469 records. These records have no usable issue date, so the order's duration cannot be calculated from the published data.
- Modified and still in effect — 460 records. A later Commission action modified the order while leaving it in effect.
- Set aside — 211 records. A later recorded Commission action set aside the order.
- Dismissed without an order — 640 records. The recorded disposition is a dismissal and does not identify an operative order.
- Pre-1995 orders presumed terminable — 3,596 records. Under the 1995 policy statement, these older orders are presumed terminable unless set aside; this classification is a research aid, not an official determination.
- Expired under the sunset policy — 371 records. The calculated order term has ended under the sunset policy, subject to extensions that this library does not fully track.
- Active until a stated date — 524 records. The recorded issue date and order term produce a future expiration date; court proceedings or later actions may affect that date.
