"Do US Circuit Courts' decisions on criminal appeals influence sentence lengths imposed by US District Courts? We explore the use of high-dimensional instrumental variables to estimate this causal relationship. Using judge characteristics as instruments, we implement two-stage models on court sentencing data for the years 1991 through 2013. We find that Democratic, Jewish judges tend to favor criminal defendants, while Catholic judges tend to rule against them. We also find from our experiment that prosecutors backlash to circuit court rulings while district court judges comply. Methodologically, we demonstrate the applicability of deep instrumental variables to legal data"--
