Thanks for your inquiry.

A "disposition" is the final act closing a case (or disposing of the open matter). The description means the details of that disposition. For example, if the case was dismissed, that would appear under the description. If the person pled guilty, or was sentenced after trial, the exact terms of the sentence would be listed in the description.

I hope this helps, but feel free to email me at [email protected], if you have any other questions.
