State Court Reform: Progress and Problems.

Abstract

This work discusses the status of state court reform in the United States ostensibly as of 1978. (Some data are only as current as 1976.) It divides court reform into three areas for study: (1) organizational restructuring of the courts themselves; (2) organizational restructuring and consolidation of the management and administrative functions; and (3) the consolidation of the fiscal functions of the state courts. The study concludes that state court reform has been extraordinary since 1940 but that indications are that the momentum is waning and that those responsible for such reform must become aware of this phenomenon and attempt to counter it through long range planning.
