occupation
Attorney
Proactive Management: Manage cases from day one with consistent, early interventions to control the process.
Trial Settings: Schedule multiple trial setting per month, with multiple cases set for trial. This reduces the possibility of juries going wasted for want of a case to try.
Eliminate Unnecessary Court Appearances: Reduce logistical burdens by making court events purposeful and streamlining appearances.
Efficient Scheduling: Attempt to group a lawyer's cases on the same day, and avoid unwarranted continuances
Promote Alternative Dispute Resolution: Encourage mediation, arbitration and settlement to keep simpler cases out of court.
Court-Bar Cooperation: Hold bar-bench meetings and involve stakeholders in process improvements.
Courts have rules to ensure judges and juries treat everyone fairly and impartially and that they apply the law equally to everyone.
Open Courts Doctrine: Most court proceedings are open to the public, which helps promote transparency and accountability.
Office of Court Administration (OCA): The OCA provides resources and information for the efficient administration of trial courts. It provides statistics and analysis of court information and case activity, descriptions of court system structure and jurisdiction, and reports and studies about the courts and judiciary.
Right to Appeal: If someone is unhappy with the outcome of their case, they are guaranteed the right to appeal to a higher court to review the decision.
Strict No-Contact Rules: Do not discuss cases privately with lawyers involved in a case outside of formal proceedings with all parties present.
Objective Decision-Making: Deliberately focus on facts and law to eliminate bias and stereotypes.
Fair Treatment for All: Treat all lawyers, clients, and witnesses with respect and avoid comments that suggest a decision is already made. Neutrality is essential for maintaining public trust in the legal system, as it reinforces commitment to justice and fairness.
Manage Perceptions: Be mindful of actions and words that could create an appearance of bias, even if unintended.
