Long-Range Planning Survey of Federal Judges, 1992: [United States]
Description
In October 1992, the Federal Judicial Center surveyed nearly
all federal judges on a wide range of issues of concern to the federal
courts. The survey was conducted for two purposes: to inform the
deliberations of the Judicial Conference Committee on Long-Range
Planning and to provide information for the Center's
congressionally-mandated study of structural alternatives for the
federal courts of appeals. Although the purposes were distinct, the
areas of interest overlapped, resulting in a survey instrument that
addressed many issues at differing levels of detail. The survey
questions dealt with the nature and severity of problems in the federal
courts, structure and relationships, jurisdiction size and resources,
administration and governance, discovery, juries, criminal sanctions,
deciding appeals in the current system, availability and compensation
of counsel, and methods of civil dispute resolution.
