Criminal Case Processing in Metropolitan Courts, 1976
In 1977 the National Center for State Courts, in
cooperation with the National Conference of Metropolitan Courts, began
a research and demonstration project on the delay in processing criminal
cases in major metropolitan
courts. The objectives were (1) to determine the scope and extent of
the delay in such courts, (2) to identify factors associated with the delay,
and (3) to suggest and ultimately test techniques that might work to
reduce the delay. The variables include geographic location, disposition
type, most serious charge against the defendant, and dates of arrest,
trial, disposition, and sentencing.
