Articles by Maurer Faculty

When I was wrapping up my final semester of law school, I was fretting about what I would do next.

Expressing my anxiety to our school’s Westlaw rep at the time, she asked me to reflect on my favorite parts of law school. That was easy: I loved any class where I could write a …

Using A Prediction Model In Forecasting Appeals, Paul A. Rake

IUSTITIA

Following the 1972 reorganization of the Indiana Court of Appeals into three panels serving defined geographical districts, the Court soon found itself floundering with too many unevenly distributed cases.

In response to these problems, the Court developed a project to deal with the future caseload by constructing a regression model to predict appeals. This model generated estimates of …
