Therapeutic Jurisprudence And Problem Solving Courts, Bruce J. Winick
Therapeutic Jurisprudence And Problem Solving Courts, Bruce J. Winick
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This article offers a number of suggestions concerning how judges should act in problem solving court contexts to spark the motivation of the individual to achieve rehabilitation and increase compliance with treatment. The proposals are derived from psychological literature in other contexts but further analysis and empirical research is needed. The article finds that therapeutic jurisprudence can contribute to the functioning of problem solving courts which can refine therapeutic jurisprudence approaches.
Specialized Courts: Not A Cure-All, Phylis Skloot Bamberger
Specialized Courts: Not A Cure-All, Phylis Skloot Bamberger
Fordham Urban Law Journal
This article argues that while specialized courts, such as drug courts, dealing with defendants charged with crimes are of critical importance, sole or primary reliance on specialized courts are not sufficient. Instead, centralized resources should be available as necessary to all courts in a county or city in which alternatives to incarceration are possible, although not automatic because not all defendants are serviced by specialized court.
