Journal
of the National Association for Court Management
SUBJECT MATTER
Each issue of The Court Manager may
feature core articles on caseload management, technology, personal
skill development, and general management issues. One issue each year
deals with a single, dominant theme: an overview of the past NACM
annual educational conference. Other appropriate subjects include jury
management, alternative dispute resolution, facilities and records
management, public information and education, security, cultural
diversity, human resource management, fiscal matters of all types,
labor relations, planning, statistics and analysis, court reporting,
offender treatment, presentence and probation, and jurisdictional
issues--anything of value to a manager seeking to improve personal and
organizational effectiveness.
FORMAT
Articles may be 2,500 to
7,500 words long, submitted typed and double-spaced. Electronic
submissions are appreciated. Originals or high-quality reproductions
of photographs, graphs, charts, and forms in support of the text
always enhance an article’s presentation. A typical article might
follow this format, in whole or substantive part:
Definition of problem; statement of objectives.
Alternative solutions considered.
Implementation issues; developing consensus.
Cost of selected solution; source of funding.
Measuring impact; cost savings, improved service,
etc.
Conclusions, implications for the future.
