The
1999-2000 edition of the Report on Trends in the State Courts
tested a different format for providing content. The
principal report was shortened to enable a quick review by
constituents. In addition, 19 supplemental articles, many
written by authors recruited from outside the National Center
for their particular knowledge or insight, were provided online
to augment the contents of the principal report or to cover
other timely subjects that the principal report did not
address.
