Justice System Journal Articles

NCSC’s Justice System Journal (JSJ) was first published by the Institute for Court Management in 1974 and is the only refereed, scholarly journal devoted to the topic of judicial administration, broadly understood.  JSJ tackles subjects of interest to practitioners and scholars alike, such as court security, court administration and management, problem-solving courts, state and federal appellate procedures, and judicial ethics.

Jona Goldschmidt.  Judicial Ethics and Assistance to Self-Represented Litigants.  This article examines the course of progression courts have made in attempt to increase the access to justice for pro se litigants, arguing that the increase in the self-represented litigant population in the courts is a widespread and continuing trend and one that is reflected in rule changes enacted in the last decades.  (Vol. 28, No. 3)

Horowitz.  The Washington State Access to Justice Technology Principles.  This article presents the experience of Washington's efforts to create a set of principles that would create a balance between the benefits of technology and any effects such benefits would have on access to justice.  (Vol. 27, No. 3)
