Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Administrative Office of the Courts, 1969 During 1969, the Supreme Court wrote 67 opinions. Full Opinions were written in 65 cases, one of which was an advisory opinion, and two Opinions were per curiam. Of these opinions, 36 dealt with civil cases and 31 dealt with criminal cases. The court affirmed the lower court in 27 cases and took corrective action in 40 cases. The Supreme Court considered 102 petitions for certiorari from the Court of Appeals. With the appointment of three additional judges in July, 1969, the Court of Appeals is now fully staffed. The court, sitting in panels of three, considered 584 cases during 1969. This is only two more than the number considered in 1968. The great majority of the 496 appeals (255 civil and 241 criminal) came from the superior court. Sixty-nine cases came from the district court, 13 from the Industrial Commission and 6 from the Utilities Commission. The court affirmed the lower bodies in 403 cases and took corrective action in 179. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-04-28 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Administrative Office of the Courts, 1973 As explained in the foreword to the 1971 and 1972 Annual Reports most of the comparative analysis for those years was based upon the data from the 83 counties where the court strue ture was constant throughout the period of comparison. Some of the bar graphs were based solely on a comparison of these83 counties. This year the distinction between Group I and Group II counties has been eliminated, since all 100 counties have been under the new structure for three full years. All com mentary, tables and graphs are based upon data from all 100 counties. Although Superior Court graphs permit a five year comparison, District Court graphs will thus permit only a three year comparison. Although there are a number of statistical indicators that may be used in evaluating court performance, there is no single barometer that gives a weighted average of all factors. The more obvious factors to weigh in making year-to-year comparisons and relative rankings between counties and judicial districts are filings, dispositions, and the number of cases pending at the end of the year. Other useful measures are the pending ratios (the relation that the number of cases pending at year's end bears to the number of cases disposed of during the year) and the rate of disposition (the percentage of the year's filings which were disposed of during the year). Low pending ratios and high rates of disposition are positive measures. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-09 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Administrative Office of the Courts, 1968 A constitutional amendment adopted in 1962 provided the frame work for a unified court system in North Carolina. The 1963 Gen eral Assembly created a Courts Commission and charged it with the responsibility of preparing and drafting the legislation necessary for complete implementation of the new Judicial Article. This Com mission, composed largely oi legislative leaders and under the chair manship of Senator Lindsay C. Warren, Jr., immediately embarked upon its task. Its major production was recommended legislation which was enacted as The Judicial Department Act of This Act prescribed the organizational and operational details of the General Court of Justice and established an Administrative Office of the Courts. The 1962 Judicial Article provided for an Appellate Division consisting of the Supreme Court, a Superior Court Division and a District Court Division in the General Court of Justice. The 1965 Act provided for gradual implementation of the new court system. The schedule of activation is shown in Appendix I. Because of the increasing burden of appellate work, it became necessary to provide an additional court in the Appellate Division. The Constitution was again amended in 1965 to authorize the new appellate court. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Administrative Office of the Courts, 1967 In the trial division of the General Court of Justice, criminal cases are allocated on a jurisdictional basis. There is no jurisdictional division as to civil cases. The District Court Division has exclusive original jurisdiction of misdemeanors. The District Court is the proper division for the trial of civil cases where the amount in controversy is or less. It is also the forum for domestic relations and juvenile cases. N o jury is provided in the District Court for criminal trials. Each defendant has the right of appeal to the Superior Court and to trial de novo. Jury trial is provided, upon demand, in the District Court in civil matters, and appeal therefrom is to the Court of Appeals. There will be approximately 105-110 District Court Judges when the establishment of the new system is completed. The judges are elected to four-year terms. A Chief District Judge with very extensive administrative authority is designated in each district by the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. Specialized judgeships are authorized.

This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annual Report of the Administrative Office of the Courts, 1974 Although there are a number of statistical indicators that may be used in evaluating court performance, there is no single barometer that gives a weighted average of all factors. The more obviousfactors to weigh in making year-to-year comparisons and relative rankings between counties and judicial districts are filings, disposi tions, and the number of cases pending at the end of the year. Other useful measures are the pending ratios (the relation that the number of cases pending at year's end bears to the number of cases disposed of during the year) and the rate of disposition (the percentage of the year's filings which were disposed of during the year). Low pending ratios and high rates of disposition are positive measures. The statistics contained herein are case flow statistics and none are backlog or delay statistics. This report uses cases pend ing as one unit of analysis, but the term backlog will not be found herein and it is inaccurate to apply that term to the cases which are properly described as pending. A case which is pending may be two days or two years old. Backlog may be tentatively defined as those cases which have been pending disposition longer than an agreed upon standard of time for the average case of the same type in the same court. A delayed case would be any case which exceeded the agreed upon standard time-frame and such cases could also be described as backlogged. Even if an agreed upon standard time frame with supporting data was available, such data could only properly be used (as is the case with the data which is available) as a starting point for analysis. In any case, the Administrative Office does not now routinely collect data on the length of time required for the disposition of particular cases. Whatever the unit of analysis, whether cases pending, delayed cases, or pending ratios, a number of questions must be asked once the raw data is available. At what point in time is the data stated? Cases pending, for example, are stated as of December 31, 197 4; are they generally higher during a holiday season? What effect do the customs and practices of the local bar have upon courtroom and trial delays? What are the policies of the court, the bar, and district attorneys with respect to continuances? Is ther a well thought out system for the calendaring of cases? Are pre-trial re lease procedures working effectively? Is the waiver procedure for motor vehicle cases fully utilized? Are continuances caused by court congestion or are they sought after by the parties? What effect do sentencing practices have upon the rate of criminal appeals between the District and Superior Courts? How much court was held in the district and how often? (in some counties there are no more than two weeks of Superior Court each year.) What are the geographical dimensions of the judicial district? Are seats of court distant from one another, requiring a great deal of travel time by court officials? Are there sufficient courtrooms available when needed? Are the courtrooms located and designed so as to permit efficient dispatch of the court's business? How many cases counted as pending areessentially dead cases and will ultimately be no! Prossed or dismissed? (it may in fact be customary strategy to file a civil action knowing at the time that the case will never be tried; similarly, it may be a good strategy for the district attorney not to nol pros a case, although knowing that it will never be tried.) What is the extent of plea bargaining in the district? What is the settlement rate in the district? Has there been any illness among court officials? Are there adequate investigatory resources? Are law enforcement and expert witnesses available when needed? The above list is not exhaustive but is illustrative of the types of questions that must be explored in analyzing the statistical data for each county and district.
