Book excerpt: This is the fourth and final article of a series of four articles describing the evaluation results for Hawaii's mandatory Court-Annexed Arbitration Program (CAAP), a program with a jurisdictional limit $150,000, much higher than most other state programs. This evaluation examines the effectiveness of Hawaii's Court Annexed Arbitration Program (CAAP), which is a mandatory, non-binding procedure for tort cases valued at $150,000 or less. The major goals of the program are to reduce litigant costs, reduce time to disposition, and improve or maintain the level of satisfaction for litigants and attorneys. Hawaii's Court-Annexed Arbitration Program has reduced pretrial discovery; reduced litigation costs for private litigants, increased the pace of litigation, provided litigants with a fair, just, and satisfactory 'day-in-court,' encouraged early and less expensive settlements, increased the percentage of cases that terminate each year, and may have reduced the number of trials. Through comparison of cases randomly assigned to CAAP to those cases that went through traditional litigation, the study found that under the arbitration program, the average plaintiff saves $496 in discovery expenses, and the average defendant saves $266. Lawyers' fees are on average $159 less per defendant whose case is sent to arbitration. CAAP cases also experience quicker disposition times, reaching disposition almost four months earlier than non-CAAP cases. Most lawyers who participated in the program were satisfied with the program and with the arbitrators.

Book Using Court Annexed Arbitration to Reduce Litigant Costs and to Increase the Pace of Litigation

Download or read book Using Court Annexed Arbitration to Reduce Litigant Costs and to Increase the Pace of Litigation written by John Barkai and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second of a series of four articles describing the evaluation results for Hawaii's mandatory Court-Annexed Arbitration Program (CAAP), a program with a jurisdictional limit $150,000, the highest jurisdictional limit of any state court-annexed arbitration program in the country. The Hawaii program is also unique because its primary goal is cost reduction for litigants, which is achieved through program features designed to limit pretrial discovery. The article begins with a discussion and literature review of pretrial delay, litigation costs, and lawyer's fees, and then covers the goals, history, and a description of Hawaii's arbitration program. Data collected for the evaluation are drawn from five sources: (1) a case record database maintained by the Arbitration Administrator; (2) surveys of lawyers and arbitrators, conducted after a case closes by settlement, award or dismissal, sampling cases in arbitration and in the comparison group; (3) surveys of lawyers conducted after an arbitration appeal is concluded; (4) a general survey of the lawyers most active in CAAP; and (5) interviews and focus group sessions with lawyers, arbitrators, insurance industry representatives and others involved in tort litigation. More than 1,000 cases have been surveyed. This article only reports on data from surveys from the arbitration cases and not the randomized control group because at the time this article was written, too few cases from the control group sample had terminated The results reported here come from returned surveys from CAAP. The majority of lawyers and arbitrators reported that in the CAAP program discovery was voluntarily reduced and the reduction did not affect the outcome of the case. Discovery costs for the majority of lawyers surveyed were below $400, and for approximately 90% of settlements discovery costs were below $1,000. A little more than one-third of the awards had discovery costs in excess of $1,000. Hawaii's Court Annexed Arbitration Program appears to be meeting its goals of reducing litigant costs, increasing pace, and maintaining the satisfaction of participants. CAAP is delivering arbitration largely within the time frame prescribed by its rules, and is doing so to the satisfaction of the majority of lawyers.
