Preferred term
court unification
Definition
- Court unification has been a major goal of judicial administration reform since jurist Roscoe Pound made his address to the American Bar Association (ABA) in 1906 on the “Causes of Popular Dissatisfaction with the Administration of Justice” (Pound 1937). Indeed, Donald Dahlin (1986: 4) claims that the “remedy of unification continues to be the basic prescription for court modernization.” The word unification covers many aspects of court reform.
