This publication provides a synthesis of the relevant empirical research on the civil justice process released from 2008 to 2013. In addition to IAALS research, it contains studies conducted by a variety of organizations and individuals, including the Federal Judicial Center, the National Center for State Courts, the RAND Corporation, and others.
It encapsulates the findings from 39 separate studies into a readable compendium, organized by topic for ease of reference (generally following how a case moves through the civil court process, but also including aspects that span all phases of litigation).
