Enhancing Cooperation Through State–Federal Judicial Councils

by Jason A. Cantone

About this book

Jason A. Cantone explains how state and federal judges can use judicial councils to address shared administrative problems. The guide considers the practical value of regular communication between courts with different jurisdictions.

Topics include choosing matters for discussion, organizing a council, sustaining participation, educational activities and regional conferences. Examples show how cooperation can improve scheduling, access to records and the use of limited resources. Sample charters and meeting notices accompany a historical overview of state–federal judicial councils.
