THE FIRST THREE ARTICLES ARE CASE STUDIES OF INDIVIDUAL JUDGES WHO HAVE DEVOTED MAJOR PARTS OF THEIR CAREERS TO COURT ADMINISTRATION: FEDERAL JUDGES JOHN J. PARKER AND WILLIAM J. CAMPBELL, AND NEW YORK STATE JUDGE BERNARD BOTEIN. THE FOURTH ARTICLE REPORTS ON A NATIONAL SURVEY OF PRESIDING JUDGES' PERCEPTIONS OF THE WORK OF TRIAL COURT ADMINISTRATORS AND SEEKS TO EXPLAIN THE BASES FOR DIFFERENCES IN JUDICIAL PERCEPTIONS. THE FINAL ARTICLE, BASED ON A SURVEY OF NEW JERSEY TRIAL COURT JUDGES, CATEGORIZES TRIAL JUDGES BY INCENTIVE TYPES AND CONSIDERS HOW DIFFERENCES IN MOTIVATION AFFECT THE JUDGES' ATTITUDES TOWARD COURT ADMINISTRATION. COMMON THEMES IN THE ARTICLES ARE POINTED OUT IN AN INTRODUCTORY SECTION, WHICH ALSO DRAWS CONCLUSIONS ABOUT JUDGES AND COURT REFORM. REFERENCE IS MADE TO THE CONCEPT OF THE OUTSIDE STRATEGY, I.E., THE NEED FOR JUDGES INTERESTED IN COURT REFORM TO GO OUTSIDE THE TRADITIONAL JUDICIAL PROCESS, PERSUADING LEGISLATORS TO AMEND STATUTES, VOTERS TO ENACT NEW CONSTITUTIONAL ARTICLES, AND OTHER JUDGES TO ADOPT NEW PROCEDURES. FOR SEPARATE ABSTRACTS OF THE ARTICLES ON INCENTIVES AND PERCEPTIONS OF COURT ADMINISTRATORS, SEE NCJ-45125 AND 45126, RESPECTIVELY. (AUTHOR ABSTRACT MODIFIED-LKM)
