Courts
Fair and expeditious delivery of justice is the goal of criminal courts. Judges and court administrators are responsible for management that supports this goal. Increasingly, managers also play key roles in special court-based programs that target offenders who commit drug offenses and domestic violence.
Rapidly changing technological developments in forensics and digital evidence demand that court practitioners and judges have a working familiarity and sometimes expertise in these emerging fields.
