Abstract:
This piece is builds upon prior studies from the authors which question the effectiveness of different types of judicial status hearings, mainly with respect to the frequency of such meetings. The authors analyze whether increasing the frequency of these meetings has a positive effect on desired outcomes and, as suggested in their prior works, the authors show that this is indeed the case.Keywords: judicial status hearings; drug court
