Reforming Justice
Adequate budgeting of the judiciary is critical for the effective delivery of justice. This brief presents trends in judicial budgets. Courts account for less than 2 percent of total government expenditure on average, with significant portions dedicated to fixed costs such as salaries, thereby limiting investments in technological advancements essential for improving judicial efficiency. This brief identifies three major trends in judicial budgeting reforms: increasing autonomy for the judiciary in budget management, accountability for budget execution at the court level, and a shift toward performance-based budgeting models. These reforms aim to bolster the judiciary's operational efficiency and public perception, ultimately linking adequate judicial funding to enhanced social and economic outcomes. The findings emphasize the necessity for judicial leaders to continuously advocate for resources by demonstrating the judiciary’s integral role in maintaining law and order, promoting democracy, and fostering societal stability.

Adequate budgeting of the judiciary
is critical for the effective delivery of justice. This
brief presents trends in judicial budgets. Courts account
for less than 2 percent of total government expenditure on
average, with significant portions dedicated to fixed costs
such as salaries, thereby limiting investments in
technological advancements essential for improving judicial
efficiency. This brief identifies three major trends in
judicial budgeting reforms: increasing autonomy for the
judiciary in budget management, accountability for budget
execution at the court level, and a shift toward
performance-based budgeting models. These reforms aim to
bolster the judiciary's operational efficiency and
public perception, ultimately linking adequate judicial
funding to enhanced social and economic outcomes. The
findings emphasize the necessity for judicial leaders to
continuously advocate for resources by demonstrating the
judiciary’s integral role in maintaining law and order,
promoting democracy, and fostering societal stability. |
