Disputes that once were resolved either informally in the family or within the community are now handled mainly by courts, which strains government agency resources. The authors offer provocative suggestions for a thorough overhaul of American state and local courts, one that better fits the needs of a twenty-first century legal system.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReimagining Courts\u003c\/i\u003e recommends a triage process based upon case characteristics, litigant goals, and resolution processes. Courts must fundamentally reorganize their business processes around the concept of the litigant as a customer.  Each adjudication process that the authors propose requires a different case management process and different amounts of judicial, staff, and facility resources. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReimagining Courts\u003c\/i\u003e should spark much-needed debate.
