Understanding the Court Experience

Research Study Overview

The Lake County court does not understand why people do not attend court as scheduled. Importantly, not appearing to court as schedule can impact plea agreements, conviction status, sentencing, and future detention if arrested, again.
 

Justice System Partners (JSP) is working to understand the barriers people face to return to court. The goal is to learn more about why people struggle to get to court and help build programs and services that might help people appear as scheduled.
