Abstract:
Judge Stephens’ recollection of his experience in the legal profession initially focuses on trial lawyers. Over its course, he shifts to other changes introduced in the greater judicial system since he started trying cases in 1970, such as citizens’ participation as jurors and increased time frame for trying medical malpractice lawsuits. His reflection on these changes compels him to use them as evidence for why jury trials need to be streamlined, lest it impact the future of the jury trial and trial lawyer in the United States.
