Carolyn B. Kuhl and William F. Highberger of the Superior Court of California, were featured on the “Order in the Court" podcast by the Bolch Judicial Institute of Duke Law School. The episode, Streamlining Justice: A Unified Approach to Civil Case Management, explored the challenges of managing increasingly complex civil caseloads in state and federal courts. 

Hosted by Judge Paul W. Grimm, the David F. Levi Professor of the Practice of Law and Director of the Bolch Judicial Institute at Duke Law School, the episode explores the challenges of managing increasingly complex civil caseloads in state and federal courts. The judges introduce their concept of a “Unified Theory of Case Management,” which aims to streamline court procedures through a set of core, case-neutral goals, strategies, and toolkits. Their discussion emphasizes the importance of efficient, fair, and cost-effective resolution of cases, aiming to ensure the judicial process is perceived as fair by all parties involved.
