Abstract
Appellate courts—both state and federal—have experienced dramatic increases in court business since 1960. A popular policy to meet this demand has been to encourage litigants to end their appeals short of decision by the judges. Few of these programs have been evaluated; and of those few the evidence is either insufficient to support claims of effectiveness, or demonstrate that some preappeal procedures do not work.
