State Judiciary Seeking Input Via Online Survey

The Hawai`i State Judiciary is inviting the public to provide input on the state’s court system by taking an anonymous online survey.

The survey is available at www.statejudiciaryplan2012.org until Aug. 31. It takes approximately 15 minutes to complete, judiciary officials said.

The results from the survey will be used to develop a strategic plan that will contains recommendations for Chief Justice Mark Recktenwald on how the Judiciary could most effectively achieve its mission of administering justice in an impartial, efficient and accessible manner. The plan would guide the agency through 2020, Judiciary officials said.

Officials are looking for input from the public, attorneys and other stakeholders in the legal process.

Recktenwald views the strategic planning process as one of the most important initiatives being introduced during his term as chief justice, the department said.
