The new Courts Law essay comes from new JOTWELL contributor Pamela Bookman (Temple), reviewing Robin Effron, Ousted: The New Dynamics of Privatized Procedure and Judicial Discretion (B.U. L. Rev. forthcoming), which describes how private procedure and
judicial control come together.
In my view, this endorsement by the GC
comes to strengthen the Commission's
control over its own docket and case load, while still guaranteeing effective
judicial review for aggrieved parties (ie complainants) in a sufficient degree.
