| dc.description.notes | "Published in association with the Australian Institute of Judicial Administration."<br/ >General Overview: :This Australian journal article discusses some issues around problem-solving courts and therapeutic jurisprudence, with particular reference to the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) Family Violence Intervention Program (FVIP).<br/ ><br/ >Discussion: :The author notes that while the FVIP is a specialist court, it does not practice therapeutic justice. She notes that specialist courts for drug offenders and the mentally ill attempt to divert offenders, while domestic violence courts are designed to increase rates of conviction and punishment. While the criminal justice system is not the solution to the problem of domestic violence, it does provide victims with a sense of justice. Problem solving courts often incorporate judicial monitoring of the offender post-conviction but this may be the role of community corrections services. Specialist knowledge is crucial to specialist courts but judicial officers must take care to avoid the appearance of bias. Similarly, information exchange is valuable but confidentiality issues must be considered. Victims value the focus on victim support, safety and advocacy that a specialist court can provide. | en |
