Notes:	This article outlines the implementation of a trial program for domestic violence courts in some areas of New South Wales, Australia. The article reports on a study conducted over a four-year period from 2008 into whether the trial impacted on criminal justice outcomes such as an increase in the proportion of guilty pleas, an increase in penalties such as bonds and imprisonment, and a decrease in trial delays. The test sites were Campbelltown, Macquarie Fields, and Wagga Wagga Local Area Commands while the rest of NSW was used as the control group.
