dc.description.notesGeneral Overview:Integrated Domestic Violence Courts (IDVCs) seek to streamline the legal process, by enabling a single judge to hear all civil, matrimonial and criminal matters concerning a family. This paper discusses the history and success of IDVCs in New York, where planning for the first specialised court of this kind began in 2001.<br/ ><br/ >The authors use a hypothetical case study to illustrate how these concerns have been addressed. They identify four key factors that are central to the effective operation of IDVCs: planning, training, case integrity, and victim advocacy. A key benefit of the IDVC process is that it enables judges to access more information, thereby making more consistent and appropriate orders. The authors suggest that judges in IDVCs are better able to see the whole picture, resulting in greater perpetrator accountability, as well as greater consideration of the battered woman’s wishes. As a result, IDVCs may help to resolve tensions within the domestic violence movement over how much decision-making authority the victim should have within the criminal justice system.en
