dc.description.notesGeneral Overview: :This evaluation of the specialist court model used at Campbelltown and Wagga Wagga, in NSW, Australia, found that while rates of reporting and charging did not change, victims and stakeholders were generally supportive of the model.<br/ ><br/ >The evaluation did not find clear evidence of an increased number of reports of domestic violence incidents or an increase in offenders being charged following the introduction of the court model. Guilty pleas did not increase and charges withdrawn or dismissed did not decrease following introduction of the model. There was an increase in the use of bonds as a penalty at Campbelltown but no change in the penalties imposed at Wagga Wagga. There was some evidence of an improvement in time taken to finalise prosecutions. Victims reported that they were largely satisfied with the response from police and victims advocates, but were often critical about court procedures and outcomes. Stakeholders thought the pilot was successful and the initiatives should be expanded.en
