This Symposium examined how a multidoor criminal courthouse should look in the future, how evolving processes of restorative justice, problem solving courts, diversion sentencing, bail reform, and plea bargaining should be structured in the future, and what the role of judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, crime victims, defendants and the public should look like in this new future.

After a welcome address by CJCR Editor-in-Chief Daniel Kim and Andrea Schneider, our three panels featured academics and practitioners in the fields of dispute resolution and the criminal legal system who discussed innovations in plea bargaining and problem-solving courts.
