现代政府通过一系列非同寻常的活动收集信息，并利用这些信息指导政策。无论是监测通胀的中央银行还是监测疾病的卫生机构，这些实体通常都会公开披露收集到的信息，以便其他人可以审查和评估他们的行动。但在许多方面，司法系统是一个明显的例外。在美国，一系列技术和财政障碍阻碍了人们大规模获取公共法庭记录--几乎排除了将其用于指导政策的可能性。然而，越来越多的经验性法律研究表明，对法院记录进行系统分析可以改进法律实践和司法。尽管许多法律界人士抵制量化的法律方法，但我们相信，即使是怀疑论者也会接受量化反馈--只要它是直截了当的、非政治性的和无可辩驳的。我们提供了这种反馈的一个例子，以及一个合作研究议程，以消除获取法庭记录的障碍，并使公众能够分析它们。
Modern governments gather information across an extraordinary range of activities and use this information to direct policy. Whether a central bank monitoring inflation or a health agency monitoring disease, these entities typically publicly disclose the information gathered so that their actions can be reviewed and evaluated by others. But in many respects, the justice system is a glaring exception. In the United States, a range of technical and financial obstacles blocks large-scale access to public court records—all but foreclosing their use to direct policy. Yet a growing body of empirical legal research demonstrates that systematic analyses of court records could improve legal practice and the administration of justice. And although much of the legal community resists quantitative approaches to law, we believe that even the skeptics will be receptive to quantitative feedback—so long as it is straightforward, apolitical, and incontrovertible. We offer an example of this kind of feedback as well as a collaborative research agenda to dismantle access barriers to court records and enable the public to analyze them.
