: court-o-rama.orgL.A. Traffic Court: The Worser of Two Evils Just Got Better
By Anne Skove, Esq.
What's worse than L.A. traffic?
L.A. traffic court.
The backlog, as you can imagine, resembles rush hour on a Friday afternoon. Arraignments only take a few minutes to process, but there are many, many cases! The court tends to 500-1000 in a typical month.
This month was the exception: 3000 cases were disposed of by buckling (ha) down. Temporarily vacant courtrooms were given the green light (ha again) to house traffic cases, thus speeding (wow, this is fun! So glad we just added a "traffic" tag!) up caseflow. The 3000 represents about a month's backlog.
