Session Submission Type: Complete Thematic Panel
Rural communities face unique challenges related to access to justice, diversion opportunities, and legal services. This panel includes recent research on pre-trial procedures, courts, and corrections in various rural American communities. Specifically, presenters will discuss 1) diversion collaborations in rural Nevada; 2) a critical examination of the impact of a burglary statute in rural Tennessee; 3) a comparison of financial punishments in rural and urban New York courts; and 4) findings from the development of a comprehensive database of rural American jails. Each presenter will discuss data, methods, results, and the practical and theoretical implications of their research.
