Today the Center is a nationally recognized research center that conducts, synthesizes, and disseminates empirical research on a wide range of judicial selection issues. The center acts as a clearinghouse of information on judicial selection for state court administrators, lawmakers, the media, the legal and academic communities, and court reform organizations.
