Public Opinion on the Courts in the United States, 2000
This study centered on two questions fundamental to
understanding public opinion about the courts: (1) Do African
Americans, Latinos, and Whites view the state courts differently? and
(2) What impact did recent direct court experience have on people's
opinions about state courts? Between March 22, 2000, and May 3, 2000,
interviewers conducted 1,567 telephone interviews with randomly
selected United States residents. Variables include respondents'
gender, race, age, education, and other demographic information,
respondents' perception of the fairness of local courts, including
whether African Americans and Latinos were discriminated against,
whether the respondent or a member of the respondent's household had
been involved with the courts in the past 12 months, and if so, how
fairly that case was conducted.
