Abstract
The District of Columbia Court Reorganization of 1970 was designed as model legislation to be emulated in other jurisdictions seeking swift and certain justice as a solution to their crime problems. Among other things, it abolishes the independent juvenile court and creates a Juvenile Branch of the Family Di vision of the Superior Court. It also provides for the assignment of all Superior Court judges to any branch of the court, includ ing the Juvenile Branch, as needed.Keywords
