What does that even mean in this context?
The amount of cases to be processed doesn't change regardless of the order, and the amount of time and attention directed toward each shouldn't either, otherwise you have a much bigger issue.
- mvkel 2y agoUsing a benign example, imagine a day in traffic court, with cases distributed randomly. According to the schedule, Officer A must be present at 8am, 930am, 1005am, 142pm, 315pm for their relevant cases. Officer B must be present at 803am, 922am, etc through 4pm. You've now got two officers effectively locked up for a full day. Vs: Officer A cases, 8-12p Officer B cases, 1-4p
- lolinder 2y agoBut if the order stated by OP is accurate, they're not ordered by the officer who needs to show up, they're ordered by severity. Severity might correlate by officer, but probably won't.
- dwighttk 2y agoEach court picks their ordering… one might go by severity Another might, as a traffic court with pretty much a ton of the same citations, order for the witness’ schedule
- glenstein 2y ago>Vs: Officer A cases, 8-12p Officer B cases, 1-4p But that's not how it's currently done (at least I don't think and nobody in the comments or article is suggesting so), and escalation in severity doesn't have anything to do with officers or with how efficient you are with officer time.
