Abstract:
This manuscript focuses on the Italian judicial system and on how to shape a policy reform aimed at increasing court efficiency, taking the budget externalities generated by this production process into account. On the one hand, the authors identify the benchmarks and main drivers of judicial inefficiency, while, on the other hand, they show how incorrect model definition may mislead policy makers tackling this reform process, based on an analysis of the Directional Distance Function with and without bad outputs.
