One Stupid Bitch

Is this "it"?

No, I have not. I have had a few speeding tickets in my life. Not one was unwarranted. I wasn't happy about them. But I knew I was speeding.


Then let's consider this.

Approximately 1 percent of all civil cases filed in federal court are resolved by trial. The jury trial disposition rate is approximately 0.7 percent, and the bench trial disposition rate is even lower.

Most civil cases are settled out of court because both parties realize that it is the most efficient way to resolve disputes.

According to American Judges Association, as many as 97 percent of civil cases that are filed are resolved other than by a trial. While some of these cases are dismissed or are resolved through other means, the vast majority of the cases settle.

Our civil courts would likely collapse or be backed up for years without pre-trial agreements.

Settlement is faster and cheaper.

Even if they are relatively simple, trials usually take several months to resolve from start to finish.

Not only does this take extra time (and resources), but it also costs both parties more money in legal fees.
