Growth of the older population overall and
increased heterogeneity among older adults have significant implications
for the courts and the criminal justice system. This emerging
field of study encompasses issues related to elders as litigants,
victims, and offenders. The judiciary, as an institution,
is now facing an increase in the numbers o folder people in the
courthouse, often propelled by underlining health issues unrecognized
by individual judges. Our research is the first to explore these
issues and to address how courts can respond more effectively. Our
research also includes the growing problems of abuse and domestic
violence, neglect and exploitation of older adults in home, community
and institutional settings.
