In this episode with Stephen Dillard, we talk about the how, traditionally, judges have mostly been inaccessible to the public and how quite a few judges are now going against the grain and taking residence on Twitter. We also talk about Judge Dillard’s thoughts about the role of courts in closing the access to justice gap, and what courts are doing to be more proactive.
