Berkeley Judicial Institute (BJI) Details
The Berkeley Judicial Institute (BJI) will fill a long-standing need to establish an effective bridge between the legal academy and the judiciary for the primary purpose of promoting judicial integrity and judicial independence. Judicial integrity encompasses professional competence, high ethical standards, objectivity, impartiality, respect for due process, and judicial wellness. Judicial independence includes avoidance of political influence, understanding of and respect for the separation of powers, and support for judges facing retribution for their decisions. BJI will also focus on supporting and expanding innovation in education for and about the judiciary and developing best practices for efficient case management and judicial administration.
