Summary:

As it seeks to reduce federal expenditures and balance the budget, Congress expects all federal agencies to cut operating costs wherever possible. The effort to keep costs down has focused attention on whether the federal judiciary is operating as efficiently and effectively as possible. This report reviews the internal oversight of administrative operations within the federal judiciary, including those of local courts. Specifically, GAO examines how the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts assessed the efficiency of local court operations and promoted the use of efficient administrative practices within the judiciary.
