The Arizona case processing time standards seek to establish reasonable expectations for how long different types of cases should take to be resolved by the courts. The Arizona Judicial Branch publishes these standards so that courts, attorneys, and the public are all aware of these expectations. The time standards help courts define achievable goals, provide clear timelines for case preparation and management, and promote transparency about what the public can expect from Arizona’s judicial system. There are case processing time standards for juvenile, general, and limited jurisdiction courts.
