'Cyclic syndrome' of arrears and efficiency of Indian judiciary.

ABSTRACT: One of the four pillars of democracy in India is the judiciary, which in the recent past has experienced the 'cyclic syndrome' of arrears. There are 3.5 crore cases pending in the Indian judicial system that has a bearing on contract enforcement. A burgeoning stream of literature has reported the role of the judiciary in economic growth and development. In the wake of a given potential economic multiplier of the judicial system, examining the factors affecting the performance of the judiciary should merit attention. The present study juxtaposes jurisprudence and production theory, not frequently examined in the same gust by employing Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI), Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA), and regression for High Courts and Subordinate Courts
