INDIANAPOLIS – Two professors at Indiana University’s Kelley School of Business have been appointed to the newly formed Indiana Innovation Initiative, established by the Indiana Supreme Court.
Loretta H. Rush, chief justice of the Indiana Supreme Court, issued an order on Sept. 24 establishing the initiative and task forces on family law and technology. Those involved are expected to produce a report of their findings and recommendations to the court by July of 2021.
“Indiana has been a national leader in justice reform in areas such as evidence-based decision-making, pretrial release, problem-solving courts, and commercial courts,” Rush said. “Additional innovation opportunities now present themselves in Indiana, designed to make Indiana’s system of justice more efficient, less expensive, and easier to navigate while continuing to ensure that justice is fairly administered and the rights of all litigants protected.”
Scott Shackelford, associate professor of business law and ethics, Cybersecurity Program Chair at IU Bloomington and director of the Ostrom Workshop Program on Cybersecurity and Internet Governance (pictured left); and Roger Schmenner, professor emeritus of operations management and Kelley’s former associate dean at Indianapolis (pictured right), are joining more than 35 others on this project. They will primarily contribute to the initiative’s task force on technology. (more…)
