 Abstract:
 
Despite a general or anecdotal knowledge of the crimes of judges in the United States, a concrete understanding of the breadth of judicial corruption, and the consequences it presents for judges, the court system, and the public has not been established. This lack of knowledge may be due to the sheer size of the American judicial system, the lack of a readily accessible source for valid and reliable information to track judicial misconduct, or simply the unwillingness of legal and criminal justice scholars to include the topic in more broad discussions of white-collar crime. In light of these deficits, this article seeks to accomplish three tasks: (1) compare and contrast how the state and Federal judicial oversight systems are arranged to monitor and respond to individual acts of judicial corruption; (2) investigate the incidence and prevalence of judicial corruption, with a focus on economic crimes; and (3) assess the viability and impact of criminal, administrative, and civil sanctions against judges found guilty of violating criminal statutes.
