| 520 | |a Plea Bargaining is a central feature of the American criminal justice system. However, it did not exist in China until recently. In order to deal with caseload pressures and optimize legal resources, China started its own version of speedy trial and plea bargaining programs in 2014 and then expanded these two programs to national practice in 2018. Using a unique experiment conducted by the Supreme People’s Court and the Supreme People’s Procuratorate in China, I applied a difference-in-differences design to evaluate the reforms using data on 19,955 DUI cases tried in a pilot city and a control city located in Fujian Province, China. My results show that these programs helped to shorten the criminal disposition time in the pilot city. However, there is little evidence to support the proposition that speedy trials and plea bargaining resulted in leniency for defendants as measured by probation decisions as well as sentences that defendants served in jail. Finally, empirical results show that victims were less likely to be compensated after these two programs were carried out. | ||
