Abstract:

The Brief discusses the author's personal experience of Small Claims Court. As a lecturer in information technology, the author draws from her expertise in analysing technical systems to examine issues of usability in legal processes. Writing as a 'user' rather than as a practitioner of law, the author applies usability criteria of visibility, feedback, error detection and recovery, ease and efficiency of use, to critically analyse her interactions with the legal system.
