In 2024, Court Watch Montgomery mobilized 66 community members to collect and enter data for over 1,700 domestic violence court hearings in Montgomery County, Maryland. Extensive initial training for 16 new volunteers and ongoing training for established volunteers empowered them to gather and enter detailed information highlighting both obstacles to justice for victims and promising legal practices. Volunteers donated over 4,000 hours collecting and entering data on topics such as protective order outcomes, judges' use of safe exits from the courtroom, and judges advising respondents to surrender firearms when granting final orders. Two reports were published based on this work by staff and volunteers. Court Watch Montgomery staff maintained regular communication with local and state court administrators as well as partner organizations to promptly flag issues and collaboratively resolve any problems to improve court processes and protect victims. Additionally, Court Watch Montgomery recruited 5 new board members from the community to uphold and advance our mission.
