Professor Justin Sevier’s article, A [Relational] Theory of Procedure, 104 Minnesota Law Review 1978 (2020), proffers an updated model of the institutional legitimacy of legal tribunals informed by insights from experimental social psychology. It reports the results from three original psychology experiments which demonstrate the perceived legitimacy of legal dispute resolution is enhanced when the public perceives an alignment between the goals of a legal dispute and the perceived priorities of the procedure that resolves the dispute.
