Rule 37.03 Rules - Construction

This rule sets the overall goal for how ordinance violation cases should be handled. Courts should look at every part of Rule 37 with this goal in mind, making sure cases move forward without unnecessary delays or costs.

In practice, this means judges and courts should avoid dragging out cases or making them more expensive than they need to be. If there's ever a question about how to apply a specific part of Rule 37, the answer should favor whatever gets the case resolved fairly, quickly, and cheaply for everyone involved.
