Maddy Hinrichs&#8217; study consisted of 78 cases of court observations, qualitative data analysis, and the utilization of existing research by scholars. She found that LFOs intrude on defendants\u2019 daily life- whether that be through confusion, delay of a case, or costing a defendant more of their time. These findings contribute to a greater need for research on how LFOs contribute to the decline of defendants\u2019 mental health, reinforce inequality under the legal system, and disrupt defendants\u2019 daily routines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Faculty Mentor:<\/strong><br>Brittany Martin, assistant professor of Criminology and Criminal Justice<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p><em>&#8220;As someone who will be attending law school and in turn, will become a criminal defense attorney, I believe it is important to fully immerse yourself in your work and interests if you are truly passionate.
