Oh man, that's the kind of judgement system that would swamp courts and waste even more taxpayer money. You'd have to have some serious metrics systems in place to make that effective, and even then, alot of it would be arbitrary. Would a statistical number be sufficient or a qualitative assessment? There is some grey areas on that one.
