Answer to Question 2

A prosecutor may choose one of several political styles in working within a courtroom workgroup. The choice depends on the satisfaction or dissatisfaction of the prosecutor with office's status in the courthouse community and the prosecutor's perception of the value of conflict. Prosecutors satisfied with the status of the office adopt the office conservator style. Officer conservators accept the status quo and seek continuity. Prosecutors who are dissatisfied with the status quo may choose the courthouse insurgents style, using conflict as a tool for change. Policy reformers are also dissatisfied with the status quo but seek change through more conciliatory means.
