It's the practical-ish solution for individuals seeking monetary remedies too low in proportion to attorney fees, and requiring more legally binding enforcement measures than those provided by mediation/arbitration. The ish suffix indicates that it's not the democratized "people's court" that everyone thinks it is... We've found that it's not very useful for low-income, immigrant or shy folks which either don't feel confident enough, or are so ensnared by the legal system that they never think small claims court a viable solution for their problems. 
<span>It also plays a great entertainment role, apparently, given the popularity of daytime shows such as that of the assertive Mrs. Judge Judy.</span>

Which of the following was the most dangerous for prisoners in Andersonville Prison during the Civil War?
gavmur [86]

The first prisoners were brought to Andersonville in late February 1864. During the next few months, approximately 400 more arrived each day. By the end of June, 26,000 men were penned in an area originally meant for only 10,000 prisoners. The largest number held at any one time was more than 33,000 in August 1864. The Confederate government could not provide adequate housing, food, clothing or medical care to their Federal captives because of deteriorating economic conditions in the South, a poor transportation system, and the desperate need of the Confederate army for food and supplies. hope this helps
