The model presented in this paper hypothesizes that judges try to maximize prestige and that the way to achieve this goal is to decide cases efficiently. There is, however, no basis for assuming that this is the goal of judges and even if we accept this hypothesis, the only implication is that disputes should be settled efficiently, not that efficient rules should be promulgated.
