A summary of international and national research shows that, in comparison to men, women generally receive less severe judicial outcomes (e.g. sentences) even when they appear before the court under seemingly similar circumstances.

In this paper, I will explore these questions by addressing feminist debates of equality versus difference in the context of criminal court sanctioning
