What problem would this solve?

Seems like it would just be bureaucratic nightmare and a tax drain if you're leaving the exceptions up to a new court. I mean, even in the criminal system the current wait times for trials are about 2 years. That money would be better spent on adding courts to the existing system, you know, to give people their constitutionally guaranteed right to a speedy trial.
