Description: Judicial independence reform in Taiwan was pioneered by a group of reform-spirited judges from Room 303 of the Taichung District Court, in 1993, rather than as part of the mass movement unfolding on the streets. This paper examines why the movement strategy was successful and how its limitations eventually created problems that hinder further judicial reforms in Taiwan.
