Abstract:

We investigate whether female and male judges make different decisions in child support trials where a judge decides on the father’s income allocation to the mother who has child custody. The context of high labour informality allows us to disentangle two factors shaping gender-based differences in decisions: judges’ preferences over the income allocation and beliefs about the income of respondents. When respondents have a formal job, judges observe their income and set an award as a fraction of it. However, when respondents work in the informal sector their income is not observable, and judges are forced to form beliefs before setting an award in absolute terms. By exploiting the random assignment of cases to judges in both contexts, we find that female judges have preferences for lower income allocation but believe the income of respondents is higher in comparison to male judges. This evidence suggests that incomplete information attenuates gender-based differences in judicial decisions.
