LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL’S DIGEST

AB 1615, as amended, Committee on Budget. begin delete Budget Act of 2016. end delete begin insert Public safety. end insert

begin insert

(1) Existing law, the Trial Jury Selection and Management Act, generally governs the selection of juries in criminal and civil cases. Under existing law, a criminal defendant is generally entitled to exercise 10 peremptory challenges during the jury selection process. When 2 or more defendants are jointly tried, existing law requires these challenges to be exercised jointly, but grants each defendant an additional 5 challenges to be exercised separately. If the offense for which a defendant is being tried is punishable by a maximum term of imprisonment of 90 days or less, existing law entitles the defendant to 6 peremptory challenges and grants each jointly tried defendant 4 additional challenges to be exercised separately.

end insert begin insert

This bill would instead, until January 1, 2021, grant a defendant 6 peremptory challenges in a criminal case if the offense charged is punishable with a maximum term of imprisonment of one year or less, and would reduce the number of peremptory challenges that may be exercised separately by a defendant who is jointly tried from 4 to 2 in cases in which the maximum term of imprisonment is one year or less. The bill would require the Judicial Council to conduct a study and, on or before January 1, 2020, submit a report to the Legislature on that reduction in the number of peremptory challenges, as specified.

end insert begin insert

(2) Existing law establishes the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, which consists of, among other divisions, the Board of Parole Hearings. The Board of Parole Hearings is comprised of 17 commissioners, appointed by the Governor, subject to confirmation by the Senate, for 3-year terms. Of those 17 commissioners, existing law requires 5 to be appointed and trained to hear only juvenile matters. Within 60 days of appointment and annually thereafter, existing law requires the commissioners and deputy commissioners to undergo a minimum of 40 hours of training in specified areas, including treatment and training programs provided to wards. Existing law requires the board to, among other things, conduct parole consideration hearings, parole rescission hearings, and parole progress hearings for adults and juveniles under the jurisdiction of the department and discharges of commitment, orders for discharge from the jurisdiction of the Division of Juvenile Facilities to the jurisdiction of the committing court, and disciplinary appeals with respect to wards in the custody of the Division of Juvenile Facilities in the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.

end insert begin insert

This bill would establish the Board of Juvenile Hearings to assume the powers, duties, and responsibilities of the Board of Parole Hearings as it relates to hearings by the Board of Parole Hearings on juvenile matters and would also require the Board of Juvenile Hearings to conduct initial case reviews and annual reviews. The Board of Juvenile Hearings would be comprised of 3 commissioners, appointed by the Governor, subject to Senate confirmation, for 5-year terms. The bill would require the Governor to periodically designate the chair of the Board of Juvenile Hearings. The bill would authorize the Governor to appoint an executive officer of the board, subject to Senate confirmation, who would hold office at the pleasure of the Governor and would require the executive officer to exercise all duties and functions necessary to ensure that the responsibilities of the Board of Juvenile Hearings are successfully discharged. The bill would authorize the Governor to remove any member of the Board of Juvenile Hearings for misconduct, incompetency, or neglect of duty after a full hearing by the Board of State and Community Corrections.

end insert begin insert

The bill would authorize the Board of Juvenile Hearings to utilize board representatives to whom it may assign appropriate duties, including hearing cases and making decisions, as specified. The bill would require commissioners and board representatives to undergo, within 60 days of appointment and annually thereafter, a minimum of 40 hours of training, as described above, and would also require training in the areas of adolescent brain development, the principles of cognitive behavioral therapy, and evidence-based treatment and recidivism-reduction models.

end insert begin insert

The bill would delete references to the Juvenile Parole Board and would refer instead to the Board of Juvenile Hearings. The bill would delete other obsolete provisions and make other conforming changes to implement the creation of the Board of Juvenile Hearings.

end insert begin insert

(3) Existing law requires the Judicial Council to adopt a budget and allocate funding for the trial courts. Existing law requires the Judicial Council to set aside 2% of specified funds appropriated in the annual Budget Act and requires the funds to remain in the Trial Court Trust Fund to be allocated by the Judicial Council to trial courts for unforeseen emergencies, unanticipated expenses, or unavoidable funding shortfalls.

end insert begin insert

This bill would instead require the Judicial Council to hold a reserve of $10,000,000 in the Trial Court Trust Fund to be available to trial courts for emergencies. The bill would require any funding allocated to be replenished on an annual basis from the trial court base allocations. The bill would require the Judicial Council to establish a process for trial courts to apply for emergency funding.

end insert begin insert

(4) Existing law, the Sargent Shriver Civil Counsel Act, requires legal counsel to be appointed to represent low-income parties in civil matters involving critical issues affecting basic human needs in those courts selected by the Judicial Council, as specified. Existing law, subject to funding specifically provided for this purpose, requires the Judicial Council to develop one or more model pilot projects in selected courts to provide that representation of counsel in civil matters, as specified.

end insert begin insert

Existing law provides for the assessment of various fees and fines, including, among others, sanctions for violation of a court order. Existing law requires the superior court to deposit the fees and fines in a bank account with the Administrative Office of the Courts and specifies how those moneys are to be distributed, including, until January 1, 2017, to the Trial Court Trust Fund to be used by the Judicial Council to implement and administer the civil representation pilot program described above.

end insert begin insert

This bill would repeal the date restriction on this distribution, thereby extending that provision indefinitely.

end insert begin insert

(5) Existing law, until July 1, 2017, sets the fees at $25 or $30 for various court services, including, but not limited to, issuing a writ for the enforcement of an order or judgment and filing an application for renewal of judgment, respectively. Existing law requires, only through June 30, 2017, the Judicial Council to use $10 of each fee collected for those services for the expenses of the Judicial Council in implementing and administering the civil representation pilot program described above. Existing law, commencing July 1, 2017, reduces each of the above fees by $10.

end insert begin insert

This bill would require that the above fees remain set at $25 and $30, respectively. The bill would instead require the Judicial Council to use an amount equivalent to $10 of each fee for expenses in administering the civil representation pilot program. The bill would make related findings and declarations.

end insert begin insert

This bill would also make technical, nonsubstantive changes.

end insert begin insert

(6) Existing law requires specified sports organizations, among other entities, to register with the Department of Justice prior to conducting a raffle. Existing law authorizes the department to require an annual registration fee to cover the reasonable costs of this registration, which is deposited by the department into the General Fund.

end insert begin insert

This bill would create the Major League Sporting Event Raffle Fund, and deposit the registration fees into that fund instead of the General Fund. The bill would, under specified conditions, authorize a loan of $1,005,000 from the General Fund to the Major League Sporting Event Raffle Fund for use by the department for specified enforcement activities.

end insert begin insert

(7) Existing law authorizes a county to establish a pretrial diversion program for defendants who have been charged with a misdemeanor offense and authorizes other diversion programs, including for defendants with cognitive developmental disabilities, defendants in nonviolent drug cases, and traffic violations.

end insert begin insert

This bill would establish the Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion (LEAD) pilot program, to be administered by the Board of State and Community Corrections, to improve public safety and reduce recidivism by increasing the availability and use of social service resources while reducing costs to law enforcement agencies and courts stemming from repeated incarceration. The bill would require the board to award grants, on a competitive basis, to up to 3 jurisdictions to establish LEAD programs and would require the board to establish minimum standards, funding schedules, and procedures for awarding grants. The bill would establish requirements for referral of people who may be arrested for, or who have a history of, low-level drug offenses or prostitution, as defined, to social services in lieu of prosecution. The bill would require the board to contract with a non-profit research entity, university, or college to evaluate the effectiveness of the LEAD program and submit a report of the findings to the Governor and the Legislature by January 1, 2020. The bill would appropriate $15,000,000 from the General Fund for the LEAD pilot program and would authorize the board to spend up to $550,000 of that amount for the contracts to evaluate the effectiveness of the LEAD program and to contract with experts in the implementation of LEAD in other jurisdictions, as specified.

end insert begin insert

(8) Existing law establishes the Division of Health Care Operations and the Division of Health Care Policy and Administration within the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation under the Undersecretary of Health Care Services.

end insert begin insert

(9) Existing law allows the Secretary of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to enter into an agreement with a city, county, or city and county, to permit transfer of prisoners in the custody of the secretary to a jail or other adult correctional facility. Under existing law, prisoners transferred to a local facility remain under the legal custody of the department. Existing law, until January 1, 2017, allows a transfer of prisoners to include inmates who have been sentenced to the department but remain housed in a county jail, and specifies that these prisoners shall be under the sole legal custody and jurisdiction of the sheriff or other official having jurisdiction over the facility and not under the legal custody and jurisdiction of the department. Existing law, until January 1, 2017, for purposes of entering into agreements pursuant to the above provisions, waives any process, regulation, or requirement relating to entering into those agreements.

end insert begin insert

(11) Existing law establishes the Board of State and Community Corrections to, among other things, administer the Second Chance Program to invest in community-based programs, services, and initiatives for formerly incarcerated individuals in need of mental health and substance use treatment services. Existing law prohibits specified officials from being financially interested in any contract made by them in their official capacity. Existing law states that members of a committee created by the Board of State and Community Corrections have no financial interest in any contract made by the board, as specified, based upon the receipt of compensation for holding public office or public employment. Existing federal law, the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program, provides federal criminal justice funding to state and local entities.

end insert begin insert

This bill would instead provide that, for the purpose of the prohibition on officials being financially interested in any contract made by them in their official capacity, members of a committee created by the board pursuant to the Second Chance Program or the federal Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant Program have no financial interest in any contract made by the board, as specified, based upon the receipt of compensation for holding public office or public employment.

end insert begin insert

(12) Existing law establishes the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to oversee the state prison system.

end insert begin insert

This bill would, upon appropriation by the Legislature, require the department to award funding for a grant program to not-for-profit organizations to replicate their programs at institutions that are underserved by volunteer and not-for-profit organizations, as specified. The bill would require grant funding be provided to programs that have demonstrated success and focus on offender responsibility and restorative justice principles.

end insert begin insert

(14) Existing law allows any court or other agency or officer of this state having power to commit or transfer an inmate to any institution for confinement to commit or transfer that inmate to any institution outside this state if this state has entered into a contract or contracts for the confinement of inmates in that institution and the inmate, if he or she was sentenced under California law and has executed written consent to the transfer, except that existing law, until January 1, 2017, allows the secretary to transfer the inmate to a facility in another state without the consent of the inmate.

end insert begin insert

This bill would extend the authority of the secretary to transfer an inmate to a facility in another state without the consent of the inmate until January 1, 2020.

end insert begin insert

end insert begin insert

(16) Existing law requires the department to work with the appropriate budget and policy committees of the Legislature and the Legislative Analyst’s Office to establish appropriate oversight, evaluation, and accountability measures to be adopted as part of its “future of corrections plan.” Existing law requires the plan to include periodic review by the Department of Finance’s Office of State Audits and Evaluations.

distribution to that fund or account does to the full fee. If a court
collects a fee that was incurred before January 1, 2006, under a
provision that was the predecessor to one of the paragraphs
contained in subdivision (a), the fee may be deposited as if it were
collected under the paragraph of subdivision (a) that corresponds
to the predecessor of that paragraph and distributed in prorated
amounts to each fund or account to which the fee in subdivision
(a) must be distributed.

(h) Except as provided in Sections 470.5 and 6322.1 of the
Business and Professions Code, and Sections 70622, 70624, and
70625 of this code, no agency may take action to change the
amounts allocated to any of the funds described in subdivision (c),
(d), or (e).

(i) The amount of the penalty on any delinquent payment under
subdivision (c) or (d) shall be calculated by multiplying the amount
of the delinquent payment at a daily rate equivalent to 11⁄2 percent
per month for the number of days the payment is delinquent. The
penalty shall be paid from the Trial Court Trust Fund. Penalties
on delinquent payments under subdivision (d) shall be calculated
only on the amounts to be distributed to the Trial Court Trust Fund
and the State Court Facilities Construction Fund, and each penalty
shall be distributed proportionately to the funds to which the
delinquent payment was to be distributed.

(j) If a delinquent payment under subdivision (c) or (d) results
from a delinquency by a superior court under subdivision (b), the
court shall reimburse the Trial Court Trust Fund for the amount
of the penalty. Notwithstanding Section 77009, any penalty on a
delinquent payment that a court is required to reimburse pursuant
to this section shall be paid from the court operations fund for that
court. The penalty shall be paid by the court to the Trial Court
Trust Fund no later than 45 days after the end of the month in
which the penalty was calculated. If the penalty is not paid within
the specified time, the Administrative Office of the Courts may
reduce the amount of a subsequent monthly allocation to the court
by the amount of the penalty on the delinquent payment.

(k) If a delinquent payment under subdivision (c) or (d) results
from a delinquency by a county in transmitting fees and fines listed
in subdivision (a) to the bank account established for this purpose,
as described in subdivision (b), the county shall reimburse the Trial
Court Trust Fund for the amount of the penalty. The penalty shall
be paid by the county to the Trial Court Trust Fund no later than
45 days after the end of the month in which the penalty was
calculated.

(l) This section shall become operative on July 1, 2017.

68651.  

(a) Legal counsel shall be appointed to represent
low-income parties in civil matters involving critical issues
affecting basic human needs in those specified courts selected by
the Judicial Council as provided in this section.

(b) (1) Subject to funding specifically provided for this purpose
pursuant to subdivision begin delete (d) end delete begin insert (e) end insert of Section 70626, the Judicial
Council shall develop one or more model pilot projects in selected
courts pursuant to a competitive grant process and a request for
proposals. Projects authorized under this section shall provide
representation of counsel for low-income persons who require
legal services in civil matters involving housing-related matters,
domestic violence and civil harassment restraining orders, probate
conservatorships, guardianships of the person, elder abuse, or
actions by a parent to obtain sole legal or physical custody of a
child, as well as providing court procedures, personnel, training,
and case management and administration methods that reflect best
practices to ensure unrepresented parties in those cases have
meaningful access to justice, and to gather information on the
outcomes associated with providing these services, to guard against
the involuntary waiver of those rights or their disposition by
default. These pilot projects should be designed to address the
substantial inequities in timely and effective access to justice that
often give rise to an undue risk of erroneous decision because of
the nature and complexity of the law and the proceeding or
disparities between the parties in education, sophistication,
language proficiency, legal representation, access to self-help, and
alternative dispute resolution services. In order to ensure that the
scarce funds available for the program are used to serve the most
critical cases and the parties least able to access the courts without
representation, eligibility for representation shall be limited to
clients whose household income falls at or below 200 percent of
the federal poverty level. Projects shall impose asset limitations
consistent with their existing practices in order to ensure optimal
use of funds.

(2) (A) In light of the significant percentage of parties who are
unrepresented in family law matters, proposals to provide counsel
in child custody cases should be considered among the highest
priorities for funding, particularly when one side is represented
and the other is not.

(B) Up to 20 percent of available funds shall be directed to
projects regarding civil matters involving actions by a parent to
obtain sole legal or physical custody of a child. This subparagraph
shall not apply to distributions made pursuant to paragraph (3).

(3) For the 2012-13 fiscal year, and each subsequent fiscal year,
any amounts collected pursuant to subdivision begin delete (d) end delete begin insert (e) end insert of Section
70626 in excess of the total amount transferred to the Trial Court

subdivision begin delete (d) end delete begin insert (e) end insert of Section 70626 shall be distributed by the
Judicial Council without regard to subparagraph (B) of paragraph
(2). Those amounts may be distributed by the Judicial Council as
set forth in this begin delete subdivision beginning July 1, 2012. end delete begin insert subdivision. end insert
If the funds are to be distributed to new projects, the Judicial
Council shall distribute those amounts pursuant to the process set
forth in this subdivision.

(4) Each project shall be a partnership between the court, a
qualified legal services project, as defined by subdivision (a) of
Section 6213 of the Business and Professions Code, that shall serve
as the lead agency for case assessment and direction, and other
legal services providers in the community who are able to provide
the services for the project. The lead legal services agency shall
be the central point of contact for receipt of referrals to the project
and to make determinations of eligibility based on uniform criteria.
The lead legal services agency shall be responsible for providing
representation to the clients or referring the matter to one of the
organization or individual providers with whom the lead legal
services agency contracts to provide the service. Funds received
by a qualified legal services project shall not qualify as
expenditures for the purposes of the distribution of funds pursuant
to Section 6216 of the Business and Professions Code. To the
extent practical, the lead legal services agency shall identify and
make use of pro bono services in order to maximize available
services efficiently and economically. Recognizing that not all
indigent parties can be afforded representation, even when they
have meritorious cases, the court partner shall, as a corollary to
the services provided by the lead legal services agency, be
responsible for providing procedures, personnel, training, and case
management and administration practices that reflect best practices
to ensure unrepresented parties meaningful access to justice and
to guard against the involuntary waiver of rights, as well as to
encourage fair and expeditious voluntary dispute resolution,
consistent with principles of judicial neutrality.

(5) The participating projects shall be selected by a committee
appointed by the Judicial Council with representation from key
stakeholder groups, including judicial officers, legal services
providers, and others, as appropriate. The committee shall assess
the applicants’ capacity for success, innovation, and efficiency,
including, but not limited to, the likelihood that the project would
deliver quality representation in an effective manner that would
meet critical needs in the community and address the needs of the
court with regard to access to justice and calendar management,
and the unique local unmet needs for representation in the
community. Projects approved pursuant to this section shall initially
be authorized for a three-year period, commencing July 1, 2011,
subject to renewal for a period to be determined by the Judicial
Council, in consultation with the participating project in light of
the project’s capacity and success. After the initial three-year
period, the Judicial Council shall distribute any future funds
available as the result of the termination or nonrenewal of a project
pursuant to the process set forth in this subdivision. Projects shall
be selected on the basis of whether in the cases proposed for service
the persons to be assisted are likely to be opposed by a party who
is represented by counsel. The Judicial Council shall also consider
the following factors in selecting the projects:

(A) The likelihood that representation in the proposed case type
tends to affect whether a party prevails or otherwise obtains a
significantly more favorable outcome in a matter in which they
would otherwise frequently have judgment entered against them
or suffer the deprivation of the basic human need at issue.

(B) The likelihood of reducing the risk of erroneous decision.

(C) The nature and severity of potential consequences for the
unrepresented party regarding the basic human need at stake if
representation is not provided.

(D) Whether the provision of legal services may eliminate or
reduce the potential need for and cost of public social services
regarding the basic human need at stake for the client and others
in the client’s household.

(E) The unmet need for legal services in the geographic area to
be served.

(F) The availability and effectiveness of other types of court
services, such as self-help.

(6) Each applicant shall do all of the following:

(A) Identify the nature of the partnership between the court, the
lead legal services agency, and the other agencies or other providers
that would work within the project.

(B) Describe the referral protocols to be used, the criteria that
would be employed in case assessment, why those cases were
selected, the manner to address conflicts without violating any
attorney-client privilege when adverse parties are seeking
representation through the project, and the means for serving
potential clients who need assistance with English.

(C) Describe how the project would be administered, including
how the data collection requirements would be met without causing
an undue burden on the courts, clients, or the providers, the
particular objectives of the project, strategies to evaluate their
success in meeting those objectives, and the means by which the
project would serve the particular needs of the community, such
as by providing representation to limited-English-speaking clients.

(7) To ensure the most effective use of the funding available,
the lead legal services agency shall serve as a hub for all referrals,
and the point at which decisions are made about which referrals
will be served and by whom. Referrals shall emanate from the
court, as well as from the other agencies providing services through
the program, and shall be directed to the lead legal services agency
for review. That agency, or another agency or attorney in the event
of conflict, shall collect the information necessary to assess whether
the case should be served. In performing that case assessment, the
agency shall determine the relative need for representation of the
litigant, including all of the following:

(A) Case complexity.

(B) Whether the other party is represented.

(C) The adversarial nature of the proceeding.

(D) The availability and effectiveness of other types of services,
such as self-help, in light of the potential client and the nature of
the case.

(E) Language issues.

(F) Disability access issues.

(G) Literacy issues.

(H) The merits of the case.

(I) The nature and severity of potential consequences for the
potential client if representation is not provided.

(J) Whether the provision of legal services may eliminate or
reduce the need begin delete for end delete begin insert for, end insert and cost begin delete of end delete begin insert of, end insert public social services for
the potential client and others in the potential client’s household.

(8) If both parties to a dispute are financially eligible for
representation, each proposal shall ensure that representation for
both sides is evaluated. In these and other cases in which conflict
issues arise, the lead legal services agency shall have referral
protocols with other agencies and providers, such as a private
attorney panel, to address those conflicts.

(9) Each pilot project shall be responsible for keeping records
on the referrals accepted and those not accepted for representation,
and the reasons for each, in a manner that does not violate begin delete any end delete
privileged communications between the agency and the prospective
client. Each pilot project shall be provided with standardized data
collection tools, and required to track case information for each
referral to allow the evaluation to measure the number of cases
served, the level of service required, and the outcomes for the
clients in each case. In addition to this information on the effect
of the representation on the clients, data shall be collected regarding
the outcomes for the trial courts.

(10) A local advisory committee shall be formed for each pilot
project, to include representatives of the bench and court
administration, the lead legal services agency, and the other
agencies or providers that are part of the local project team. The
role of the advisory committee is to facilitate the administration
of the local pilot project, and to ensure that the project is fulfilling
its objectives. In addition, the committee shall resolve any issues
that arise during the course of the pilot project, including issues
concerning case eligibility, and recommend changes in project
administration in response to implementation challenges. The
committee shall meet at least monthly for the first six months of
the project, and no less than quarterly for the duration of the pilot
period. Each authorized pilot project shall catalog changes to the
program made during the three-year period based on its experiences
with best practices in serving the eligible population.

(c) The Judicial Council shall conduct a study to demonstrate
the effectiveness and continued need for the pilot program
established pursuant to this section and shall report its findings
and recommendations to the Governor and the Legislature on or
before January 31, 2016. The study shall report on the percentage
of funding by case type and shall include data on the impact of
counsel on equal access to justice and the effect on court
administration and efficiency, and enhanced coordination between
courts and other government service providers and community
resources. This report shall describe the benefits of providing
representation to those who were previously not represented, both
for the clients and the courts, as well as strategies and
recommendations for maximizing the benefit of that representation
in the future. The report shall describe and include data, if
available, on the impact of the pilot program on families and
children. The report also shall include an assessment of the
continuing unmet needs and, if available, data regarding those
unmet needs.

(d) This section shall not be construed to negate, alter, or limit
any right to counsel in a criminal or civil action or proceeding
otherwise provided by state or federal law.
