Justice in Jeopardy Implementation
The Justice In Jeopardy Implementation Committee is established as a standing committee of the Board for Judicial Administration consistent with the role and responsibilities of the Board under BJAR 4.
The Committee is charged with coordinating strategies for securing adequate funding for the provision of justice in Washington State including court operations, the representation of indigent persons where the right to such representation is required by constitution, statute, and court rule and for indigent persons with civil legal needs.
The Committee may recommend that the Board for Judicial Administration request or endorse the inclusion of specific funding proposals in the budget submissions of the Supreme Court, the Office of Public Defense, and the Office of Civil Legal Aid.
In doing so, the Committee shall consider the practical and political realities of each proposal recommended and endorsed as well as the overall group of proposals recommended or endorsed.
The Committee shall serve to support communication among all participants in support of a coordinated effort to secure adequate funding for the provision of justice and to cooperatively promote the Justice In Jeopardy initiative to executive legislative and branch policy makers and the public through a range of communication strategies.
