SUBJECT: Contract Amendment with Contra Costa Bay- Association
for Provision of Conflict Defense Services
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMEMATIONS:
Authorize the County Administrator or his designee to execute a contract
amendment with the Contra Costa Bar Association (contract #3167100) for
conflict defense services, extending the termination date until February
28, 1989, and increasing the payment limit to $1,300,000 for the period
July 1,1988 to February 28, 1989.
FINANCIAL IliPACT:
None beyond that currently budgeted in the FY 1988/89 adopted budget.
REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
As directed by the 'Board, staff is currently negotiating a renewal of the
.Bar Association contract for conflict defense services which expires on
December. 31, 1988. There is concurrence on the mutal benefits of a
multi-year contract with provisions for caseload closeout should the
contract be terminated. Administrator's staff is working with staff from
the Bar Association to develop a projection methodology that can be used to
measure the cost impact of specific fee schedule adjustments. The Bar
Association has agreed to use the projections to work toward agreement on
appropriate fee schedule adjustments.
Due to unanticipated complications in developing the projects and the
competing time demands of trial court funding negotiations, an agreement
cannot be reached for contract renewal before December 31, 1988. The Bar
Association has agreed to continue to provide services under the existing
contract provisions through February 1989, to allow ample time to complete
contract negotiations.
