SUBJECT: Legislation: Senate Bill 2369 (Watson)
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION•
Adopt a position of support for SB 2369 by Senator Diane Watson.
BACKGROUND:
SB 2369 by Senator Watson would amend Government Code Section
27648 concerning the defense of superior court judges, to provide
that the Attorney General will provide such defense if the County
Counsel is unable to do so; and that the State will pay the cost
of necessary private counsel. These provisions improve existing
law by providing alternate public defense for the judges and by
clearly providing that the costs of alternative defense are State
costs.
