Bench Bar Committee
The purpose of the Bench Bar Liaison Committee is to help appellate judges and appellate courts with public information, CLE, and training in an environment of respectful, but friendly, camaraderie between the appellate bench and the appellate bar. To further that purpose, the Committee hosts annual receptions for the state’s appellate judiciary. These programs are held with local bar associations in open forums where judges and attorneys can frankly discuss issues related to the processing and presentation of appeals. The Committee also monitors legislative developments related to the judiciary (including court administration, judicial selection, and appellate court funding) and conducts surveys on local appellate court rules and preferences. The Committee welcomes ideas that will promote the Committee's purpose and programs. |
