A Resolution directing the Legislative Budget and Finance Committee to conduct a financial analysis of the Office of Attorney General, district attorney offices and public defenders in comparison to private law practices and corporate defense firms.
This resolution directs the Legislative Budget and Finance Committee to perform a financial comparison between state legal offices, such as the Office of Attorney General and district attorney offices, and private law firms. The primary goal is to assess whether current funding levels for these public agencies are adequate by analyzing their revenue and expenditures against those of corporate defense firms. To complete this study, the committee will request financial records from the relevant entities and must submit a final report with its findings and any recommendations to the House of Representatives within 180 days.
