Encouraging legal education.

HJM 4008 is a non-binding legislative memorial urging collaboration among Washington's legal institutions to promote existing legal education programs. It requests law schools, bar associations, prosecutor offices, public defense agencies, and courts to jointly encourage law students to participate in current programs like the Rule 6 law clerk program, Rule 9 licensed legal intern program, and rural legal partnerships. The memorial specifically asks these entities to educate students about these opportunities and support their participation during the final year of law school. This aims to address staffing needs in public defense and prosecution while developing students' practical legal skills.
