Project

LA County is taking critical steps to create an effective and scalable model for resentencing indigent defense clients, assisting in remedying the over-incarceration that has gone on in the State for decades. The Los Angeles County Bar Association (IDP) will partner with a FUSE Executive Fellow Erin K Flood to implement the Public Defense Pilot Program, a specialized resentencing unit within the agency, designing a collaborative approach to resentencing case management.
