Restructuring
In August 2012, the Judicial Council adopted recommendations to restructure and realign its staff agency. The recommendations came out of the effort of the Strategic Evaluation Committee, appointed by the Chief Justice.
The council’s Executive and Planning Committee, chaired by Justice Douglas Miller, was directed to monitor and report regularly on implementation progress.
