Court Realignment Data Collection | Judicial Branch of California

Realignment Data Collection Process

Pursuant to Penal Code § 13155, the Judicial Council of California must collect data from the trial courts regarding the implementation of the 2011 Criminal Justice Realignment Legislation. This legislative mandate for data collection was included n the FY 12/13 budget trailer bill, giving the branch the authority to specify the data elements (updated December 2019) to be collected.

Please note that changes have been made to the realignment data elements. These revised data elements now include 3 additional items (#34-36) to collect workload data related to Proposition 47, 3 additional items (#37-39) to collect workload data related to Proposition 64, and 10 additional items (#40-40A) to collect data related to AB 1810 (mental health diversion).

Please contact Criminal Justice Services with questions: 415-865-8994, crimjusticeoffice@jud.ca.gov
