It is cumulative and periodically published. INDEX The index indicates the subject of each bill, constitutional amendment, and resolution as introduced and as amended. Entries are not removed from the index when subject matter is deleted from the measure in course of passage. TABLE The table shows each section of the Constitution, codes, and uncodified laws affected by measures introduced in the Legislature. It may be used in two ways: 1. As a means of locating measures where the section of the Constitution, code, or law is known. 2. To locate measures upon a particular subject, by using a published index to the codes and laws, such as Deering’s General Index, the Larmac Consolidated Index, and West’s General Index, to locate the existing sections, and then by using this table to locate the measures which affect those sections. The table is arranged by codes and the Constitution listed in alphabeti- cal order. Uncodified laws are listed at the end of the table under the heading ‘‘Statutes Other Than Codes,’’ and are cited by year and chapter.

It embellishes courthouse entries, ceremonial occasions, and an occasional constitutional decision. But it comes nowhere close to describing the justice system in practice. Millions of Americans lack any access to the system, let alone equal access. It is a shameful irony that our nation, which has the world’s greatest concentration of lawyers, also has one of the least adequate systems for legal assistance. It is more shameful still that the inadequacies attract so little concern. The Roadmap to Justice Project seeks to bring greater visibility and expertise to this issue. Its goal is to draw leaders in the field together to chart a national agenda for access to justice for those who need it most. Through a series of structured conversations with leading experts, we hope to develop a plausible plan for the reorganization of legal processes, ethical rules, court procedures, and pro bono programs. This forum, sponsored by the Stanford Center on the Legal Profession and the Sokolove Charitable Fund, provides a starting point for an ongoing effort to turn the tide on this increasingly significant issue. We thank you for joining us. Deborah L. Rhode James G.

  • Communication from Public
    Communication from Public Name: Kendall Mayhew Date Submitted: 07/28/2019 10:36 PM Council File No: 14-1057-S8 Comments for Public Posting: I implore the council to oppose this policy that would further criminalize our unhoused neighbors. The state constitution has been upheld again and again in regards to these disgusting efforts to dehumanize vulnerable members of our community. We all have the right to exist in public spaces. Communication from Public Name: Brad Jones Date Submitted: 07/28/2019 11:11 PM Council File No: 14-1057-S8 Comments for Public Posting: I urge the city council to reinstate LAMC 85.02 - the ban on living in vehicles near schools, parks or in residential neighborhoods. Owners of vehicles are preying on the homeless; letting them stay in vehicles overnight is not the right solution to the homeless problem. Communication from Public Name: Kate Corry-Saavedra Date Submitted: 07/28/2019 11:45 PM Council File No: 14-1057-S8 Comments for Public Posting: My name is Kate Corry-Saavedra and I am a resident of Country Club Park in CD10. I strongly oppose reauthorizing LAMC 85.02 as written. In our current homelessness crisis, many Angelenos use their vehicle not only as transportation but as shelter. 85.02 criminalizes this necessary action in the VAST majority of Los Angeles. Navigating these rules is complicated and unreasonable for those experiencing homelessness. 85.02 will force individuals out of their cars into tents on the street - a more complicated situation for them and for all of us. Support our neighbors living out of their cars by voting against the reauthorization of 85.02.

    PSYCHOTROPIC MEDICATION IN CALIFORNIA: A PRESCRIPTION FOR ALTERNATIVE APPROACHES DAVID H. NEEDHAM* Miss FLINN. It's just medication, Mr. Taber, good for you. Down it goes, now. MR. TABER. But I mean what kind of medication .... Miss, I don't like to create trouble. But I don't like to swallow something without knowing what it is, neither. How do I know this isn't one of those funny pills that makes me something I'm not? - Ken Kesey, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest I. INTRODUCTION An eleven-year-old girl from Los Angeles exhibits the normal tendencies of a preteen: she throws tantrums, is combative, and shows fear.' To be on the safe side, her mother brings her to a psychiatrist.2 The girl leaves the appointment with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder and a prescription for ten different psychotropic medications-a mix of antimanics, anticonvulsants, and antipsychotics.3 Her mother's choice is not an easy one.

HEART deploys alongside the public defenders to park spaces, shelters, service providers, and libraries to host mobile legal clinics – essentially bringing the Court to the streets. HEART helps participants resolve infraction citations for minor violations, such as jaywalking, having an open container, or having expired car tags. These tickets are wiped clean in exchange for service engagement with onsite resources, such as housing, benefits, drug treatment, medical care, and job training. The public defenders help participants expunge past misdemeanor and felony convictions and connect with counsel for active cases. This community engagement is funded by the LA County Board of Supervisors, which recently awarded HEART nearly $1 million dollars to conduct this innovative legal work. Last year HEART hosted 56 clinics, engaged 1,200 participants, facilitated the resolution of 1,102 cases and connected 1,112 to homeless case managers.
