    2014 State of the Judiciary

    2014 State of the Judiciary presented by Chief Justice Barbara A. Madsen on behalf of the courts of Washington State of the Judicary 2014 reetings Governor Inslee, members of the Washington State Legislature, judges, Gelected officials and residents of Washington, It has become a tradition for the Chief Justice to provide a written State of the Judiciary report at the start of the short session of the legislature and I do so now with appreciation for the opportunity to provide a brief look at how the courts of Washington fared in 2013, as well as the challenges coming in 2014. What follows is a series of articles and interviews that highlight some activities and accomplishments of the judicial branch this past year. I believe this new approach to reporting on the state of our courts will be more informative and will put a human face on the issues affecting the courts and the people we serve. The past year has been one of innovative steps forward in addressing intractable access-to-justice problems (see page 4), advancing the highly effective therapeutic courts model with new statewide resources and research (page 6), working to keep age-old public defense promises (page 8), advancing and leveraging technology to keep systems safe and help courts handle ever-growing caseloads (pages 10 & 11), reaching out to residents in old and new ways (page 15), building new frameworks for accessing court administrative records (page 17), honoring history with an eye on the future (page 18), looking at old organizational structures with a critical eye toward efficiency improvements (pages 20 & 21), performing vital work on public defense and civil legal aid systems (pages 22 and 24), and celebrating with families and children (page 26).

  • Washington Supreme Court Alters Sentencing Structure for Accomplices

    Washington Supreme Court Alters Sentencing Structure for Accomplices

    Washington Supreme Court alters sentencing structure for accomplices By Adam Lynn The News Tribune February 5, 2015 A divided Washington State Supreme Court has overturned the exceptional sentence of a Pierce County man in a decision that some believe will change fundamentally the way criminal accomplices are sentenced in Washington. In a 5-4 opinion released Thursday, the state’s high court ruled that convicted identity thief Larry Hayes should have received a standard-range sentence after being convicted of a host of felonies in 2009. Instead, he got a 15-year term under a provision that allows prosecutors to seek extra punishment for egregious offenders. The majority ordered the case back to Pierce County for re-sentencing. At issue is how people charged as accomplices should be treated under the law at sentencing. For years, Washington law has prescribed that accomplices and principle actors in a crime be exposed to the same culpability, a concept Pierce County Prosecutor Mark Lindquist on Thursday called “in for a penny, in for a pound.” In an opinion written by Justice Charles Johnson and signed by Justices Charles Wiggins, Susan Owens, Mary Fairhurst and Sheryl Gordon McCloud, the majority ruled that should not always be the case, especially where sentencing is concerned. Until Thursday, when a prosecutor sought an exceptional sentence for a criminal defendant, he or she had to prove to a jury that certain aggravating factors made the crime worse than usual. The requirement applied to principle actors and accomplices alike. Thursday’s majority opinion said the blanket application to accomplices is improper.
