    "This is a critical need and a constitutional mandate," says Tom Dixon, State Bar CLE director. "The program has generated 57 new or renewed attorney sign-ups with the State Public Defender resulting in approximately 285 appointed cases. We are proud to be part of this effort."

    Attorneys eligible for the program must be new to the private bar appointment list or not have taken a case from the Public Defender's Office in at least two years. To sign up for the program, contact attorney Deborah M. Smith at (608) 261-8856.
