Courts accuse courts of favoritism in defense attorney appointments
Ward claims Los Angeles municipal courts allocate private appointments to a small group of 22 lawyers, with 375 others sharing the rest. He cites a Long Beach pattern where the Bar Association restricts appointments to members, and cites a 1976 budget showing 2.3 million dollars spent on court appointed attorneys. Ward asks Judge Grillo for standards and notes a buried planning study.
