By How Much Is Your Court Getting Cut?

Posted in: Uncategorized

The Trial Court Budget Working Group (TCBWG) released its report on the allocation of trial court funding for California superior courts.  Included with the report was a spreadsheet detailing how much each county is expected to get from the AOC and whether that amount is an increase or decrease from last year.  And I believe we all know that things are pretty bad so definitely expect a decrease in your court’s funding.

So which counties got hit the hardest?  Definitely the larger counties felt a lot of the pain.  Here’s a partial list of counties and how much their budgets were reduced by:

Allocation of $190.13 Million Reduction in FY 2009-2010

1. - $9,285,900     Alameda
2. - $52,574,606   Los Angeles
3. - $15,833,401    Orange
4. - $8,435,468     San Bernardino
5. - $16,265,388   San Diego
6. - $9,609,962     Santa Clara
