Published On: February 1, 2013

SB 166 requires Judicial Council to establish minimum hours of training and education necessary in order to be appointed as counsel in delinquency proceedings. These training hours may be counted toward the minimum continuing legal education hours required by the State Bar of California. California lawyers are already required to complete (and pay for) 25 hours of continuing legal education every three years with four of those hours being in ethics, one on substance abuse and one on the elimination of bias.
