Welcome to the California Law Revision Commission

Trial Court Restructuring: Rights and Responsibilities of the County as Compared to the Superior Court

    At the Legislature's direction, the Law Revision Commission has been reviewing the codes and recommending reforms to delete or update material made obsolete by trial court restructuring. Much work on this topic has been completed and enacted into law. For a number of reasons, some work remains to be done. For details, see Statutes Made Obsolete by Trial Court Restructuring.
    This study focuses on revisions needed to reflect the shift of responsibility for trial court operations from the county to the superior court.
    The Commission has approved a final recommendation on Trial Court Restructuring: Rights and Responsibilities of the County as Compared to the Superior Court (Part 1). Legislation to implement this recommendation has been enacted. See AB 1529 (Dickinson), 2012 Cal. Stat. ch. 470.
The Commission plans to prepare additional proposals on this topic in the future.
