4 Conflict Attorney Panel Policy I. PURPOSE The conflict case assignment policy is based upon the applicable STANDARDS FOR PUBLIC DEFENSE SERVICES as adopted on September 21, 2007 by the Washington State Bar Association. The City recognizes the need for a vigorous Conflict Attorney Panel. The policy for the Conflict Attorney Panel, and assignment of cases to Conflict Attorney Panel members, ensures defendants in receive competent, ethical and zealous representation by private attorneys assigned, by authority of the Court, to eligible defendants when a conflict of interest prevents the City public defender agencies from providing representation. II. CONFLICT ATTORNEY PANEL A. Provided by the. The is required to provide an attorney for an eligible defendant when a conflict of interest prevents the City public defender agencies from providing representation. The City hereby establishes The Conflict Attorney Panel (CAP), a panel of lawyers from the private bar, paid by the City, to provide that representation. The court delegates final approval for membership on the panel to the Conflict Attorney Oversight Committee. The Oversight Committee is authorized to oversee the actions of the panel. The Oversight Committee may delegate supervision to an ombudsperson who will be supervised by the Committee. B. Northwest Defenders Association. Northwest Defenders Association shall act as Coordinator of the CAP. The Coordinator will recruit attorneys for the panel, organize training offered free of charge to panel attorneys and submit the names of attorneys eligible for the panel to the Court for approval. The CAP Coordinator administers the assignment of eligible cases to members of the Conflict Attorney Panel. NDA is unable to represent clients assigned to CAP members because NDA has a conflict of interest. The Coordinator will not provide specific legal advice to CAP attorneys on cases assigned by the Coordinator. Regarding assigned cases the Coordinator s role is limited, consistent with the Rules of Professional Conduct, to facilitating communication with the assigned CAP attorney. The eligibility of any defendant to be represented by a panel attorney is determined by a judge, the Court Conflicts Coordinator or the Seattle Conflict Attorney Panel Policy Page 4

The Office of Policy and Management (OPM) administers all financial arrangements for CAP members. Appointed CAP members may not require, request, or accept any payment or promise of payment, or any other valuable consideration, for representation under CAP appointment, unless such payment is approved by order of the court, CrRLJ 3.1(f).
