Ter- ry hnderlini expressed pleasure with the pan- els' action. "They were positive in their approach to it.·• said Anderlini in an interview after the sub- committee hearing. The approved reform plan, he added, will allow the bar to resolve lingerlllg problems with the discipline system, including elimination ofthe backlog of pending complaints. Of the reduced funrling, Anderlini said, "We're dealing in an area where one expects disagreement on the amount ... needed." Not- ing the revolutionary nature of the proposed professional State Bar Court, he said, "there is no real model to follow.We're willing to go with (Fellmeth's) approach." Interviewed shortly before the full comittee approved the two-bill package, Fellmeth said, "I'm pleased. they adopted by numbers, which shaved the bar down to the bone.

I • Reducing the bar's proposed basic dues increase for 1990 from $35 to $23. The Legisla- live Analyst had recomended a 1990 basic dues The $12 cut by the lawmakers represents the amount the bar requested to fund new capital improvement projects in 1990. Under the amended version of AB 4391, basic dues in 1989 would rise from $215 to $245 for attorneys in practice for three or more years, from $147 to $177 for those in practice between one and three years, and from $116 to $146 for those in practice for less than one year. In 1990, the basic dues would increase anoth- er $23, to $267, $200, and $169, respective. • Stripping the authority to appoint the mon- itor away from the Attorney General's Office ·and giving it t.o the Legislature. The proposal was made by Assembly Judiciary Committee ChairmanElihu Harris, D-0akland, but op- posed by Presley. • Amending several reporting requirements in SB 1498. The major changes include : requir- ing attorneys to notify the bar when civil judg- ments are entered against them for gross negligence, as opposed to the original ordinary negligence; requiring insurers to notify the bar within 30 days of the filing of malpractice claims; and giving courts discretion to notify the bar of final contempt orders against lawyers. increase of only $15.

ert Fellmeth, who devised the reform The bulk of the enhancement funds will be spent on professionalizing the State Bar Court that adjudicates discipline cases. Cun-ently, cases are reviewed by an army of volunteer lawyers, a system severely criticized by program. Under the scaled-back professionalization nlan rn SB 1498, six administrative law judges CALJsl would staffa Hearing Department that would issue initial decisions on cases. Appeals would be heard by a Review Department com- prised ofa presidingjudge, another profession- al judge, and a half-time lay judge. The legislation would allow both of the later two positions to be half-tune. The bar's original proposal called for a panel of 11 ALJs in the Hearing Department and three full-time judges in the Review Depart- ment. Thus, the amended version of SB 1498 would ~lash the total from 14 to either 81 /2 or 8, depending on whether the Review Depart- ment's second professional judge serves half- time. Other major changes approved by the judi- ciary panels include : Eliminate Client Security Fund Surcharge • Eliminating from AB 4391 a proposed $10 increase in the annual Client Security Fund surcharge. Originally, the bar proposed a $20 hike, from the current $25 to $45, while the Legislative Analyst recommended no increase at all The Sl0 proposal represented the half. way point between the original proposal and the Legislative Analyst's recomendation.

He noted the attorney gener- al was chosen as the appointing power after constitutional concerns were raised about the original choice, the auditor general. Subcommittee member Tom McClintock, R- Camarillo, agreed with Presley, saying, "If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it.".· ~
