California Chief Justice Patricia Guerrero on Thursday issued the following statement on Governor Gavin Newsom's revised budget proposal for the judicial branch:
As the state faces significant budget challenges, I appreciate Governor Newsom's continued support of the judicial branch to protect access to justice for all. This includes increased funding for operational costs, court interpreters, and court-appointed counsel. We look forward to working with the Governor's Administration and the Legislature to finalize the budget in the coming weeks."
