ASCDC News
A March 10 airing of the KCRW program hosted by Warren Olney features Los Angeles Superior Court Presiding Judge Tim McCoy, who discusses the court's financial crisis and the need to begin staff layoffs this month. Judge McCoy is joined by Los Angeles County Bar president Don Mike Anthony, who explores the possible diversion of courthouse construction funds. The interview can be accessed at this link, and begins approximately 28.5 minutes into the broadcast (you can move the time bar forward with your cursor).

Here is KCRW's description of the interview: "Los Angeles County judges are at war with their counterparts in other parts of the state over a pot of money. We hear what the outcome could mean for family law, juvenile justice and public safety in courthouses that are falling apart."
