SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF ORANGE The Superior Court of California, County of Orange (Court) is one of 58 superior courts in the State. The Court serves: Living within Orange County’s (County) 800 square miles are residents with diverse backgrounds: Although Orange County typically evokes images of affluence, the reality is: Source: Orange County Community Indicators Project. (2016). OC Community Indicators 2016. Resources: People The County’s changing landscape as well as outside pressures from the State and economy present never-ending challenges for the Court.

Its most valuable resource in meeting these challenges is its workforce – its judicial officers and employees. In Fiscal Year (FY) 2016-17, the Court is authorized to have 124 judges and 20 commissioners to preside over matters that are brought to the justice system. This includes over half a million new filings each year. The judicial officers are led by the presiding judge and assistant presiding judge, who are elected by the Court’s judges to two-year terms. The judges and commissioners are supported by 1,597 non-judicial staff.

Court staff are trial court employees, part of the Judicial Branch, but not direct State nor County of Orange employees. 3.2 million residents 9% overall projected population growth in next 25 years 34 cities and several large unincorporated areas 65+ is the only age group expected to grow in next 25 years 30% are foreign born 46% of residents over five speak a language other than English at home 8% of California population on 0.5% of land area 22% of residents live in poverty 37% of the County's neighborhoods have low levels of financial stability 1

Under the direction of the presiding judge and assistant presiding judge, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) provides leadership, direction, and oversight to all operational and administrative areas of the Court. The CEO is supported by the in-house general counsel and four deputy executive officers in charge of:  Operations  Finance and Administration  Human Resources  Court Technology Services The chart shows the proportion of staff dedicated to each major functional area or department within the Court. Resources: Court Locations The Court operates five full-service courthouses.

Specialized services are also available at three other facilities, including the Complex Civil Center, the Community Court, and the Courtroom at the Jail (all located in Santa Ana). In addition, the Superior Court Service Center (SCSC) in Mission Viejo serves residents of southern Orange County by providing a place to file documents, make traffic payments, and receive self- help services. Detailed information regarding each courthouse and other facilities can be found on pages 237-246. Did you know? Superior Court Judges are appointed by the Governor or elected by the voters to their office.

Commissioners are hired by the Court to serve as subordinate judges. 2

Funding Challenges: Inadequate State Funding, WAFM 1 , 1 Percent Cap on Reserves Historical Funding Inequities and Phase-in of WAFM WAFM seeks to rectify historical funding inequities by distributing available funding to courts based upon workload. Prior to WAFM, trial courts were mostly funded by their respective counties and were largely reliant upon them to provide adequate funding.

With the Lockyer-Isenberg Trial Court Funding Act of 1997, funding for the trial courts became the responsibility of the State and, unfortunately, the funding models in place in the county system were largely carried over and led to continued funding disparities. To ease the transition into WAFM and allow courts adequate time to phase in to their new funding parameters, the Judicial Council decided to phase-in the model incrementally as follows.

Historical funding (base dollars received prior to July 1, 2013):  FY 2013-14 – 10% WAFM/ 90% historical  FY 2014-15 – 15% WAFM / 85% historical  FY 2015-16 – 30% WAFM / 70% historical  FY 2016-17 – 40% WAFM / 60% historical  FY 2017-18 – 50% WAFM / 50% historical All new state funding received after July 1, 2013 is allocated 100 percent per WAFM with an equal amount of historical base funding converted.

This component was added to the model in order to bring courts in-line with WAFM as quickly as possible. 1 Workload-based Funding and Allocation Methodology SAMPLE CALCULATION: # of filings X caseweight = #. of minutes needed to process case type # of minutes/95,900= # of staff to process workload workload X cost per FTE= workload-based funding need Workload-based Funding and Allocation Methodology or “WAFM" As with many state-funded agencies, the trial courts have continued to compete for adequate funding since significant budget cuts were made to the State budget after the Great Recession of 2008.

In an effort to strengthen and improve the lobbying efforts made on behalf of the trial courts, a workload-based funding model was adopted by the Judicial Council of California in 2013. The primary goal of this funding model was to demonstrate an empirically based funding need. In this instance, filings are used to determine the funding need. The challenge that still remains is to obtain full funding. Currently, trial courts, as a whole, are only 78 percent funded for their workload-based need. Did you know? There are no courtrooms in the southern part of the County, home to 600,000 residents.

There are 43 counties in California that have populations of less than 600,000. If combined, 19 of the smallest California counties will have a population of less than 600,000, and yet those 19 counties have 23 courthouses among them. 3

FY 2016-17 marks the fourth year of the five-year phase-in of WAFM. At the end of this phase-in in FY 2017-18, base funding is anticipated to be about 82 percent converted (absent any new funding in FY 2017-18). Currently, 72 percent of base funding has been converted. Note that the target conversion amount is set at $1.4 billion per the model adopted by the Judicial Council in 2013. Local Funding Impact to the Court State funding is insufficient to fund the workload-driven need of all trial courts in California. As such, all trial courts are underfunded, but to varying degrees.

In FY 2016-17, our Court is funded at roughly 83 percent of its WAFM calculated need. This is five percent higher than the statewide average; hence funds will be taken from Orange and redistributed to courts below the statewide average. The chart to the left depicts which counties are receiving a larger or smaller share of funding under WAFM and the ratio for which base dollars are being reallocated in FY 2016-17. Orange loses 16 cents on the dollar for every historical dollar allocated per WAFM. Orange loses 32 cents on the dollar for all new money allocated per WAFM. RED – donor court GREEN – recipient court 4

Over the span of five years, the overall “loss” in actual and estimated funding attributable solely to WAFM is approximately $15 million. For an annual budget of roughly $200 million, this is a substantial decrease. Unfortunately, WAFM is not the only financial challenge that the Court is facing. Since 2013, the Court has been forced to operate with a 1 percent cap on its operating reserves, a delay in funding benefit cost increases, and insufficient funding for court appointed counsel in dependency cases (which is also appropriated and allocated by the State).

In FY 2016-17, court appointed counsel funding decreased from $6.4 million to $5.6 million. In order to ensure that children and parents in dependency cases continue to have legal representation, the Court must use general fund dollars to supplement dependency funding. Fund Balance Restrictions For the past three years, the Court has only been able to carry forward a maximum of 1 percent of the prior year’s actual expenditures. Only certain committed and special revenue funds (see page 17 for more details), and specific encumbrances 2 are excluded.

The challenge posed by the 1 percent reserve restriction policy is twofold: Limited cash flow: For the Court, the 1 percent reserve is equal to 3 days of payroll. This limited amount of available cash makes it nearly impossible for the Court to deal with unexpected emergencies, invest in long-term projects to improve efficiency, and take advantage of pre-pay discounts. 2 Encumbrances are funds that are set aside to purchase specific goods and/or services from a specific vendor based on contractual obligations.

Potential loss of future funding: If encumbrances are not used within the proper timeframe, which is three years per Judicial Council policy, or for the identified purpose, the unused amounts will be decreased from the Court’s base allocation in the next fiscal year. 5

Benefits funding reimbursement delay Despite significant funding challenges, the Court remains committed to strategically planning for and investing in its future. When WAFM was first approved in 2013, the Court updated its long range forecast and began purposefully implementing projects which would save money in the long term, invest in technology, improve access and customer service, and invest in its employees.

The planning mechanism for this effort is the Court’s Multi-Year Financial Plan or “MY Plan.” STRATEGIC PLANNING: GUIDE TO PAST AND FUTURE FOCUS MY Plan, the Court’s tool for strategic and tactical planning, was first implemented in FY 2012-13 to prioritize and manage projects. The Court’s Executive Team meets monthly to review the status of active MY Plan projects. They also review new MY Plan project requests, which are evaluated for approval based on a variety of factors including alignment with the Court’s strategic goals, resource needs and availability, and return on investment (ROI).

To date, more than 200 MY Plan project ideas have been submitted. Of those, 28 have been completed and 12 are currently active. Eleven of the 12 projects currently active are expected to be completed by the end of FY 2016-17. The other project ideas are either still pending approval or have already been removed from further consideration. 3 A business process reengineering (BPR) effort, expected to be completed in 2017, will completely overhaul the Court’s strategic and project management processes.

The continued goal of this effort is to optimize limited funding and resources while providing continued value to the residents of Orange County. 3 For a complete list of completed, currently active, and pending MY Plan projects, please see pages 247-249. Strategic planning * Vision * 2 - 5 year horizon Tactical planning * Project portfolio management * 1 - 2 year horizon Operational planning * Annual budget * 12 month horizon Prior to 2013, trial courts received benefit funding in same year in which the costs were incurred.

However, with the Budget Act of 2014 trial courts now receive delayed funding for new benefit cost increases. This means that the Court must first pay the expense and then receive reimbursement one year later. The delay in funding has a direct impact on cash flow and court operations. The Court must try to accommodate fluctuations in the millions of dollars every year before it receives adequate funding. 6

Equal Access to Justice: Changing Dynamics and Needs Equal access to justice and fairness is a top priority for both the State and the Court. As statistics show, the Court serves an increasingly diverse population. The Court continues to be responsive to its residents’ cultural, racial, socioeconomic, linguistic, physical, and age diversity.

To support this goal, in recent years the Court has been focusing on the following: Self-Represented Litigants Mainly because of financial limitations—but also because of an increasing number of people who prefer to do things themselves—one of the most significant changes in the court system in recent years is the growing number of residents who attend to their matters in court without the help of an attorney. Often unfamiliar with court procedures and forms, self-represented litigants require significant resources to assist them in preparing and improving the quality of information presented to judges.

Limited English Proficient (LEP) Court Users Without proper language assistance, LEP court users may be excluded from meaningful participation in the judicial process. Many LEP litigants appear without an attorney and without a qualified interpreter.

Further, LEP court users’ language needs are not limited to the courtroom; the need for language assistance extends to all points of contact including clerks’ offices, self-help centers, and court-connected clinics. 4 Recent Successes: Improving Access to Justice In the past few years, the Court has made numerous improvements in order to make it easier for court users to access services while encouraging them to conduct their business online rather than in line.

As more users access online services, the Court will be able to redirect resources that would have normally been allocated to providing services that are now available online to users in line who require more guidance and assistance because they are either self-represented, 4 California’s Language Access Plan: Strategic Plan for Language Access in the California Courts, Item for the January 22, 2015 Judicial Council business meeting. Did you know? The Court provides interpreter services in 65 languages – including Spanish, Vietnamese, Korean, Mandarin, and Farsi.

The Court collects and tracks usage data to better align interpreter services with the changing needs of the public. 7

limited English proficient, or subject to other circumstances. Some examples of the Court’s efforts to improve access to justice are: In FY 2015-16, the Court continued its efforts to provide increased and equal access to justice for its residents through: My Court Card Portal This online portal increases access to justice for self- represented litigants. Users can download needed forms, sign up for free workshops specific to their cases, keep track of case progress, and access online tutorials and e- learning content any time.

They can also receive expedited services when visiting self- help centers at the courthouses. Expanded service at the Superior Court Service Center Opened in 2015 to serve over 600,000 residents who lived in the southern part of the County, the Superior Court Service Center first focused on providing legal information, procedural assistance, workshops, document review of legal forms, and access to computers to the public. Currently, the SCSC is also accepting payments for criminal, traffic, and collections cases. There are no courtrooms in this facility.

Reserve a Court Date to allow users to make online appointment for traffic and minor offense cases Collections Court to provide improved service and more consistency to traffic defendants Self-Help Interview Triage Portal for small claims Self-Help Elder Clinic to assist elders and protect their legal rights Additional support services to veterans who are subject to family law restraining orders Jury Postcard Summons to notify prospective jurors of jury service and how to respond using eJuror Superior Court Service Center to serve residents in South County Appeals Webpage to improve the public's access and understanding of the appeal process 8

Recent Successes: Embracing Technology In addition to the public’s access to justice, the Court also focused on working smarter through the use of technology. Some examples are: Interactive Dashboards Interactive dashboards are now being used to facilitate data- informed decision making for the Court’s executives and managers.

Examples of dashboards created include Civil Caseload, Court Reporter Utilization, Financial Planning, Facilities Management and Delegation, and Legal Research. eCitations Instead of writing tickets, Orange County law enforcement officers now use handheld electronic devices to issue citations. Citation data are uploaded directly into the Court’s criminal and traffic case management system (CMS), Vision, instead of being manually entered by a contractor. The conversion to e-citations yielded ongoing savings of $300,000 per year in data entry costs.

Interactive Voice Response Contact Center (IVRCC) The IVRCC improves service to, and communications with, the public by consolidating formerly disparate IVR and call center systems. The public can obtain information about their cases and jury service anytime. By using IVRCC, users avoid the need to come to the courthouses and spend time standing in line. The system also allows for forecasting, such as predicting future call volumes and handling times, thus helping the Court deploy resources more efficiently.

Odyssey – Family Law and Juvenile In December 2015, the Court deployed a new CMS for family law and juvenile cases. All new family law and juvenile case files are electronic, giving judicial officers immediate access to case files. With this latest conversion, the Court can now completely support a paperless, file free, environment. Recent Successes: Focusing on Employees Court Alert Designed to provide timely notifications, Court Alert can be used to contact staff that is impacted by, or in danger of being impacted by, an emergency or disaster.

The system utilizes a variety of communication pathways (work phone, cell phone, court email, personal email, text message, mobile application, and desktop popup) to contact employees in the event of an emergency. 9

Training Opportunities for Staff The Court expanded its training and development opportunities for staff, supervisors, and managers. Leadership training includes Learning to Lead, Institute for Court Management, Core-40 for Supervisors, and Leadership Development Institute. As requested by employees, additional training is being offered in the Microsoft Office suite of products. Employee Satisfaction Survey (ESS) In 2015, all employees were surveyed and 75 percent responded. Staff volunteered to work on action teams to address court-wide as well as courthouse-based issues.

Many recommendations from these teams have been successfully implemented. Several more are in the process of being implemented. Continuing Progress: Future Projects In FY 2016-17, the Court will continue its efforts to increase access and improve convenience and customer experience through technology by building upon the progress already achieved. Some of the key projects under consideration are listed below: Enhancement of My Court Card Portal Planned improvements include deploying a true mobile application that will allow for one-button registration.

This will increase online portal use and remote services while reducing average wait time and dedicated staff resources. Partial Reopening of Call Center A call center dedicated to handling Criminal/Traffic matters will re-open during this fiscal year. IVRCC functionality will be enhanced to provide assistance to employees helping the public. Collections Projects Improvements such as being able to set up payment plans online as well as enabling people to pay fines in cash remotely instead of in-person will be explored. 10

OVERVIEW OF BUDGET PROCESS In California, the trial courts are primarily funded by the State. This chart shows the relationship and the development timelines of the State budget, Judicial Branch budget, and local trial court budgets.

State Budget  January 10 Governor submits proposed budget to Legislature.  May Governor issues revised budget, or “May Revise”.  June 15 Legislature adopts a balanced budget.  Within 12 working days Governor reduces or eliminates any budget line items, and signs the budget bill. (Trailer bills needed to implement the budget may be signed at a later date.) Judicial Branch Budget  All year The Trial Court Budget Advisory Committee (TCBAC) discusses and makes recommendations on funding allocation for the 58 trial courts.  July Judicial Council reviews recommendations and approves the allocation of funding to the trial courts.

Court Budget  January - February Financial Planning Office (FPO) makes initial estimate of available funding.  March - July FPO works with Presiding Judge (PJ), Assistant Presiding Judge, executive team, and cost center managers to prepare detailed spending plans.  August - September Finance and Executive Committees review the Court’s budget and make recommendations to PJ. After PJ approves the final budget, FPO prepares and submits the required Judicial Council documents and publishes the Court’s approved budget.

State Budget Court Budget Judicial Branch Budget FY 2016-17 appropriation for Judicial Branch is 1.4% of the State General Fund Budget. 11

FY 2016-17 APPROVED BUDGET Revenue The Court’s FY 2016-17 revenue budget totals $201.4 million. The State Base Allocation (see WAFM discussion beginning on page 3) is roughly 70 percent of the total revenue budget. The FY 2016-17 State Base Allocation is about $2.6 million less than it was in FY 2015-16 due to the continued phase-in of WAFM, change in WAFM rate (from 7.28 percent last year to 7.17 percent this year), and decrease in Proposition 47 funding.

These decreases are net of an increase from new money added to the state budget of $19.6 million (the Court’s share is $1.1 million) and reimbursement for FY 2015-16 benefit cost increases. State-Other 5 revenue is 16 percent, or roughly $36.7 million of the total revenue budget. The next major source of funding is Local Revenues 6 , which includes county reimbursements and cost recovery for the Court’s enhanced collections program.

Facilities Maintenance and the Use of Reserves make up the balance of the Court’s funding. 5 State-Other Revenue includes interpreter, dependency counsel, civil assessment, and children’s waiting rooms. 6 Local Revenues include cost recovery for enhanced collections, non-Judicial Council grants, and reimbursements for County-funded programs. State Base Allocation $141,782 69% State – Other $36,711 18% Local Revenue $20,411 10% Facilities Maintenance $2,461 1%Use of Reserves $4,654 2% Financing Sources (in thousands) 12

Most Court staff costs are paid from the Court’s general fund. The rest are covered by reimbursements from the Judicial Council 7 , local collections, grant programs, the County of Orange, and funding for facilities maintenance. 7 Judicial Council funded positions include interpreters, commissioners, and courtroom attendants. Facilities Maintenance ensures safe and operable court facilities for judges, staff, and the public. County-funded programs include Alternate Defense Services, Pretrial Services, Juvenile Justice Commission, and Grand Jury. AB 1058 grants help litigants and expedite child support cases.

Self-Help grants assist those who are without attorneys. Enhanced Collections assist the public in resolving financial obligations. Court Staff is responsible for the operational and administrative work of the Court. Some interact directly with the public at the courtroom, windows, and counters. Others work behind- the-scenes to process cases, perform legal research, manage exhibits and records, and provide financial, human resources, and technological services. Commissioners preside over cases, Court Attendants support civil courtrooms, and Interpreters assist in 65 languages. 13

Fines and Fees One of the most important responsibilities of the Court is to collect fines and fees, and then distribute them to various entities (the State, County, cities, Court, and various other agencies such as OC Transportation Commission, domestic violence shelters, universities, colleges, school police, Air Quality Management District, etc.) as directed by state statutes. These revenues support various programs that provide services to the public. In FY 2015-16, the Court collected and distributed almost $146.1 million in fines and fees.

The Legislature and Judicial Council set all filing fees and most other fees, while the trial courts are only allowed to locally set fees for specific services or products (such as copy, fax, name search). Trial courts can only set fees to recoup costs, and must be able to justify such fees when requested to do so. In general, the base fine portion of traffic tickets has not changed for nearly 20 years. The total cost of a traffic ticket—above the base fine—is primarily the result of the addition of mandatory penalty assessments and fees created by the Legislature and required by statute.

The judicial officer adjudicating the case may reduce or increase the base fine imposed within the statutory limits. Traffic Tickets are made up of: $ Base fine $ Penalty assessment (added to infractions, misdemeanor and felony offenses) $ Other assessments (such as Court Operations Fee, Conviction Assessment, Emergency Medical Air Transport, Night Court Fee, State Surcharge, etc.) Fines and Fees, FY 2011-12 to FY 2015-16 Did you know? Fees are payments for court case related services. Fines are monetary sums required to be paid as penalty for an offense, such as a traffic ticket.

The Court only retains 6 percent of all funds collected to recoup costs while over 80 percent of the collections go to the State and County. 14

Expenditures Salaries and benefits are 80 percent or $165.7 million of total budgeted expenditures. Funds are allocated to pay the cost of the Court’s regular, limited term, and extra help employees. Services and supplies make up 20 percent of the budget and include items such as contracts for services, equipment, facilities maintenance, office supplies, other services, and technology hardware and software. Salaries and benefits Salary and benefit costs are budgeted at $5.7 million more than actual expenditures from the prior fiscal year.

This increase is largely due to the assumed vacancy rate, negotiated salary increases, health insurance premiums, and retiree health benefits. Retirement costs are slightly decreased in FY 2016-17; however, in FY 2017-18 the Court’s allocation will be reduced by an amount equal to the retirement cost decrease. 15

The following chart provides some additional details about salary and benefit costs over the past several years.

The number of budgeted staff has decreased by 370 since FY 2009-09; however, benefits costs continue to climb. 8 Services and supplies Contract services, which make up 48 percent—$19.5 million— of the services and supplies budget (or 12 percent of the total expenditure budget), are people-driven costs and include items such as contract interpreters, per diem court reporters, court-appointed counsel, and services provided by the County. 8 Non-base expenses include overtime, extra help (except for subordinate judicial officers), and payouts. Historical Look at Salaries and Benefits FY 2008-19 to FY 2016-17 8 16

FUND BALANCE The estimated ending fund balance on June 30, 2017 is $7.2 million, most of which is restricted and can only be spent on specific uses as defined by statute. The table above shows that the Court does not have a cushion to help absorb any huge variances in funding or expenditures. This makes it essential that the Court be vigilant in watching the flow of its resources and to continue to make strategic decisions for the future to preserve long term sustainability of core functions and goals. 17

EXPENDITURES BY PECT The Court is required to prepare and submit its expense budget by major categories referred to as “PECT” (Program, Element, Component, Task). By classifying expenses by PECT, the Court is able to provide the Judicial Council and the State with information about expenditures by case type and by functional type (administrative vs. operational costs). PECT data is used as the basis for calculating the Court’s Indirect Cost Rate Proposal (ICRP), which becomes the official Indirect Cost Rate (ICR) once approved by the Judicial Council.

There are three major PECT categories: (1) court operation costs (referred to as “program 10” costs); (2) non-court operation costs (“program 20” costs); and (3) court administration costs (“program 90” costs). Each PECT has a four-digit number that either begins with a 1, 2, or 9, thus the reason for the three roll-up categories. The Workload-based Allocation and Funding Methodology (WAFM) that was approved by the Judicial Council in 2012 estimates Program 10 salary costs (which are court operational costs, including staff) based on filing data and uses the Court’s

Schedule 7A to determine a benefit compliment. Program 90 staff costs (which are court administrative costs such as Human Resources, Finance, Facilities, and Technology) are estimated using ratios based upon averages taken from the

Schedule 7A. 26

As noted in the following chart, roughly 62% of the total budget by PECT is for courtroom or case type services, with another 22% budgeted for other operations (such as jury services and interpreters). Court administration PECTs are budgeted at 14% of the total PECT budget. In comparison, the Court’s FY 2015-16 approved indirect cost rate, which has a two-year carry forward adjustment, was 20.58% (in-line with the FY 2016-17 budget by PECT). Other non-court operations and enhanced collections account for over 3% of the total PECT budget. Note: Due to rounding, total may not sum to 100%. 27

Chief Executive Office

(302100) Mission Statement FY 2016-17 APPROVED BUDGET The management and administration of all non-judicial operations of the Court are the responsibility of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Funding for discretionary training and travel for non-judicial staff is included here. Once the training and travel request is approved, the expense is charged against the employee's cost center. Once funds are expended, budget is then moved from this cost center to the employee's cost center. This is why actual expenditures are lower than the original budget.

Funds are also budgeted for consultants and lawyers to conduct investigations or handle special projects. The staff include the CEO and the Executive Assistant to the CEO.
