of the Judicial Council and the State Bar. The remaining funds shall be allocated as follows:
|
|
|
|
(a) |
75 percent shall be distributed to qualified legal services projects and support centers that currently provide eviction defense
or other tenant defense assistance in landlord-tenant rental disputes, as set forth in Provision 6. To expedite the distribution
of this
percentage of the $20,000,000, eligible programs shall be limited to those found eligible for 2019 IOLTA funding. Each
eligible program shall receive a percentage equal to that legal services project’s 2019 IOLTA allocation divided by the total

is provided, a minimum amount of $50,000 shall be allocated to each eligible program unless the program requests a lesser
amount, in which case the additional funds shall be distributed proportionally to the other qualified legal services projects.

the State Bar to award grants to qualified legal service projects and support centers to provide eviction defense or other
tenant defense assistance in landlord-tenant rental disputes, as set forth in Provision 6, to meet the needs of tenants not
addressed by the formula provided in subdivision (a). The grant process shall ensure that any qualified legal service project
or support center that received funding pursuant to subdivision (a) may only receive funding pursuant to this subdivision
if that qualified legal service project or support center demonstrates that funds received under this subdivision will be
not be used to supplant existing resources, and will be used to provide services to tenants not otherwise served by that qualified
legal service project or support
center. The commission shall make the grant award determinations. In awarding these grants, preference shall be given
to qualified legal aid agencies that serve rural or underserved communities and that serve clients regardless of immigration
or citizenship status. Any funding not allocated pursuant to this competitive grant process shall be distributed pursuant
to subdivision (a), except that there shall be no minimum funding amount for these funds.

Of the amount appropriated in Schedule (1), $75,000,000 shall be allocated to the Judicial Council to fund the implementation,
operation, and evaluation of programs or efforts in at least 10 courts related to pretrial decision-making. The goals of this

own recognizance and monitored release; (b) implement monitoring practices of those released prearraignment and pretrial with
the least restrictive interventions and practices necessary to enhance public safety and return to court; (c)
expand the use and validation of pretrial risk assessment tools that make their factors, weights, and studies publicly
available; and, (d) assess any disparate impact or bias that may result from the implementation of these programs in order
to better understand and reduce biases based on race, ethnicity, and gender in pretrial release decisionmaking. The amount
allocated shall be available for support or local assistance and shall be available for encumbrance or expenditure until June
30, 2021.
