Abstract
Description
The Board of Commissioners of Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, contracted with Temple University James E. Beasley School of Law to provide specific guidance and recommendations to implement best practices for the governance and operation of the county’s Public Defender Office given the current legal framework in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Work on this report was undertaken by the Systemic Justice Project at the Law School’s Sheller Center for Social Justice. To produce this report, the Project examined the external legal regime and organizational structures influencing the Public Defender Office, as well as the office’s internal structure and culture.
