Question for Ann Bader
Contact Person
The King County Mental Health Court is struggling to balance its success in referrals with resources earmarked for it. Especially in terms of size of court calendars and available calendar time, caseload/ workload numbers, etc. The dedicated defense team and other team members are feeling overwhelmed and are asking how other MHCs address caseload and calendar size. Can you provide info from your court re this? Our caseload is about 1/3 felony reduced to misdemeanor and 2/3 misdemeanor charges.
