An Assessment of the Idaho State Appellate Public Defender’s Office
In an effort to seek continued improvement in the efficient and effective use of state tax-payer resources, the management of the Idaho State Appellate Public Defender (SAPD) retained the services of the National Legal Aid and Defender Association (NLADA) to: evaluate its operations; assess the office’s development over its eight-year existence; note its accomplishments; and, identify improvements in service to its clients, the Idaho criminal and appellate court systems and the greater justice community.
NLADA released its report, "An Assessment of the Idaho State Appellate Public Defender’s Office" (June 2007), finding that the SAPD provides quality legal services for its individual clients in the appellate courts and in post-conviction proceedings in the district courts. The SAPD is an important voice for the criminal defense perspective in the legislative and executive branches of state government, on criminal rules committees, in criminal justice policy forums, and in the broader justice community.
Recognizing the SAPD’s continuing efforts and commitment to provide the best possible appellate legal services for its clients, NLADA offers its assessment and recommendations with the understanding that even a competent appellate defender office is still capable of improvement and advancement.
