In her first address to a joint session of the Legislature, Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye said the state's judicial branch, which includes 58 trial courts, six appellate courts and the state Supreme Court, has seen its budget cut by nearly a quarter since 2008. More than $650 million in spend- ing cuts have led to closed courtrooms and clerk's offices in 24 counties, staff layoffs and reduced hours. ''At the same time, sadly, as courts are needed more, our resources are going down,'' Cantil-Sakauye said. The justice said Superior Court fil- ings topped 10 million for the second consecutive year, an increase of 20 percent over the previous decade. In what she termed a ''cruel irony,'' Cantil-Sakauye said the same eco- nomic forces that have led to cuts at nearly all levels of state government are the same ones helping drive an increase in court activity. Those include cases for evictions, debt col- lections and child support modifica- tions. The cutbacks have compounded problems in the courts, which she said already needed to add judicial posi- tions in some fast-growing areas of the state such as the Central Valley. She gave the example of a woman in a rural county who could not receive a restraining order when she sought it because the county court had reduced its hours of operation. The woman spent the night with her child in a car rather than return home to a boyfriend she said physically and sexually abused her. ''The judicial branch has to be ade- SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — The California State University system plans to close spring admissions at most cam- puses next year, and deep enrollment cuts are planned if voters reject Gov.

Calif. chief justice warns of dangerous delays SACRAMENTO (AP) — Califor- thetic but said they were constrained by a steep drop in tax revenue since the recession began in 2007. Assembly- man Donald Wagner, R-Irvine, said her speech lacked some details he would have liked to have seen, notably how she intends to keep open trial courts despite funding challenges. ''She outlined the problems quite clearly. There are no easy solutions,'' said Wagner, vice chairman of the Assembly Judiciary Committee. Cantil-Sakauye delivered her first State of the Judiciary address to the Legislature at a time when her rela- tionships with some trial judges and lawmakers have been strained by the budget cuts and a power struggle over the office that oversees court adminis- tration. She was appointed a little more than a year ago by former Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, but put off what would have been her first address to the Legislature last year amid tense budget negotiations between Gov. Jerry Brown and lawmakers. Last month, Cantil-Sakauye told a group of presiding judges that she wants the Legislature to restore some $100 million in state funding and gen- erate $50 million by increasing court user fees to subsidize operations. Cali- fornia's court system has a $3.1 billion budget, about 2.4 percent of the state general fund. Cantil-Sakauye is pressing her case at the same time she is embroiled in a political spat with lawmakers regard- ing the oversight of the entire court system. It stems from a massive cost over- as many as 25,000 stu- dents, or roughly 6 percent, during the 2013-2014 aca- demic year, he said. ''We're facing an incredibly uncertain situa- tion,'' Turnage told Only eight of Cal State's 23 campuses will admit students for the spring 2013 term, with enrollment limited to several hundred community college transfer students, Vice Chancellor Robert Turnage said. CSU admitted about 16,000 stu- dents last spring. In addition, if voters reject Brown's November tax measure, total enroll- ment could be reduced by reporters on a conference call. ''In the wake of all these cuts we've taken, we really have to bring our enrollments down.'' The system, which cur- rently has 417,000 under- graduate and graduate stu- dents, is curtailing spring enrollment next year after the state reduced funding by $750 million, or 27 per- cent, this year. If voters approve Brown's tax measure, CSU funding would remain flat at $2 billion under the gov- ernor's budget plan in taining 0.7 grams of crys- tal methamphetamine, the release said.

WATERS Continued from page 1A run of a technology project that was conceived to link trial court cases in all 58 counties. The project was supposed to be finished three years ago but is still in development even as costs have ballooned from $260 million to $1.9 billion. A bill passed by the Assembly in January would shift spending authori- ty from the Judicial Council and give individual trial courts more power in setting spending priorities. Cantil- Sakauye has campaigned against the legislation, AB1208, saying it calls into question the separation of powers between the legislative and judicial branches. Since then, the chief justice has appeared to have found allies in the Senate, which has no plans to refer the bill to a policy committee for a hearing. Sen. Noreen Evans, D-Santa Rosa, chairwoman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said the bill would undo decades of work to make the judicial system uniform statewide. During her address, Cantil-Sakauye touted the achievements of the Judicial Council during her little more than a year leading the state court system. As examples, she noted the estab- lishment of courts designed specifical- ly to handle complex civil litigation and mortgage fraud, as well as the needs of military veterans and senior citizens. She also said the court had created a registry of protective orders and established a system of self-help kiosks. At the same time, the justice issued a warning about the number of sus- pensions and expulsions in Califor- nia's schools, some 700,000 in all. She said that dynamic eventually would affect the courts because chil- dren who are not in school will be at greater risk of entering the juvenile justice system.

Cops arrest two in burglary By BARBARA ARRIGONI MediaNews Group WILLOWS — Two men were arrested Thursday in Tuolumne County in connection with an extensive burglary last month in Willows. With the aid of Tuolumne County Sheriff's Office, detectives from Willows Police Department and Glenn County Sheriff's Office located and arrested Kelly Joseph Case, 35, of Red Bluff, and Jason Henry Montsdeoca, 30, of Sonoma. Case and Montsdeoca were allegedly connected to a bur- glary Feb. 24 at the Eagles Lodge on South Colusa Street in Willows. Willows Police Chief William Spears said Friday that numerous items were taken from the building during the burglary, including electronic bingo display boards, all the bingo machines, a pool table, lamps, tables, large commer- cial pots and pans, furnishings, a radio system and eagles mounted on a wall. Spears estimated the suspects took about $6,000 worth of materials, equipment and supplies. A few days ago, local investigators learned some of the property might be in the Lodi area. It was later located in both Lodi and Sonora, Spears said. Detectives from Tuolumne County Sheriff's Office helped identify where the stolen property was and the indi- viduals associated with the it. Willows police detective Troy McIntyre and Glenn County sheriff's detective Darren Ducharry went to the areas Thursday, coordinated with Tuolumne officials and contacted Case and Montsdeoca. The suspects were arrested and transported to Glenn County Jail, where they were booked on charges of being in possession of stolen property. Montsdeoca was also given a bail enhancement due to a prior legal issue, Spears said. Spears said a majority of the stolen property was located and brought back in a trailer the detectives rented. The chief did not know how Case and Montsdeoca were connected to the Willows area. The case is still under inves- tigation. News tip?
