Missouri SB1109 repeals provisions related to the caseload of public defenders.
Missouri SB1109 repeals existing provisions concerning the caseload of public defenders. It allows district defenders to request a conference with the presiding judge to discuss caseload issues involving individual public defenders. If the judge approves the motion, a conference is set within thirty days. The judge may then order relief, such as allowing cases to proceed without counsel, modifying release conditions, or granting continuances.
