On Wednesday, March 30, 2016, the Orange County Bar Association (OCBA) Board of Directors voted to establish the OCBA Criminal Law Section.
Originally proposed in July 2015, the new section dedicated to the practice of criminal law will provide a forum for open discussions, networking, and regular MCLE programming. It is open for both public and private attorneys—prosecutors and defense, and OCBA members practicing in State and Federal Courts are welcome to join.
The OCBA Criminal Law Section shall embrace all areas of criminal law procedure and practice before state and federal courts. The purposes of the Section shall include the following:
The OCBA Criminal Section's 2016 Leadership is as follows:
Kate Corrigan, Chair Corrigan Welbourn & Stokke, APLC www.cwsdefense.com
Craig M. Cazares, Chair-Elect Orange County District Attorney www.orangecountyda.org
