18 Gavel 1 (1973)

handle is hein.barjournals/gavel0004 and id is 1 raw text is: THE ~Vol. 18 :;o. I LJanuary 1971 PRESIDENT'S LETTR It Is important that every practicing lawyer in the state makes It his business to keep informed on the bills being introduced in this Session of the legislature. Our Executive Director will prepare and mail to each lawyer a weekly Legislative Briefv which should reach your desk every Monday during the session. Review it, and get in touch with Bob Schuller, if you have any suggestions or constructive criticism. I am most p leased with the fine support by many members of the Association who appeared before the House & Senate Cormitteel on the *ne-Yault* legislation. As of this date, only two bills dealing with no-fault have been introduced-- one by the National Association of Independent Insurers, and one by SMAND. It is, however, anticipated that the UNVARA bill will also get into the legislative hopper. Your Executive Cawmittee is convinced the SUMD bill, by far, represents the best plan for our North Dakota citizenso thus, much work remains to be done before the problem Is finally put to rest. Armed with current statistics compiled by our Law Office Management Procedures Camittee, I appeared before the District eadges Association in December concerning an increase in attorney fees for Court appointed counsel for indigent defend- ants. The judges, recognizing the financial burden placed upon court appointed counsel, have approved a raise in guide- lines, effective ismediately. Check with your District Judge for details. Michael R. Mclntee
