Interim Compensation ORDER #151
_________________________________
In an effort to avoid placing a financial burden on appointed CJA counsel, and
pursuant to the Guide to Judiciary Policy, Volume 7, Part A, Chapter 2, §230.73.10, the
Court hereby authorizes CJA Panel Attorneys to submit interim vouchers for compensation,
without prior Court approval, so long as the voucher exceeds $3,000.00 and is not
submitted within three months of a prior interim voucher in the same criminal matter.
This Order supersedes the provisions of all other General Orders entered by this
Court regarding the authorization of CJA interim payments during the COVID-19
pandemic, including General Order # 148 entered on July 14, 2021.
This Order shall be effective as of January 1, 2022, and shall remain in effect unless
otherwise ordered by the Court. The Court reserves the right to amend, modify, or
terminate this Order at any time.
SO ORDERED.
