Major Program Changes
  • Medical Investigation Monitoring-The Budget includes $878,000 for the Bureau of Independent Review to monitor investigations of serious misconduct by medical staff at the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR). This monitoring program is proposed in conjunction with the federal health care Receiver in the case of Plata v. Schwarzenegger.

  • Monitoring of Use-of-Force Meetings-The Budget includes $890,000 for the Bureau of Independent Review to attend monthly use-of-force meetings at CDCR. This activity is a critical step in substantiating that CDCR is in compliance with the use-of-force remedial plan for Madrid v. Tilton.
