Series 2 Hearing Files 1849-1851, 1961-1995

Physical Description: 141 file folders

Arrangement

Arranged chronologically by hearing date.

Scope and Content

Hearing files created by the Assembly Judiciary and the Judiciary-Civil Standing Committees may include agendas, transcripts, precedent and other background material, internal and external correspondence from interested parties, and relevant news clippings. As mentioned earlier, the records of hearing files for Judiciary range from 1849 to 1851, and 1961 to 1995. Records are absent from 1852 to 1953, and the hearings from 1959-1960 originate from Judiciary-Civil. Since both are standing committees, they are both reflected in the chronological appendix.
Some notable hearing topics from 1849 to 1851 include the public archives, the organization of the courts, promissory notes, authorization of corporations, and immigrants from penal colonies. Between 1954 and 1958, hearings would cover a wide range of topics. They would also be conducted primarily by subcommittees and frequently during the Interim Recess. A sample of topics includes narcotics, domestic relations, uniform acts, capital punishment, police administration, illegal searches, escheat, pornography, constitutional rights, and trade practices. During the short lifespan of Judiciary-Civil (1959-1961), the committee held hearings on topics such as: court personnel, the Uniform Securities Act, prepaid service contracts, and real estate and trust deeds. Between 1961 and 1971, the committee seems to have developed a sociological focus with hearings such as teen drinking, divorce rates, bankruptcy, alcoholism, medical malpractice, organ transplants, consumer credit, environmental abuse, marriage counseling, and family planning. In 1972, the committee began to balance traditionally judicial topics with social concerns. This pattern continued into 1995. Notable topics include electronic recordings, right of privacy, paternity litigation, regulation of the State Bar, community property rights, compensation of judges and other court personnel, cohabitation contracts, attorneys fees, efficiency and organization of the courts, tenant and landlord rights, child custody and support, surrogacy, law schools, and affirmative action.
Hearing files from a select or subcommittee may be found under the series descriptions for that committee. Audio/videotapes have been removed to cold storage and separation sheets are included within the file folders to indicate this.
For a complete list of hearings, see Appendix B in Additional Series Information.

The researcher should note that, while the date of creation for this standing committee series is from 1931 to 1996, the approximate dates of record-keeping are from 1954 to 1999. The earliest subject file of the standing committee dealt with the Civil Discovery Act of 1986. Some notable topics from 1991 to 1999 include anti-trust, the Californians for an Independent State Supreme Court campaign, legal assistants, family law, drug dealer convictions, and trial court funding.

Bill files created by the Select Committee on Administration of Justice may include bill analyses, amendments and resolutions, author's statements, testimony, press releases, editorials and newspaper clippings, correspondence, committee statements, and other information. Assembly Bill 1269 (1968) was considered by the Standing Committee on Criminal Procedure. This bill deals with the topic of parole and relevant changes to the Penal Code. Assembly Bill 1960 (1969) was considered by the Select Committee. The bill deals with the topic of financing the criminal justice system, and sought to amend relevant sections of the Penal Code and the Welfare and Institutions Code. The Select Committee's analysis of both of these bills was likely part of their general purpose of studying the criminal justice system in California.
