State of California--1998-1999 Judicial Administration Fellowship Program

The Center for California Studies developed the Judicial 
Administration Fellowship Program in response to the need to 
educate and train professionals and leaders in the growing 
complexities of the court system. Building on the success of 
its longtime legislative and executive government fellowships, 
the California State University, Sacramento Center for California 
Studies, selects five Judicial Administration Fellows each year to
participate in a graduate study and professional development program 
in judicial administration.

Field Assignment: Fellows work as professional staff providing
   responsive administrative support to the Chief Justice, the
   Judicial Council, and the courts. Fellows are not law clerks.

   Fellows work in administrative or executive offices of local
   appellate or trial courts. The program also places fellows in 
   the Sacramento or San Francisco Administrative Office of the
   Courts, in the Judicial Education and Research, and Council
   and Legal Services. 

   Fellows commit to full-time, regular office hours during the 
   entire course of the fellowship. Extracurricular work 
   commitments, either paid or civic, are not allowed during the
   regular business hours, Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 
   5 p.m.

Academic Program: Fellows earn 12 graduate credits for successful
   completion of assigned work in the graduate seminar and field
   assignment.
					
Eligibility: Applicants must hold a four-year bachelor's degree
   or complete a B.A. or B.S. with graduation by August 1998.
   There are no preferred majors. Academic backgrounds may be
   as diverse as Social Sciences, Public Administration,
   Business Administration, Criminal Justice, Sciences, Law and 
   Humanities. Post-grad and mid-year applicants are welcome.
   California residency is not required.

Period: 1998-1999 academic year

Award: A monthly stipend of $1,707 for 11 months. Fellows receive
   health, dental, and vision benefits. The program pays for 
   university enrollment and student fees. The program qualifies
   fellows for student loan deferment.
