Sec. 1603.4  Procedure for appointment of council.



    At the formal request of the Board, to be made before January 14, 

1976, the Governor may appoint a council for the State. Those council 

members who are attorneys admitted to practice in the State shall be 

appointed by the Governor after recommendations have been received from 

the State bar association. In making such appointments, it is 

recommended the Governor consult with other bar associations in the 

State, representatives of groups concerned with the interests of 

recipients, eligible clients and other interested groups. It is 

recommended that the Governor appoint attorneys who have interest in and 

knowledge of the delivery of quality legal services to the poor, and 

that the remaining members of the council, who are not attorneys, be 

selected after the Governor has consulted with representatives of groups 

concerned with the interests of eligible clients. It is recommended that 

the Governor seek recommendations from recipients in the State before 

appointing any members to the council. Sixty days prior to the 

expiration of a member's term, the Governor shall notify those groups 

mentioned in this Section so that their recommendations may be solicited 

for purposes of appointment of a new member or reappointment of an 

incumbent member of the council.
