Phlilip Nulud was recently appointed Co-Chair of the Bench Bar Coalition. He was sworn in by the Chief Justice at the Annual Meeting of the California Judges Association.
The Bench-Bar Coalition (BBC) was formed in 1993 under the leadership of the California Association of Local Bars (CALB), the State Bar of California, and the Judicial Council to enhance communication and coordinate activities with the state, local, and specialty bar associations on issues of common interest to the judicial branch-particularly in the legislative arena. Securing adequate, dependable, and stable funding for the trial courts has been a primary focus for the BBC. BBC membership is open to members of the bench and bar including judges and the presidents, past-presidents, presidents-elect, executive directors, or other person(s) designated by the president, of state, local, minority, or specialty bar associations; legal services organizations; or statewide organizations dedicated to improving the justice system.
