The information on this site is for Criminal Justice Act ("CJA") Panel attorneys and aspiring CJA Panel attorneys. The CJA Panel consists of qualified and court-approved attorneys who are appointed by the court to represent eligible clients who cannot be represented by the Federal Public Defender's office. The CJA Administration also administers a two-tiered mentor program consisting of second chair experience, guidance from experienced CJA Panel members, and a CLE curriculum for attorneys who need federal experience prior to Panel admission.
We are currently recruiting for the CJA Panel and Mentor Program. The application is available here. For information about applying, please email Tamar Singleton, CJA Panel Administrator.
For current CJA Panel members wishing to utilize our password-protected resources, please first log in and then visit our CJA Portal.
