July 1986: Deukmejian signs Presley's SB 1569, which requires attorneys to provide cli- e,:ts written fee agreements and establishes a system to notify the bar when lawyers are eharged with crimes or malpractice. September 1986: Deukmejian signs Pres- ley's SB 1543. The law re.quires state attorney general to appoint a "discipline monitor" to study and report periodically on the system's operations. It also sets up a Complainants' Grievance Panel" charged with ensuring the bar adequately disciplines miscreant attorneys. January 19B7: Attorne GeneralJohn..VJ1n de Kaµip_.1ppoints longtime consumer a vocate Rober_t Feprr:eth, director of the {l~~ity of ,San Diego s Center for Public Interest Lmlr;-as discipline monitor, May 1987: Stiff opposition from the bar forces Presley to put SB 1498, which calls for extensive refonns of the lawyer discipline sys- tem, into storage until 1988. June 1987: Fellmeth issues his first report, which concludes the discipline system is rid- dled with structural defects, plagued by inade- quate resources, and does not approach "a minimum level of acceptability." In testimony before the Senate Judiciary _ Committee, Fellmeth proposed a multitude of . discipline system reforms. They include: re- placing the volunteer lawyers and laypeople who acljudicate discipline complaints with ad- ministrative law judges; hiring more Investi- gators and prosecutors; increasing pub11c outreach; and supervision of complaint intake by a senior prosecutor. November 1987: Fellrneth issues his second report, which concludes that "the statistical oµtput of the system, the investigative effica- cy, prosecutorial thoroughness, and the State •
