don't get your response in by such-and-such a date, we'll proceed without you," Anderlini complained. "I understand they were anxious to pro- ceed, but we have to go about our order of business as well," he added. The Select Committee on the Internal Pro- cedures of the Supreme Court was selected by Chief Justice Malcolm Lucas last June to study ways to streamline the court's work- ings. In addition to recommending the trans- fer or lawyer discipline cases, the eight- member panel said appeals from decisions of the state Public Utilities Commission should also go to the Courts of Appeal instead of to the Supreme Court as they do now. Lucas indicated last Tuesday that the court's seven justices will consider the Rich- ardson committee proposals at the court's weekly conference this Wednesday. Wait for 'Bar Judges'? Both Anderlini and Fellmeth sympathized with the court's desire to reduce its work- load, but agreed that the justices should wait to see if the Legislature approves funding of Fellmeth's proposal for a model system of professional "bar judges" because that will reduce the court's work in reviewing the bar's recommendations for disbarment or suspension of a misbehaving lawyer. "There'd be far fewer cases that they'd have to look at," Anderlini said. Under that proposal, the bar would replace its current system of lawyers acting as vol- unteer referees. The new bar judges would be akin to administrative law judges, but bar leaders and Fellmeth ha e shied away from using that term because they insist their judges would be better. In addition to acting like trial judges on hearing panels, the paid judges would also sit on the Review Department, a panel that re- views the decisions of hearing officers. The judges would be paid at the level of superior court judges and Court of Appeal justices, Two homers help Aztecs beat To~ ros Nikco Riesgo~i1 Robbie Bailey hit home runs yesterday to help San Diego State (8-4) beat h~, in a college baseball game.

Fellmeth said. "You will have a quality of dee· IOl'l-mak- ing which is not onlr as good, but bet~r than you have from tria judges at large use you would have judges who know that a ea of the law better than the general trial or appel- late court judges," Fellmeth said. Also under the proposal, the Supreme Court would have the power to decide for itself which disciplinary proceedings to re- view instead of automatically reviewing all proc~dings as the court must do now, f'ell- meth said. The bar's determination of the punishment would become final in cases the court chose not to reVtew, he said. "It just solves the problem of their case- load " Fellmeth said. "From their point of view' it should t>e the best of all possible worlds: they retain control, they retain qual- ity and they don't pay for it because the lawyers would pay for it through their annual dues." "They'd really have to spend only about one-tenth of the time they spend now on these cases," he added. Sending lawyer disciplinary cases to the Court of Appeal would be duplicative since appeal court-quality judges would be sitting in the bar's appellate department, Fellmeth said. And since lawyers could still appeal to the state Supreme Court, sending bar cases to the Courts of Appeal would just add a fourth layer to the process, he added. Gil Olivarria, a public member of the bar Board of Governors who heads the Discipline Committee, said he was not opposed to send- ing discipline cases to the Court of Appeal so long as all the cases went to a single, desig- nated court. "One of the biggest concerns we ad in our committee was that cases would be bounced around amongst the various appeal courts and we would ~et inconsistency, not unifor- mity," Olivarria said. But even that would be redundant under the bar's model system, he said. Azt cs t orthr·dge in baseball ,;z

The president of the State Bar and the monitor appointed by the Legislature to oversee the bar's disciplinary system say they will fight a proposal by a blue-ribbon committee to transfer disciplinary cases from the state Supreme Court to the state Colll'ts of Appeal Both bar president P. Terry Anderlini and bar monitor Robert Fellmeth ai.d-last week they will wrin:!et ers o e Supreme Court opposing last Tuesday's recommendation by a committee headed by retired Justice Frank Richardson. " I think that proposal would be very much of an error. I agree with the State Bar on it," said Fellmeth, attending the Conference of Bar Leaders in Costa Mesa. "I'm disappointed that they took that posi- tion without getting our formal position on att ," d rli · · . en the position that the Supreme Court should retain the final oversight on our discipline process and we have some pretty good rea- sons for wanting it that way." " Historically, it's been the Supreme Court's ta k," the bar president said. "And we need consistency in the review of disci- pline cases." If different panels of appellate judges from the state's six appeal courts starting review- ing discipline cases, the results could vary and create unfairness, he said. "An offense in Northern California should be treated the same as one in Southern Cali- fornia," Anderlini said. The Discipline Committee of the State Bar Board of Governors voted last month to op- pose any transfer of lawyer discipline cases away from the Supreme Court and directed the bar's staff to draft a letter saying so. But the letter had not yet come to the full board for final approval when Richardson's com- mittee issued its report last Tuesday. "Nobody sent me a letter saying if you
