Unlike for adults facing prosecution in Michigan, there’s no centralized structure, training, or even budget when it comes to juvenile public defense. In some cases, children face charges with no attorney at all. Today, we’re talking about public legal defense in the juvenile justice system in Michigan and about House Bill 4630, which would provide funding for indigent defense for juveniles.

GUESTS:

Loren Khogali, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union of Michigan

Nathan Triplett, director of public policy and government affairs for the State Bar Association, and board president
