Standing Committee Interest Form
The Standing Committee Interest Form will open September 1 and close December 1. The appointment process begins in January and letters are mailed out at the end of May. New appointment terms begin at the end of Annual Meeting each year.
The State Bar Act (Section 81.122) requires the State Bar to review standing committees at least biennially to assess whether there is a continuing need for each committee and if there is any unnecessary overlap of activities. The review includes an assessment of the State Bar Board Policies relating to standing committees and any recommended changes to these policies. Read the 2022-2023 report.
