Committee Review Process
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 2018-2019 report
