PROFESSIONAL SERVICES AGREEMENT
FOR
PRIMARY CONFLICT PUBLIC DEFENSE ATTORNEY SERVICES
This Professional Services Agreement ("Agreement") is made between the City of Federal Way, a Washington

("Contractor"). The City and Contractor (together "Parties") are located and do business at the below addresses:

1. SERVICES. The Contractor shall perform the services more specifically described in Exhibit "A," attached hereto
and incorporated by this reference ("Services"), in a manner consistent with the accepted professional practices for other
similar services within the Puget Sound region in effect at the time those services are performed, performed to the City's
satisfaction, within the time period prescribed by the City and pursuant to the direction of the Mayor or his or her designee.
The Contractor warrants that it has the requisite training, skill, and experience necessary to provide the Services and is
appropriately accredited and licensed by all applicable agencies and governmental entities, including but not limited to
obtaining a City of Federal Way business registration. Services shall begin immediately upon the effective date of this
Agreement. Services shall be subject, at all times, to observation and inspection by and with approval of the City, but the
making (or failure or delay in making) such inspection or approval shall not relieve Contractor of responsibility for
performance of the Services in accordance with this Contract, notwithstanding the City's knowledge of defective or non-
complying performance, its substantiality or the ease of its discovery.
2. TERM. The term of this Agreement shall be for the period commencing on January 1, 2023, and terminating on
December 31, 2023 ("Term"). The Agreement may be extended for additional periods of time upon the mutual written
agreement of the City and the Contractor. It is the intent of the City and the Contractor to create and ensure, if possible,
continuity for future public defense services for the City. Therefore, on or before June 15, 2023, the City and Contractor
shall meet to mutually explore the extension of this Agreement upon mutually acceptable terms and conditions. Provided,
however, this willingness to discuss extension of the term of this Agreement and compensation for providing indigent
defense services does not constitute a binding commitment or option to extend the term or revise compensation on part of
either the City or the Contractor.
3. TERMINATION.
3.1 Prior to the expiration of the Term, this Agreement may be terminated with just cause by the City or the
Contractor. Just cause shall be defined to mean the failure of either party to perform its obligations as described in this
Agreement, including any violation of the Rules of Professional Conduct (as determined by the Washington State Bar
Association) by any employee or agent of the Contractor, when such failure has not been corrected to the reasonable
satisfaction of the City or Contractor, respectively, in a timely manner after notice of breach has been provided to the other
party. Just cause shall include, and the City may terminate this Agreement immediately, if, as required by this contract, the
Contractor, employee, or designee fails to maintain required insurance policies, breaches confidentiality, or materially
violates Section 12.

3.2 In the event of termination or upon completion of the Agreement, the Contractor shall continue to represent
those clients who have already been assigned to the Contractor, including especially those cases currently set for trial;
provided, however, that, after termination or completion of the Agreement, in the event of a conflict or significant dispute,
pursuant to Court rules and the Rules of Professional Conduct, the Contractor may withdraw from a particular case by either
notice of intent and motion to withdraw and by order of the Court; provided further, however, that the Contractor shall have
no further obligation for any representation of indigent defendants beyond three (3) months from the date of termination,
except for cases set for trial where the Court does not allow withdrawal or as otherwise ordered by the Court. In matters that
are post sentencing, however, Contractor shall have no further obligation beyond six (6) weeks after termination or
completion of the Agreement.
4. COMPENSATION.
4.1 Compensation. In return for the Services, the City shall pay the Contractor according to the methods and
rates as delineated in Exhibit `B." The Contractor agrees that the hourly or flat rate charged by it for its services contracted
for herein shall remain locked at the negotiated rate(s) for the term of this Agreement, unless modified in writing pursuant
to the terms of this Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in Exhibit `B," the Contractor shall be solely responsible for
the payment of any taxes imposed by any lawful jurisdiction as a result of the performance and payment of this Agreement.
4.2 Non -Appropriation of Funds. If sufficient funds are not appropriated or allocated for payment under this
Agreement for any future fiscal period, the City will not be obligated to make payments for Services or amounts incurred
after the end of the current fiscal period, and this Agreement will terminate upon the completion of all remaining Services
for which funds are allocated. No penalty or expense shall accrue to the City in the event this provision applies, except as
provided in paragraph 3 for cases which the City elects not to dismiss after such non -appropriation and refusal of the Court
to permit withdrawal.
5. INDEMNIFICATION.
5.1 Contractor Indemnification. The Contractor agrees to release, indemnify, defend, and hold the City, its
elected officials, officers, employees, agents, representatives, insurers, Contractors, and volunteers harmless from any and
all claims, demands, actions, suits, causes of action, arbitrations, mediations, proceedings, judgments, awards, injuries,
damages, liabilities, taxes, losses, fines, fees, penalties expenses, Contractor's fees, costs, and/or litigation expenses to or
by any and all persons or entities, including, without limitation, their respective agents, licensees, or representatives; arising
from, resulting from, or in connection with this Agreement or the performance of this Agreement, except for that portion of
the claims caused by the City's sole negligence. Should a court of competent jurisdiction determine that this Agreement is
subject to RCW 4.24.115, then, in the event of liability for damages arising out of bodily injury to persons or damages to
property caused by or resulting from the concurrent negligence of the Contractor and the City, the Contractor's liability
hereunder shall be only to the extent of the Contractor's negligence. Contractor shall ensure that each sub -contractor shall
agree to defend and indemnify the City, its elected officials, officers, employees, agents, representatives, insurers,
Contractors, and volunteers to the extent and on the same terms and conditions as the Contractor pursuant to this paragraph.
The City's inspection or acceptance of any of Contractor's work when completed shall not be grounds to avoid any of these
covenants of indemnification.
5.2 Industrial Insurance Act Waiver. It is specifically and expressly understood that the Contractor waives any
immunity that may be granted to it under the Washington State industrial insurance act, Title 51 RCW, solely for the
purposes of this indemnification. Contractor's indemnification shall not be limited in any way by any limitation on the
amount of damages, compensation or benefits payable to or by any third party under workers' compensation acts, disability
benefit acts or any other benefits acts or programs. The Parties further acknowledge that they have mutually negotiated this
waiver.

5.3 City Indemnification. The City agrees to release, indemnify, defend and hold the Contractor, its officers,
directors, shareholders, partners, employees, agents, representatives, and sub- contractors harmless from any and all claims,
demands, actions, suits, causes of action, arbitrations, mediations, proceedings, judgments, awards, injuries, damages,
liabilities, losses, fines, fees, penalties expenses, Contractor's fees, costs, and/or litigation expenses to or by any and all
persons or entities, including without limitation, their respective agents, licensees, or representatives, arising from, resulting
from or connected with this Agreement to the extent solely caused by the negligent acts, errors, or omissions of the City.
5.4 Survival. The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement with
respect to any event occurring prior to such expiration or termination.
6. INSURANCE. The Contractor agrees to carry insurance for liability which may arise from or in connection with
the performance of the services or work by the Contractor, their agents, representatives, employees or subcontractors for
the duration of the Agreement and thereafter with respect to any event occurring prior to such expiration or termination as
follows:
6.1. Minimum Limits. The Contractor agrees to carry as a minimum, the following insurance, in such forms and
with such carriers who have a rating that is satisfactory to the City:
a. Commercial general liability insurance covering liability arising from premises, operations,
independent contractors, products -completed operations, stop gap liability, personal injury, bodily injury, death, property
damage, products liability, advertising injury, and liability assumed under an insured contract with limits no less than
$500,000 for each occurrence and $500,000 general aggregate;
b. Workers' compensation and employer's liability insurance in amounts sufficient pursuant to the
laws of the State of Washington;
C. Automobile liability insurance covering all owned, non -owned, hired and leased vehicles with a
minimum combined single limits in the minimum amounts required to drive under Washington State law per accident for
bodily injury, including personal injury or death, and property damage;
d. Professional liability insurance with limits no less than $500,000 per claim and $500,000 policy
aggregate for damages sustained by reason of or in the course of operation under this Agreement, whether occurring by
reason of acts, errors or omissions of the Contractor.
6.2. No Limit of Liability. Contractor's maintenance of insurance as required by the agreement shall not be
construed to limit the liability of the Contractor to the coverage provided by such insurance, or otherwise limit the City's
recourse to any remedy available at law or in equity. The Contractor's insurance coverage shall be primary insurance as
respect the City. Any insurance, self-insurance, or insurance pool coverage maintained by the City shall be excess of the
Contractor's insurance and shall not contribute with it.
6.3. Additional Insured, Verification. The City shall be named as additional insured on all commercial general
liability insurance policies. Concurrent with the execution of this Agreement, Contractor shall provide certificates of
insurance for all commercial general liability policies attached hereto as Exhibit "C" and incorporated by this reference.
At City's request, Contractor shall furnish the City with copies of all insurance policies and with evidence of payment of
premiums or fees of such policies. If Contractor's insurance policies are "claims made," Contractor shall be required to
maintain tail coverage for a minimum period of three (3) years from the date this Agreement is actually terminated or
upon project completion and acceptance by the City.
6.4 Survival. The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.
7. CONFIDENTIALITY. All information regarding the City obtained by Contractor in performance of this
Agreement shall be considered confidential. Breach of confidentiality by the Contractor will be grounds for immediate
termination. If the City notifies the Contractor of a public disclosure request, and the Contractor believes records are exempt
from disclosure, it is the Contractor's responsibility to make determination and pursue a lawsuit under RCW 42.56.540 to

enjoin disclosure. The Contractor must obtain the injunction and serve it on the City before the close of business on the
tenth business day after the City sent notification to the Contractor. It is the Contractor's discretionary decision whether to
file the lawsuit. If the Contractor does not timely obtain and serve an injunction, the Contractor is deemed to have authorized
releasing the record. If the City has notified the Contractor of a public disclosure request, and the Contractor has not obtained
an injunction and served the City with that injunction by the close of business on the tenth business day after the City sent
notice, the City will then disclose the record unless it makes an independent determination that the record is exempt from
disclosure. Notwithstanding the above, the Contractor must not take any action that would affect (a) the City's ability to use
goods and services provided under this Agreement or (b) the Contractor obligations under this Agreement. The Contractor
will fully cooperate with the City in identifying and assembling records in case of any public disclosure request.
8. WORK PRODUCT. All originals and copies of work product, including plans, sketches, layouts, designs, design
specifications, records, files, computer disks, magnetic media or material which may be produced or modified by Contractor
while performing the Services shall belong to the City. All records submitted by the City to the Contractor will be
safeguarded by the Contractor. Contractor shall make such data, documents, and files available to the City upon the City's
request. At the expiration or termination of this Agreement, all originals and copies of any such work product remaining in
the possession of Contractor shall be delivered to the City.
9. BOOKS AND RECORDS. The Contractor agrees to maintain books, records, and documents which sufficiently
and properly reflect all direct and indirect costs related to the performance of the Services and maintain such accounting
procedures and practices as may be deemed necessary by the City to assure proper accounting of all funds paid pursuant to
this Agreement. These records shall be subject, at all reasonable times, to inspection, review or audit by the City, its
authorized representative, the State Auditor, or other governmental officials authorized by law to monitor this Agreement.
10. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. The Parties intend that the Contractor shall be an independent contractor and
that the Contractor has the ability to control and direct the performance and details of its work, the City being interested
only in the results obtained under this Agreement. The City shall be neither liable nor obligated to pay Contractor sick leave,
vacation pay or any other benefit of employment, nor to pay any social security or other tax which may arise as an incident
of employment. Contractor shall take all necessary precautions and shall be responsible for the safety of its employees,
agents, and subcontractors in the performance of the contract work and shall utilize all protection necessary for that purpose.
All work shall be done at Contractor's own risk, and Contractor shall be responsible for any loss of or damage to materials,
tools, or other articles used or held for use in connection with the work. The Contractor shall pay all income and other taxes
due except as provided in Section 4. Industrial or any other insurance that is purchased for the benefit of the City, regardless
of whether such may provide a secondary or incidental benefit to the Contractor, shall not be deemed to convert this
Agreement to an employment contract. Even though Contractor is an independent contractor, the work must meet the
approval of the City and shall be subject to the City's general right of inspection to secure satisfactory completion.
11. CONFLICT OF INTEREST. It is recognized that Contractor may or will be performing professional services
during the Term for other parties; provided, however, that such performance of other services shall not conflict with or
interfere with Contractor's ability to perform the Services. Contractor agrees to resolve any such conflicts of interest in
favor of the City. Contractor confirms that Contractor does not have a business interest or a close family relationship with
any City officer or employee who was, is, or will be involved in the Contractor's selection, negotiation, drafting, signing,
administration, or evaluating the Contractor's performance.
12. EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER. In all services, programs, activities, hiring, and employment made
possible by or resulting from this Agreement or any subcontract, there shall be no discrimination by Contractor or its
subcontractors of any level, or any of those entities' employees, agents, subcontractors, or representatives against any person
because of sex, age (except minimum age and retirement provisions), race, color, religion, creed, national origin, marital
status, or the presence of any disability, including sensory, mental or physical handicaps, unless based upon a bona fide
occupational qualification in relationship to hiring and employment. This requirement shall apply, but not be limited to the
following: employment, advertising, layoff or termination, rates of pay or other forms of compensation, and selection for

training, including apprenticeship. Contractor shall comply with and shall not violate any of the terms of Chapter 49.60
RCW, Title VI or VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans With Disabilities Act, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation
Act of 1973, 49 CFR Part 21, 21.5 and 26, or any other applicable federal, state, or local law or regulation regarding non-
discrimination. Any material violation of this provision shall be grounds for termination of this Agreement by the City and,
in the case of the Contractor's breach, may result in ineligibility for further City agreements.
13. MATERIALS TO BE PROVIDED. The City shall provide to the Contractor at no cost to the Contractor or the
defendant one (1) copy of all discoverable materials concerning each assigned case, including where relevant, a copy of the
abstract of the defendant's driving record, with the exception of audio and video recordings which shall be made available
for inspection in accordance with rules for discovery. A copy of 911 call recordings intended to be introduced at trial shall
be provided by the City upon request. All documents will be delivered to the Contractor's office. The City shall provide the
Contractor with a copy of the City of Federal Way Criminal Code and any amendments thereto adopted during the term of
this Agreement.
14. STANDARDS FOR PUBLIC DEFENSE SERVICES. The Contractor shall comply with the standards for public
defense Services pursuant to chapter 10.101 RCW, the Washington Supreme Court Orders on Public Defense Standards,
and the Case Weighting System adopted by the City Council more specifically described in Exhibit "D." The Contractor
shall certify to the Federal Way Municipal Court that the Contractor is in compliance with such standards.
15 REOPENER. The parties recognize that the Case Weighting System identified in Exhibit "D" may require
adjustment throughout the term of this Contract which may necessitate additional discussions, or in the event that there are
substantial changes to the law or practice of municipal criminal law, which materially affect the Contractor's ability to
provide Services under this Agreement or the reasonableness of the terms of the Agreement, the Parties agree to reopen
negotiations of this Agreement.
16. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
16.1 Interpretation and Modification. This Agreement, together with any attached Exhibits, contains all of the
agreements of the Parties with respect to any matter covered or mentioned in this Agreement and no prior statements or
agreements, whether oral or written, shall be effective for any purpose. Should any language in any of the Exhibits to this
Agreement conflict with any language contained in this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. The respective
captions of the Sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to modify
or otherwise affect any of the provisions of this Agreement. Any provision of this Agreement that is declared invalid,
inoperative, null and void, or illegal shall in no way affect or invalidate any other provision hereof and such other provisions
shall remain in full force and effect. No provision of this Agreement, including this provision, may be amended, waived, or
modified except by written agreement signed by duly authorized representatives of the Parties. The parties have participated
and had an equal opportunity to participate in the drafting of this Agreement, and the Exhibits, if any, attached. No ambiguity
shall be construed against any party upon a claim that that party drafted the ambiguous language.
16.2 Assianment and Beneficiaries. Neither the Contractor nor the City shall have the right to transfer or assign,
in whole or in part, any or all of its obligations and rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the other Party. If
the non -assigning party gives its consent to any assignment, the terms of this Agreement shall continue in full force and
effect and no further assignment shall be made without additional written consent. Subject to the foregoing, the rights and
obligations of the Parties shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon their respective successors in interest, heirs and

applicable federal, state, local, and City laws including, without limitation, all City codes, ordinances, resolutions,
regulations, rules, standards and policies, as now existing or hereafter amended, adopted, or made effective; as well as the
Rules of Professional Conduct adopted by the Washington State Bar Association. If a violation of the City's Ethics
Resolution No. 91-54, as amended, occurs as a result of the formation and/or performance of this Agreement, this Agreement

performance is a factor. Adherence to completion dates set forth in the description of the Services is essential to the
Contractor's performance of this Agreement. Any notices required to be given by the Parties shall be delivered at the
addresses set forth at the beginning of this Agreement. Any notices may be delivered personally to the addressee of the
notice or may be deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, to the address set forth above. Any notice so posted

the City at law, in equity or by statute. The failure of the City to insist upon strict performance of any of the covenants and
agreements contained in this Agreement, or to exercise any option conferred by this Agreement in one or more instances
shall not be construed to be a waiver or relinquishment of those covenants, agreements or options, and the same shall be
and remain in full force and effect. Failure or delay of the City to declare any breach or default immediately upon occurrence
shall not waive such breach or default. Failure of the City to declare one breach or default does not act as a waiver of the

accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. If the Parties are unable to settle any dispute, difference or claim
arising from this Agreement, the exclusive means of resolving that dispute, difference, or claim, shall be by filing suit under

writing to an alternative process. If either Party brings any claim or lawsuit arising from this Agreement, each Party shall
pay all its legal costs and Contractor's fees and expenses incurred in defending or bringing such claim or lawsuit, including
all appeals, in addition to any other recovery or award provided by law; provided, however, nothing in this paragraph shall
be construed to limit the City's right to indemnification under Section 5 of this Agreement.

warrants that such individuals are duly authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement on behalf of the Contractor or the
City. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and with
the same effect as if all Parties hereto had signed the same document. All such counterparts shall be construed together and
shall constitute one instrument, but in making proof hereof it shall only be necessary to produce one such counterpart. The
signature and acknowledgment pages from such counterparts may be assembled together to form a single instrument
comprised of all pages of this Agreement and a complete set of all signature and acknowledgment pages. The date upon
which the last of all of the Parties have executed a counterpart of this Agreement shall be the "date of mutual execution"

EXHIBIT "A"
SERVICES
Contractor shall provide the following Services in compliance with Chapter 10.101 RCW and the Rules
of Professional Conduct ("Services"):
1. Scope of Services. The Contractor will provide legal representation on the criminal matters referred for
each of these defendants from appointment through trial, sentencing; and post -conviction review. Cases will be
referred based on a conflict with the primary public defender. Cases will include indigent criminal defendants
who are: (a) determined to be eligible by the Court; and (b) charged with violations of State law or City ordinances
committed within the City of Federal Way as appointed to the Contractor, except as provided in section 4 of this
Exhibit. Contractor shall be responsible for each case from the time of assignment until final sentencing,
dismissal, issuance of mandate at the conclusion of all appeals, or the conclusion of any scheduled post -sentencing
matter, whichever is latest; provided however, that the Contractor shall not be responsible for a case if required
to withdraw by the Rules of Professional Conduct, or if the defendant in a case is determined to no longer be
eligible to receive public defender services. If the matter is resolved through a Pretrial disposition, such as a
Deferred Prosecution per RCW 10.05 or a Stipulated Order of Continuance agreement,'then the Contractor shall
be responsible until the court ordered treatment and review hearings have been completed.
The Contractor will provide representation at in -custody hearings to criminal defendants and in -custody
witnesses as appointed. The Contractor will be available to talk and meet with appointed clients in the SCORE
jail, the King County jail, or other facility used by the City within thirty (30) miles of the City of Federal Way.
The Contractor's caseload for Federal Way is set forth in the Case Weighting System in Exhibit "D."
2. Screening. Determination of indigence for eligibility for appointed counsel under this Agreement shall be
determined by an independent screening process established by the City or by the Municipal Court Judge. Such
appointments shall be in accordance with State law. The City shall be responsible for the costs of and handling
the screening process. Should the Contractor determine at any time a defendant is not eligible for assigned
counsel; the Contractor shall so inform the Court and move to withdraw from the case.
3. Case. Case means all charges or allegations arising from the same incident. An individual charged with
several charges arising from one incident would be counted as one incident if written as one or more causes. Each
case that the Contractor is appointed and files a notice of appearance constitutes one "case," regardless of any
subsequent withdrawal and reappointment, for purposes of compensation to be paid to the Contractor pursuant to
Exhibit `B" of this Agreement; except that cases appeared on and then withdrawn from because of a conflict or
because a defendant is found not be indigent are not considered cases.
4. Client Contact. The Contractor will attempt to initiate contact with assigned clients within 24 hours of
assignment. The Contractor will provide their clients with contact information for availability during office hours.
The Contractor will also return client phone calls or other attempts to contact the Contractor within 48 hours,
excluding weekends and holidays. Each assigned case should be reviewed and an opportunity to discuss the case
must be provided for each defendant prior to the first post -arraignment appearance in court.

5. Removal. Any violation of the Rules of Professional Conduct, as determined by the Washington State Bar
Association, or failure to certify compliance with the Public Defense Standards by any Contractor employee or
designee will be cause for removal of that employee or designee from appearance in Federal Way courts and/or
contract termination.
6. Conflicts. Contractor may notify the court and request to be withdrawn from a case where any member
of its firm has a conflict of interest as defined in the Rules of Professional Conduct. The Contractor shall maintain
a written policy explaining how conflict of interest is defined, and identify conflicts as quickly as possible. A
defendant from whom the Contractor withdraws from representation of based on a conflict shall be referred to
the court for reassignment to a conflict attorney at no cost to the Contractor. No payment will be made to the
Contractor for work they performed on cases subsequently identified as conflicts. If a conflict is created and a
conflict attorney is appointed by the Court due to the conduct of the Contractor or designee, then the Contractor
may be billed to reimburse the City the cost expended to provide conflict attorney.
7. Bar Complaints. The Contractor will immediately notify the City in writing when he/she becomes aware
that a complaint has been lodged with the Washington State Bar Association of any attorney who is a member of
the Contractor's staff or working for the Contractor.
8. Associated Counsel. Contractor shall notify the City of any counsel or intern employed or contracted with
by the Contractor. All such counsel or interns shall agree to abide by the standards and terms of this Agreement.
Any counsel employed by the Contractor shall have the authority to perform the Services. The Contractor may
employ outside associated counsel to assist at the Contractor's expense; provided however, that Contractor agrees
to provide a copy of the agreement contained in this Agreement. The Contractor and all associated counsel hired
pursuant to this Section shall be admitted to the practice in the State of Washington pursuant to the rules of the
Supreme Court of the State of Washington. The Parties understand the Contractor may subcontract for defense
arraignment Services for defendants while in custody in the King County Jail, SCORE jail, or other facility used
by the City within thirty (30) miles of the City of Federal Way. Legal interns may be used only in accordance
with Washington State Practice Guidelines and only if properly supervised by the Contractor.
9. Training. Ongoing professional training is a necessity. Standard 14. LG of the Washington Supreme Court
Order requires seven hours of continuing legal education within each calendar year in courses relating to public
defense.

COMPENSATION
1. Compensation. In consideration of the Contractor performing the Services, the City agrees to pay the
Contractor calculated on the basis of the following fees: The City shall pay Contractor the sum of Four Hundred
and 00/100 Dollars ($400.00) per case assigned, except cases only involving post -conviction review or appeal.
"Case," as defined in Exhibit "A," Section 3, for which the Contractor is appointed and files a notice of appearance
constitutes one "case," regardless of any subsequent withdrawal and reappointment; except that causes appeared
on and then withdrawn from because of a further conflict or because a defendant is not indigent are not considered
cases. Except for such additional fees set forth specifically below, this fee shall constitute the total compensation
payable by the City for all public defender services provided while Contractor is responsible for the case. In
addition to the $400.00 per case assigned, the City shall pay Contractor Four Hundred and 00/100 Dollars
($400.00) for each case that proceeds to jury trial and is actually submitted to a jury for deliberation. In the event
Contractor serves as attorney of record for a case appealed post -conviction, the City shall pay the Contractor Four
Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($400.00) for that post -conviction appeal case and any cases joined with it, regardless
if other fees have been previously paid on the caue(s). For cases that have been assigned to the Contractor for
post -conviction review where that the Contractor has not previously been assigned to the case, the City shall pay
the Contractor Sixty -Five and 00/100 Dollars ($65.00) per case. The City shall pay an extra Sixty -Five and
00/Dollars ($65.00) at the resolution of the first case assigned for the year, if the Contractor has not been a vendor
with the City previously.
2 Reimbursable Expenses. Incidental expenses that are reasonable, customary, and actual and that are
incurred by Contractor in performing non -routine portions of the Services, such as transcription costs and other
reasonable costs, shall be compensated according to invoices; provided, however, that such costs shall be deemed
reasonable in the City's sole discretion or as necessary to provide effective legal representation as ordered by the
court in a reasonable amount, and shall not exceed Two Thousand and no/100 Dollars ($2,000) per year. Such
non -routine portions of the Services do not include the costs of case preparation, tracking, case analysis, client
interviews, legal research, briefing, basic investigation, filing, court appearances, document preparation or
processing, court appearances, case negotiations, administration, or similar services normally related to legal
representation. The City shall reimburse the Contractor for reasonable expert witness or investigator fees
necessary to provide effective legal representation at a reasonable market rate where the court orders such expert
or investigator to be employed upon motion of the Contractor.
3. Method of Payment. The Contractor shall submit to the City an invoice in a form approved by the City.
After filing a Notice of Appearance the Contractor may submit an invoice which includes the name of each client
who has been appointed to the Contractor, the charges, and cause numbers. Payment by the City for the Services
invoiced will only be made after the City has reconciled the invoice. Payment by the City for the Services will be
made only after the Services have been performed, a voucher or invoice is submitted in the form specified by the
City, and the same is approved by the appropriate City representative. Payment shall be made on a monthly basis,
thirty (30) days after receipt of such voucher or invoice. The Contractor shall submit a separate invoice after a
case has been submitted to the jury. The Contractor may submit a monthly invoice with any billing for appeals,
expert and investigator fees, transcription fees, or other reimbursable expenses. If the Services do not meet the
requirements of this Agreement, the Contractor will correct or modify the work to comply with the Agreement.

PUBLIC DEFENSE STANDARDS
October 1, 2012
Policy: Provide high quality public defense services by engaging experienced public defenders.
Definition of a Case: A case is defined as the filing of a document, which may include multiple
citations from the same incident, with the court naming a person as a defendant or respondent,
to which an attorney is appointed in order to provide representation.)
Definition of Appointment. Appointment of a public defender is defined as assignment to
represent a defendant as a result of indigent screening.
The caseload for attorneys with less than five years misdemeanor and/or gross misdemeanor
experience will be 300 weighted cases per year.'
(300 cases/year _ 48 weeks (240 working days) = 6.25 cases/week - 5 days = 1.25
cases/day)
The caseload for attorneys with at least five years misdemeanor and/or gross misdemeanor
criminal experience increase caseload will be increased to a total of 450 weighted cases per
year.'
(450 cases/yr _ 48 weeks (240 working days) = 9.375 cases/week - 5 days = L875
cases/day)
The caseload for attorneys with at least five years misdemeanor and/or gross misdemeanor
coupled with five years felony criminal experience will be increased to a total of 540 cases per
year.4
(540 cases/yr - 48 weeks (240 working days) = 11.25 cases per week - 5 days = 2.25
cases/day)
Policy: Provide Public Defenders at the arraignment or first appearances even though the defendant has
not been screened to determine qualifications for indigent defense.
The Municipal Court of Federal Way has a daily in custody calendar, which includes
arraignments/first appearances; and an out of custody arraignment calendar one day per week,
which includes arraignments.' Through contract negotiations the Primary Public Defense Firm
serves as attorney of the day at all arraignments to provide information and counsel to all
defendants even though they may not be appointed to defend them.

As a result, the City recognizes the additional time, but will not count each matter as a case
because it does not meet the definition of a case per the Supreme Court Order (i.e. the attorney
has not been assigned to the case), and it could be an unconstitutional gift of public funds for
those defendants who are not indigent. However, the City's calculation of cases under -the
weighting system identified below will address the additional time at arraignment by counting
it as five percent (5%) quarterly cases assigned for the entire firm to be divided.'
Policy: The City will follow the guidelines of the Supreme Court Order and weight misdemeanor cases.
Stipulated Orders of Continuance (SOC), Deferred Prosecution (DP), Deferred Sentence (DS),
or other alternative disposition weighted 1/3.'
Also, pursuant to the Supreme Court Order the City will count guilty pleas at arraignment as 1
case, because the Public Defender has been assigned the case.8
Policy: The City will weigh Federal Way crimes as listed in the attached Attachment 1.9 The weighting
was provided by the public defenders, reviewed by the Municipal Court Judges, and presented
to Office of Public Defense representatives before implementation. In the event there are
multiple charges for the same incident, the case will be weighted using the highest weighted
charge as the total measure for that case.
The case count for any case that proceeds to trial will convert to one and no longer count as a
fraction.
Policy: The City will continue to utilize alternatives and considers the review/probation hearings as
part of an ongoing case,10
A review/probation hearing will only be counted as a case if the defendant was previously
represented by a different public defense firm." A review/probation hearing without a new
criminal charge under this definition will count as 1/3 of a case.12,
A review/probation hearing with a new criminal charge will remain as weighted at the time of
the original assignment and the new charges will be weighted pursuant to Attachment 1, but
only if the new charge is brought in Federal Way Municipal Court.13
6 Standard 3.3 Caseloads should factor in the type of cases and time involved
7 Standard 3.6 (B)(v) Stipulated Order of Continuance, Deferred Prosecution and Deferred Sentence can be
weighted 1/3
8 Standard 3.5 Guilty pleas at arraignment count as one case
9 Standard 3.6 Cases may be weighted upwards or downwards depending upon complexity
10 Standard 3.6 Cases may be weighted downwards
11 Standard 3.6 Cases may be weighted downwards
12 Standard 3.3 Matters not involving a new criminal charge may be weighted
13 Standard 3.5 A new charge is to be treated as a case; the weight depends upon the complexity
