From 2012-13 through 2017-18, the ACP experienced a sharp increase in conflict assignments involving complex
and high exposure issues. The rate of new conflict case assignments to the ACP has increased again in 2019-20
and projects to have the highest referral rate in program history. There also remains a high number of ongoing
litigation matters that will be active during 2020-21. These include complex police, employment, and labor matters.
