*Note: Tables 1 and 2 reflect 2021-22 case referral activity and expenditures as of March 31, 2022.

From 2012-13 through 2018-19, the ACP experienced a sharp increase in conflict assignments involving complex
and high exposure issues. Expenditures in 2020-21 were lower than the prior seven years due to decreased activity
resulting from the pandemic. The referral rate of new conflict case assignments to the ACP increased significantly
in 2021-22 due in part to the addition of Workers’ Compensation matters. Through the first three quarters of
2021-22, the ACP received more case referrals than at any point in its history. At the current pace, the ACP will
receive more than 50 case referrals in 2021-22. In addition, a high number of existing cases are anticipated to
increase in activity during 2022-23 as jury trials that were delayed due to the pandemic are beginning to be
rescheduled.
