Page 27
Based upon the Grand Jury’s interviews with two sub-contracting public defenders, a partner from the firm of Maguire & Ashbaugh, and the presiding judge, we believe the county’s public defender contract with the law firm of Maguire & Ashbaugh is serving the needs of San Luis Obispo County well.
No recommendations for this finding

The use of multiple public defenders in the complainant’s case appears to be an aberration, not a pattern. The bulk of the defendant’s complaint appears to be based on a misunderstanding, compounded by a succession of public defenders handling her case.
No recommendations for this finding
