Eighteen months ago, the first-of-its-kind Judicial Innovation Fellowship launched with the mission of embedding experienced technologists and designers within state, local, and tribal courts to develop technology-based solutions to improve the public's access to justice. Housed within the Institute for Technology Law & Policy at Georgetown University Law Center, the program was designed to be a catalyst for innovation to enable courts to better serve the legal needs of the public. In August, the program will wrap up its inaugural cohort, which placed three fellows in courts in Kansas, Tennessee and Utah. But even though those three fellowships were successful, our guest today, Jason Tashea, the program's founding director and cofounder, says its future is uncertain because its continued funding is uncertain. “These programs are expensive, they are hard to fundraise for,” he says. In today's episode, Tashea, an entrepreneur, educator, and award-winning journalist, joins host Bob Ambrogi to discuss the need for and genesis of the program, the fellowships it supported this year, and his assessment of the program's success. He also shares his thoughts more broadly on the need for innovation in the courts to address the gap in access to justice.

Across the country, outdated and disconnected data systems keep thousands of people stuck in prison or on community supervision long after they should technically be free. Today, Hunter spoke with Serena Chang, a product manager at Recidiviz, a tech nonprofit working to solve this problem and make the criminal justice system fairer, smaller, and more effective. As discussed in the episode with Jason Tashea, the legal system is slow to incorporate new technology. Yet for States and organizations around the country, it's becoming obvious they can no longer operate a legal system based on individuals enter data by hand or relying on the memory of a few overworked officials. This is where Recidiviz enters the conversation. Tune in to hear how Serena and Recidiviz craft individualized, yet scalable solutions that aim at reducing the power and reach of the American prison industrial complex! Guest: Serena Chang, Product Manager, Recidiviz Key Topics: Serena's journey to Recidiviz [5:00] The Problems facing the legal system [6:35] How to craft solutions and how they worked in Idaho [14:25] How states get introduced into Recidiviz' work [23:04] How Recidiviz works on policy [25:10] Ensuring increasing efficiency does not simply increase the efficiency of incarceration [28:37] Preventing the states from using data collected to implement more pro carceral policy [31:27] Ensuring equal access to tools [34:05] Plans for expansion [36:10] How to access Recidiviz' pre-existing tools [38:35] Data Protection [40:35] What would happen if bad/illegal behavior by the state came to light [42:30] Trends Recidiviz noticed in their data collection [44:25] Goals for organization [46:58] How to start partnership [49:15] Offering solutions that do not increase the size and power of the Department of Corrections [51:40] Working with a PD Office [54:20] How to learn more and identify problems [56:22] Resources: Recidiviz https://www.recidiviz.org/ Contact Hunter Parnell: hwparnell@publicdefenseless.com Instagram @PublicDefenselessPodcast Twitter @PDefenselessPod www.publicdefenseless.com
On this episode, Hunter spoke with Jason Tashea to discuss the exciting intersection of tech and the legal system. As the Director and Co-Founder of the Georgetown Judicial Innovation Fellowship, Jason is constantly thinking about ways to ethically integrate technology into the legal world. As an institution predicated on tradition, precedent, and intentionally inefficient legal protections, the legal profession has been incredibly slow to adopt the forward thinking, efficiency mindset so prevalent in the tech world. It is the juxtaposition of the two that sits at the center of today's conversation. How do we ensure that the efficiency goals of tech don't trample the rights of others? How do we make sure that the vitally necessary data collection practices are implemented safely without privacy violation? All these questions and more are explored in this episode! Guest: Jason Tashea, Director and Co-Founder of the Georgetown Judicial Innovation Fellowship Key Topics: How Jason's Career got him here [5:40] Where does the use of tech currently stand in the legal profession [7:50] Access to Justice Gap [9:28] Understanding the difficulties of a public-private partnership [13:41] Lessons from other countries [16:22] Data Privacy Concerns [19:56] What policies need to be implemented to ensure equal access to new tech [23:50] Balancing tech's desire for efficiency with the law's inefficient legal protections [27:05] More ethical issues with law and tech [34:50] Faith in reforms [38:13] Limiting power of centralization of data [40:40] The Fellowship [45:10] Pushing for an Open Source Environment [52:00] Getting into the Fellowship [53:00] What Public Defenders can do to get more tech solutions [56:00] Resources: Links for Judicial Innovation Fellowship https://www.law.georgetown.edu/tech-institute/programs/judicial-innovation/ https://twitter.com/JIFGeorgetown https://www.linkedin.com/company/judicial-innovation-fellowship/ Justice as a Platform https://law.mit.edu/pub/justiceasaplatform/draft?access=wd47u265 A Human Rights Approach to Justice Technology Procurement https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=4246039 How the US can Compete with China on digital justice technology https://www.brookings.edu/techstream/how-the-u-s-can-compete-with-china-on-digital-justice-technology/ Talk Justice Podcast https://legaltalknetwork.com/podcasts/talk-justice/ Code for America https://codeforamerica.org/ Legal Hackers https://legalhackers.org/ Contact Hunter Parnell: hwparnell@publicdefenseless.com Instagram @PublicDefenselessPodcast Twitter @PDefenselessPod www.publicdefenseless.com

In this episode, we're talking about criminal records – or at least, how to get rid of them. In the U.S. approximately 1/3 of all people have a criminal record. Having a criminal record can affect one's job, professional licensing, ability to get housing or government benefits and much more. While legal aid helps many navigate the, often difficult, process clearing their criminal record, the problem is larger than their capacity. In this episode, host Jason Tashea sits down with legal experts to discuss how technology and policy are changing the ways these records impact peoples lives and how the government can better operate - giving people a second chance. Legal Experts: Yousef Kassim, founder and CEO of EasyExpunctions, Sarah Esther Lageson, associate professor at Rutgers University-Newark School of Criminal Justice, and Noella Sudbury, owner of Sudbury Consulting, LLC.

As the justice system continues to digitize, more data is collected and accessible. This information is often a record of some of the darkest hour. The panel of privacy and data security experts discuss how the shift from paper file storage trades risks to losing the hard copies for unpredictable risks to loss of personal privacy and data being used in unexpected and potentially harmful ways long after their legal issue is resolved. The speed of innovation in data collection is outpacing the creation of data policies and cybersecurity practices. What are the additional implications to under-served and marginalized communities? Jason Tashea, a member of LSC's Emerging Leaders Council, hosts the Talk Justice conversation with guests Zach Zarnow, principal court management consultant for the National Center for State Courts (NCSC); Jeff Harvey, CEO of Community Legal Services in Florida; and Shauna Dillavou, CEO of data security service Brightlines. The digitization of the justice system far outpaces the creation of data protection policies. This has consequences for how data is used and what cybersecurity measures protect it. Courts and legal services providers are often left to decide for themselves how to appropriately handle vast amounts of virtual case data. This sensitive information concerning the individuals involved could have wide-ranging negative effects on their lives if shared, stolen or sold. Generally, court proceedings are public, but that meaning has shifted. “What does it mean to be public? I think when the laws were written around what is public and an open court, there wasn't a public that was global in your pocket...that's probably not the public we were meant to have in our open courts,” says Dillavou. The individuals who interface with the courts likely have no real understanding of how their information is collected and stored, and where that information may go. Harvey says that for lawyers to low-income people in need of legal assistance, consent isn't straightforward, either. Lawyers explain to their clients that in order to give free legal services, they have to provide information to their funders, but people facing crises like eviction or domestic violence aren't usually concerned with, or even thinking about, the privacy implications of this data sharing. When your participation in the legal system is compulsory, the destination of your data is out of your hands. This puts the courts in a powerful position, with a great deal of responsibility. “The courts have users that they don't pick, but their users don't pick them either, so they have a duty to be really thoughtful about this, and make sure that when they're talking about terms of service and contracts that they're discussing data privacy: does the vendor have access to this or not? Can we control whether they have access to it or not?” says Zarnow. “As we've accelerated digital adoption, we 've really moved into a new era, particularly for the courts—these are the kinds of questions you can't afford not to ask anymore.”

When Sang Lee set out to begin her own talent management and recruitment company, her two-decades of experience taught her that much of the industry felt like a charade. To change that, she thought of the phrase, "To Thine Own Self Be True" as a guiding principle and from that came the company she co-founded called Thine. The youngest of three daughters from an immigrant family, she had many expectations placed upon her, but while she and her sisters all graduated from Georgetown Law School, her father's dream of a Lee, Lee, & Lee law firm never came into fruition. Instead, Sang found herself in the legal recruiting profession after working as an associate in a large law firm. In 2019, she launched Thine with Jon Strom where they focus on custom assessments and benchmarking for recruiting, leadership skills, and competency assessments to find and build great fits for both the law firms and the attorneys. Thine's use of algorithmic data, Organizational Psychology, and interview insights creates assessments which reflect what it really takes to be a successful attorney within the firm. Check out Thine's and Ari Kaplan Advisor's Report on how the legal industry is approaching hiring, development, and promotion of associates.

In this new episode of the Legal Rebels Podcast, technology writer Jason Tashea talks to Bryan Wilson, editor-in-chief of the online publication. Special thanks to our sponsor, Nexa.
