ABOUT THE SUPERIOR COURTS OF CALIFORNIA SEISMIC ASSESSMENT PROGRAM
In November 2003, the Administrative Office of the Courts completed a seismic assessment of court buildings in California. The assessment was mandated by the Trial Court Facilities Act of 2002 (SB 1732, Escutia), the law that specifies the process for the transfer of ownership and management responsibility for approximately 451 of California’s court buildings from the counties to the State. The findings are preliminary since additional information on particular buildings may be forthcoming during the transfer negotiations. Ratings for individual buildings will be periodically added to the report when the building owners and State have concluded the due diligence steps in the real estate transfer process.
