The Superior Court of Los Angeles County (Court) has released findings from its first-ever county-wide poll measuring public perception of the Court, Presiding Judge Sergio C. Tapia II announced today.<\/p>\n

Conducted in February 2025 among a representative sample of Los Angeles County residents, the poll reveals strong public trust in the Court, surpassing that of other government institutions. Respondents also expressed positive views on access to justice and fairness within the Court system. Notably, there was broad support for the Court\u2019s recent initiatives, including reforms to the cash bail system through the\u00a0Pre-Arraignment Release Protocols\u00a0<\/a>(PARPs) and the formation of an eviction diversion roundtable to address the County\u2019s housing crisis. These results will guide the Court\u2019s ongoing efforts to enhance public trust and confidence, offering critical insights into how the public perceives the Court\u2019s performance in areas such as innovation, customer service, fairness, and case resolution.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs the third co-equal branch of government, the Court plays a vital role in ensuring a fair and neutral forum for resolving disputes and upholding the essential checks and balances essential to our democracy,\u201d Presiding Judge Tapia said. \u201cThis groundbreaking poll offers valuable insight into how our community views the Court, highlighting our progress and the work ahead to ensure equitable access to justice for all.\u201d<\/p>\n
