IN RE I PROBATE COURT REORGANIZATION

Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS vacancies resulting from the Early Retirement Incentive
Program offered in December, 1993, provided the Court with the
opportunity to conduct an extensive review of its operational structure;

most effective manner; and
WHEREAS these problems include confusion of role and responsibility
as to certain assignments and communication across and within divisions;
and
WHEREAS other identified operational problems include an imbalance
in workloads across divisions and conflicting philosophies, beliefs, and
practices among division staff which further reduce efficiency and
overall quality and quantity of service; and
WHEREAS the Probate Court has identified improvements that can be
gained through combining several key functions and reorganizing the
workflow; and
WHEREAS the Court believes that its decision making and problem

more accountable and proactive; and
