Mike Kelly Reappointed to CACI Committee

Mike Kelly has been reappointed by Chief Justice Patricia Guerrero to the Judicial Council’s CACI Committee for a new two year term running through 2026. A member of the original CACI “plain language“ drafting committee, Mike joins Southern California’s Christine Spagnoli as the longest serving members of this important working group. During his tenure CACI has expanded far beyond the scope of its predecessor BAJI. The approved civil instructions now fill three volumes and cover unlawful detainer, lemon law, FEHA, FELA, Civil Rights, Trade Secrets and Elder Abuse. When informed of his reappointment Mike commented, “I am both flattered and honored by the Chief Justice’s confidence in me. In my career there has been no greater volunteer service I have been asked to provide than to make certain jurors are accurately and coherently instructed on the law in all civil trials.” We congratulate Mike on this  recognition and his service to the trial bar over the last 20 years.
