District of Columbia Courts and Public Defender Service Voluntary Separation Incentive Payments Act

(Sec. 3) The District of Columbia Court Reform and Criminal Procedure Act of 1970 is amended to authorize the DC Public Defender Service also to establish such a program for the Service's employees, again limiting the maximum payment amount to any individual to $25,000.
