the new grants. The new grants are for
the purposes of: (1) Ensuring that the

the programmatic and fiscal provisions
and reporting requirements for each of
the grants, specifies the application
submittal and approval procedures for
the grants for fiscal years 2006 through
2010, and identifies technical resources
for use by State courts during the course
of the grants. The agency uses the
information received to ensure
compliance with the statute and provide
