Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as well as a brief abstract: This information collection is a census of local prosecutor offices that handles felony cases in State courts. The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) proposes to implement the next iteration of the National Survey of Prosecutors (NSP–13). Local prosecutors occupy a central and perhaps the most influential role in the criminal justice system seeking to ensure justice is served. Prosecutors represents the local government in deciding who is charged with a crime, the type and number of charges filed, whether or not to offer a plea, and providing sentencing recommendations for those convicted of crimes. Since 1990, the NSP has been the only recurring national statistical program that captures these administrative and operational characteristics of the prosecutorial function in the State criminal justice system. A goal of the NSP–13 is to obtain national statistics on local prosecutor office staffing and services, budgets, caseloads and convictions, use of DNA evidence, and disposition reporting to repositories. In addition, this study will collect data on the prevalence of human trafficking, cybercrimes, identity theft, participation in specialty courts and diversion programs, youths in criminal courts and services provided on tribal lands by local prosecutor offices. These data will allow BJS to conduct trend analyses and comparisons with historical data. The information gathered in the NSP–13 will cover 2013. 5. An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount of time VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:34 Mar 17, 2014 Jkt 232001 estimated for an average respondent to respond: An estimated 2,330 persecutor offices will take part in the National Survey of Prosecutors 2013. Based on pilot testing, as average of 60 minutes per respondent is needed to complete form NSP–13. The estimated range of burden for respondents is expected to be between 30 minutes to 1.5 hours for completion. The following factors were considered when creating the burden estimate: The estimated total number of prosecutor offices, the ability of offices to access or gather the data, and the case management systems capabilities generally found within the local prosecutor office. BJS estimates that nearly all of the approximately 2330 respondents will fully complete the questionnaire. 6. An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated with the collection: The estimated public burden associated with this collection is 2330 hours. It is estimated that respondents will take 1 hour to complete a questionnaire. The burden hours for collecting respondent data sum to 2330 hours (2330 respondents × 1 hours = 2330 hours).
