three United States Court Districts in the number of civil c~se filings; and

California is the largest ~ong the ninety-three United States Court
Districts; and

least in a general way, a relationship to population and the n~n~er of civil
filings; and
WHEREAS, the difficulty of getting to the present Courthouse in Los
Angeles from the outlyJ, ng Counties, such as Orange, Riverside and San
Bernardino, due in part to heavy freeway congestion and due in part to the
complete lack of adequate parking facilities near the present Courthouse
makes an additional courtroom location desirable; and
~VHEREAS, the above factors indicate the requirement and des{rabi!ity
of an additional courtroom facility in the Central District of California;
WHEREAS, the location of such an additional facility at Santa Ana in
Orange County would be much more accessible, convenient and desirable, not
