The Contractor shall be solely responsible for the payment of any taxes imposed by any lawful jurisdiction as a result of the performance and payment of this Agreement. EXHIBIT “C” INSURANCE (Attach Insurance Certificate as Exhibit “C”) EXHIBIT “D” CASE WEIGHTING CITY OF FEDERAL WAY PUBLIC DEFENSE STANDARDS Policy: Provide high quality public defense services by engaging experienced public defenders.

The Municipal Court of Federal Way has a daily in custody calendar, which includes arraignments/first appearances; and an out of custody arraignment calendar one day per week, which includes arraignments.5 Through contract negotiations the Primary Public Defense Firm serves as attorney of the day at all arraignments to provide information and counsel to all defendants even though they may not be appointed to defend them.
