“PD” in our context usually means Public Defender, not police department. For example, it’s confusing to hear “LAPD” helping with expungement. This is extremely important when communicating with justice-impacted individuals, as “PD” has very negative connotations.
- Always use “Pub Def” to abbreviate, rather than PD.
