Federal CJA Rates Change

UPDATE: These rates have been amended since the date of this post. For an updated list, see this new posting.

The federal CJA (Criminal Justice Act) rates for mileage changed effective January 1, 2009.  Therefore, I needed to update my rate and mileage charts.  In case you need a similar chart, feel free to print mine out and stick it somewhere:
