basis as grants are made available to States under subsection (a)(2).
    (4) A State shall award a contract for the provision of qualified 
legal services in a service area to the applicant who is best 
qualified, as determined by the State, and who in its bid offers to 
provide, in accordance with subsection (c), the greatest number of 
hours of qualified legal services in such area.
    (5) A State contract awarded under paragraph (4) shall be in such 
form as the State requires. The contract shall provide for the 
rendering of bills supported by time records at the close of each month 
in which qualified legal services are provided. A State shall make 
payment to a qualified legal service provider at the contact rate only 
for hours of qualified legal services provided and supported by 
appropriate records. The contract rate shall be the total dollar amount 
of the contract divided by the total hours bid by the qualified legal 
service provider. A State shall have 60 days to make full payment of 
such bills.
    (c) Requirements for the Provision of Qualified Legal Services 
Under a Contract.--(1) The term of a contract entered into under

services were provided to such client.
    (4) A qualified legal service provider shall keep daily time 
records of the provision of services to a qualified client in one tenth 
of an hour increments identifying such client, the general nature of 
the work performed in each increment, and the account which will be 
charged for such work.
    (5) Each qualified client shall be provided a self-mailing customer 
satisfaction questionnaire in a form approved by the authority granting 
the contract under subsection (b) which identifies the qualified legal 
service provider and is preaddressed to such authority.
    (6) Any qualified client who receives legal services other than 
advice or legal services provided by mail or telephone shall execute 
with respect to such services a waiver of attorney client and attorney 
work product privilege as a condition to receiving such service. The 
waiver shall be limited to the extent necessary to determine the 
quantity and quality of the service rendered by the qualified legal 
service provider.
    (7) A qualified legal service provider shall make and maintain 
records detailing the basis upon which the provider determined the

the requirements of this Act and the provider's contract under 
subsection (b). In addition, a qualified legal service provider shall 
conduct an annual financial audit by a qualified certified public 
accountant which encompasses the entire term of a contract awarded

authority which awarded a contract to such provider within 60 days of 
the termination of such contract.
    (9) A contract awarded under subsection (b) shall require that all 
funds received by the qualified legal services provider from any source 
be used exclusively to provide qualified legal services to qualified 
clients and shall impose on the use of such funds the limitations 
prescribed by paragraph (a)(5).
    (10) The authority which awarded a contract shall terminate a 
qualified legal service provider who fails to abide by the terms of 
this section. A breach of contract by a qualified legal service 
provider shall require the authority to terminate the contract, to 
award a new contract to a different qualified legal services provider, 
and to recover any funds improperly expended by the provider, together 
with reasonable attorneys' fees and interest at the statutory rate in 
the State for interest on judgments. If such a breach was willful, the 
provider shall pay to the authority which awarded the contract 
additional damages equal to the one half of the amount improperly 
expended by the provider.

            ``(1) Limitations on prospective relief.--Prospective 
        relief in a civil action with respect to prison conditions 
        shall extend no further than necessary to remove the conditions 
        that are causing the deprivation of the Federal rights of 
        individual plaintiffs in that civil action. The court shall not 
        grant or approve any prospective relief unless the court finds 
        that such relief is narrowly drawn and the least intrusive 
        means to remedy the violation of the Federal right. In 
        determining the intrusiveness of the relief, the court shall 
        give substantial weight to any adverse impact on public safety 
        or the operation of a criminal justice system caused by the 
        relief.
            ``(2) Prison population reduction relief.--In any civil 
        action with respect to prison conditions, the court shall not 
        grant or approve any relief the purpose or effect of which is 
        to reduce or limit the prison population, unless the plaintiff 
        proves that crowding is the primary cause of the deprivation of 
        the Federal right and no other relief will remedy that 
        deprivation.
    ``(b) Termination of Relief.--
            ``(1) Automatic termination of prospective relief after 2-
        year period.--In any civil action with respect to prison 
        conditions, any prospective relief shall automatically 
        terminate 2 years after the later of--
                    ``(A) the date the court found the violation of a 
                Federal right that was the basis for the relief; or
                    ``(B) the date of the enactment of the Stop Turning 
                Out Prisoners Act.
            ``(2) Immediate termination of prospective relief.--In any 
        civil action with respect to prison conditions, a defendant or 
        intervenor shall be entitled to the immediate termination of 
        any prospective relief, if that relief was approved or granted 
        in the absence of a finding by the court that prison conditions 
        violated a Federal right.
    ``(c) Procedure for Motions Affecting Prospective Relief.--
            ``(1) Generally.--The court shall promptly rule on any 
        motion to modify or terminate prospective relief in a civil 
        action with respect to prison conditions.
            ``(2) Automatic stay.--Any prospective relief subject to a 
        pending motion shall be automatically stayed during the 
        period--
                    ``(A) beginning on the 30th day after such motion 
                is filed, in the case of a motion made under subsection 
                (b); and
                    ``(B) beginning on the 180th day after such motion 
                is filed, in the case of a motion made under any other 
                law;
        and ending on the date the court enters a final order ruling on 
        that motion.
    ``(d) Standing.--Any Federal, State, or local official or unit of 
government--
            ``(1) whose jurisdiction or function includes the 
        prosecution or custody of persons in a prison subject to; or
            ``(2) who otherwise is or may be affected by;
any relief the purpose or effect of which is to reduce or limit the 
prison population shall have standing to oppose the imposition or 
continuation in effect of that relief and may intervene in any 
proceeding relating to that relief. Standing shall be liberally 
conferred under this subsection so as to effectuate the remedial 
purposes of this section.
    ``(e) Special Masters.--In any civil action in a Federal court with 
respect to prison conditions, any special master or monitor shall be a 
United States magistrate and shall make proposed findings on the record 
on complicated factual issues submitted to that special master or 
monitor by the court, but shall have no other function. The parties may 
not by consent extend the function of a special master beyond that 
permitted under this subsection.
    ``(f) Attorney's Fees.--No attorney's fee under section 722 of the 
Revised Statutes of the United States (42 U.S.C. 1988) may be granted 
to a plaintiff in a civil action with respect to prison conditions 
except to the extent such fee is--
            ``(1) directly and reasonably incurred in proving an actual 
        violation of the plaintiff's Federal rights; and
            ``(2) proportionally related to the extent the plaintiff 
        obtains court ordered relief for that violation.
    ``(g) Definitions.--As used in this section--
            ``(1) the term `prison' means any Federal, State, or local 
        facility that incarcerates or detains juveniles or adults 
        accused of, convicted of, sentenced for, or adjudicated 
        delinquent for, violations of criminal law;

            ``(3) the term `prospective relief' means all relief other 
        than compensatory monetary damages.''.
    (3) Application of Amendment.--Section 3626 of title 18, United 
States Code, as amended by this section, shall apply with respect to 
all relief (as defined in such section) whether such relief was 
originally granted or approved before, on, or after the date of the 
enactment of this Act.
    (4) Clerical Amendment.--The table of sections at the beginning of 
subchapter C of chapter 229 of title 18, United States Code, is amended
