South Carolina H4255 amends the state code to allow the Attorney General to seek disgorgement in civil litigation and to protect certain materials from disclosure. The bill adds a new section that grants the Attorney General the power to seek disgorgement when bringing or defending an action in the name of the State of South Carolina. It also adds a privilege for materials prepared or drafted by the Attorney General or his staff for law enforcement purposes in the public interest, ensuring these materials remain confidential even after the investigation concludes.
