South Carolina S0712 prohibits solicitors from representing clients for a fee or appearing in court in their former district for two years after.
South Carolina S0712 amends the state code to establish a two-year cooling-off period for solicitors after they leave office. During this period, they cannot represent clients for a fee or appear in court in the district from which they were elected. This act aims to prevent potential conflicts of interest and maintain public trust in the legal system. The provisions take effect upon approval by the Governor.
