S.C. Self-Represented Litigant Simple Divorce Packet

By Terrye Conroy

The S.C. Supreme Court Access to Justice Commission, along with S.C. Legal Services, the S.C. Bar and S.C. Court Administration, have just finalized the  Self-Represented Litigant Simple Divorce Packet. The Packet provides instructions and forms for plaintiffs and defendants who cannot afford an attorney but would like to file for divorce based on one-year continuous separation. These forms have been approved by the S.C. Supreme Court. They are available in Word and PDF on the South Carolina Judicial Departments website at http://www.sccourts.org/forms/indexSRLdivorcepacket.cfm. The SC Bar?s Public Services page also includes a link to the Packet at http://www.scbar.org/public_services/.  

We applaud their hard work and dedication. The Self-Represented Litigant Simple Divorce Packet is a big step forward for access to legal information in South Carolina. (Post-TC)
