Join the SC Bar CLE Division on Thursday, November 11th for the 2021 Probate and Trust Administration Essentials Course. This years program was planned by practitioners Scott Hutto and Deidre W. Edmonds.
This seminar is a basic level program.
Requirement to take South Carolina Bar CLE “Essentials
Series.”
Pursuant
to SCACR
Rule 408(a)(3), newly admitted members are required, unless you fall
within one or more of the exemptions outlined in Rule 408 (a)(3)(A)-(D), to
complete one (not all) of the SC Bar CLE “Essentials Series”
courses. Attendance at Essentials Courses not only meets the Essentials
requirement, but also counts toward your required annual 14 hours of MCLE. No
other CLE course, workshop, video series (i.e., the Supreme Court’s Course of
Study), or bootcamp will satisfy this requirement.
The
“Essentials Series” is comprised of 10 full-day courses, which cover major
practice areas, as well as legal ethics. Each course is designed and
taught by experienced practitioners, are process oriented, and are specifically
designed to provide step-by-step teaching, as well as the opportunity to
interact with the faculty.
By
Order
dated May 5, 2021, the South Carolina Supreme Court has waived the requirement
that new admittees attend an Essentials Series course in-person at the SC Bar
Conference Center. Therefore, if you choose to fulfill the requirement
online, you may do so by completing a pre-recorded, on-demand version of the
program of your choice no later than the annual MCLE filing deadline of March
1, 2022. Those programs will be made available at a later date.
We
will, however, offer each of the Essentials Series programs, live, at the SC
Bar Conference Center. There are advantages to attending in person.
1. Programs
will not be available via live webcast but will be available
on-demand.
2. In-person
attendance will afford the opportunity to interact and network with the
faculty.
3. By
Commission rule, only live, in-person MCLE credit hours may be carried forward
to the following MCLE reporting period.
4. Lunch
will be provided for those attending in-person.
5. In-person attendees will be offered significant discounts on SC Bar CLE publications.
This program qualifies for 6.75 MCLE; 0.50 LEPR
