LANCASTER BAR ASS'N v. SOUTH CAROLINA COMMISSION ON INDIGENT DEFENSE

No. 26568.

380 S.C. 219 (2008)

670 S.E.2d 371

LANCASTER COUNTY BAR ASSOCIATION, Petitioner, v. SOUTH CAROLINA COMMISSION ON INDIGENT DEFENSE, Respondent.

Supreme Court of South Carolina.

Decided December 8, 2008.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Francis L. Bell, Jr. and Mitchell A. Norrell, both of Lancaster, for Petitioner.

James Hugh Ryan, III, of Columbia, for Respondent.


PER CURIAM:

We granted petitioner Lancaster County Bar Association's (Lancaster Bar) request to hear this petition for mandamus and for injunction in our original jurisdiction. At issue is whether respondent's (Indigent Defense) construction of S.C.Code Ann. § 17-3-510(A) (Supp.2007), which determines the membership of each circuit's Circuit Public Defender Selection Panel, is correct. We find that it is, and deny Lancaster Bar's request for relief.
