Description

South Carolina’s magistrates are the workhorses of the state’s court system, handling hundreds of thousands of misdemeanor cases annually. Most have never practiced law, and they are required to undergo less training than barbers, masseuses and nail technicians. Yet they are entrusted to dispense justice in cases that can send someone to jail for months or saddle them with thousands of dollars in fines.
