John R Justice Student Loan Forgiveness Program

This Public Defender Application for the John R. Justice Student Loan Forgiveness Program, is a continuation of the Fall 2022 application.  Any public defenders, as defined by the John R. Justice Prosecutors and Defenders Incentive Act of 2008, and as set forth in Appendix A, page (a) in the attached application packet, are invited to apply.  Prosecutor award recipients have been reviewed and prosecutor awards have been determined.  However, no eligible public defender applicants have been identified. Accordingly, the South Carolina Commission on Prosecution Coordination (“SCCPC”), in its discretion as the South Carolina JRJ Administering Agency for the John R. Justice Student Loan Forgiveness Program, is reissuing this call for public defender applications. 

The application is available here.

ALL PUBLIC DEFENDER APPLICATIONS MUST BE RECEIVED BY ASANCHO-BAKER@CPC.SC.GOV AS A PDF FILE NO LATER THAN 12:00 P.M. EST ON FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 2023.
