Chief Justice Toal calls on General Assembly to create more judges

From the Daily Comet:

Saying South Carolina's courts are in crisis, Toal reiterated her request for three additional judges for both the Circuit Court and Family Court levels. She asked lawmakers to make them at-large positions, so they can rotate to where they're needed most.

"South Carolina has fewer judges and a heavier case load per judge than any other court system in the nation," she said.
