Congratulations! You're getting booked up on the South Carolina Constitution!

You'll probably need to reference it during your pursuit of justice (in federal court; in state court; and/or at DOAH).

For instance, this material might help you recover from the damages that lawbreaking judges/lawyers/agencies/organizations have inflicted upon you [and/or the public] (see this example of a Florida judge who outright committed perjury).

Perhaps it'll [even] help you navigate through your state's administrative gauntlet. A gauntlet which might include – but not be limited to: Nevertheless – and as always – please get the justice you deserve.

Sincerely,
