The Judges and Solicitors Retirement System (JSRS) was created July 1, 1979, to provide a defined benefit retirement plan for South Carolina’s public judges and solicitors. Circuit public defenders were included in the membership of JSRS effective June 27, 2007, and may receive the same JSRS benefits as solicitors, where applicable. This handbook provides an overview of your benefits along with the respective citations from Title 9, Chapter 8, of the South Carolina Code of Laws.
