Charleston County’s Clerk of Court hosted eight judges and court officials from the Supreme Court of the Republic of Korea on Dec. 3 and 4, 2007. The visitors came to observe the local court system because the adoption of a jury system in Korea is currently being considered. During the two-day period, the delegation expressed its wishes to specifically learn more about oral arguments and proceedings, how judges preside over jury trials, as well as various details regarding trial procedures.
