Ohio Will Create Voluntary System to Report Pro Bono Work

Sue Altmeyer, Electronic Services Librarian, sue.altmeyer@law.csuohio.edu | September 20, 2007 - 18:13

The Ohio Supreme Court announced that, in conjunction with the Ohio Legal Assistance Foundation, a system for voluntary reporting of pro bono work will be created. The Court rejected a recommendation by the Supreme Court Task Force on Pro Se and Indigent Litigants that pro bono reporting be mandatory. The Court also considered the Task Force recommendation that Ohio adopt a rule proposed by the American Bar Association, known as Model Rule 6.1.
