Section 23-3-111 - Delinquency in student loan repayment - Exception for medical hardship

The supreme court is encouraged to establish guidelines to suspend, deny or revoke the license of an attorney who is delinquent or in default on a repayment or service obligation under a guaranteed student loan identified in § 63-1-141(a) or when the attorney has failed to enter into a payment plan or comply with a payment plan previously approved by TSAC or a guarantee agency. The supreme court is further encouraged to establish guidelines that would not suspend, deny, or revoke the license of an attorney if the default or delinquency is the result of a medical hardship that prevented the person from working in the person's licensed field and the medical hardship significantly contributed to the default or delinquency.
