The LS Judiciary offers unique and rewarding roleplay for those who put the effort in. For example, as a solicitor you might do everything from representing a client at a police station to being the crown prosecutor in high-profile court cases. You can apply for the role of judge and solicitor by walking up to our very own paralegal Frank, located on the first floor of City Hall, and filling out the short application form.

Frank also has additional information about the court system that might be useful for someone trying to get more involved. Alternatively you can check out Los Santos Judiciary Homepage (only works in web-browsers, not the F5 menu)
