PRO BONO REPORTING & CERTIFICATION:


The Supreme Court of Guam’s Pro Bono Program Guidelines require that each active member of the GBA report and certify the number of pro bono hours they completed during the previous calendar year. The report must include a description of the pro bono activities engaged in, if any. There is no mandatory minimum number of pro bono hours required. If no pro bono hours were completed, a member must still report, indicating that they completed no pro bono hours during the previous calendar year. Optional: five (5) pro bono hours may be converted to 1 CLE general credit.
