About this statute
This law establishes ad honórem legal assistant service in the Procuraduría General de la Nación and the Congress of the Republic for voluntary judicial service by law graduates. Autoriza prestar el servicio de auxiliar jurídico ad honórem en la Procuraduría General de la Nación; quien lo preste no recibe remuneración ni tiene vínculo laboral con el Estado. Egresados de derecho que hayan aprobado todas las asignaturas pueden ser nombrados por el Procurador General; las facultades deben enviar listas de estudiantes con mérito académico cuando el Procurador lo pida. The article says the ad honorem legal assistant service in the Procuraduría General de la Nación is exclusive, full-time, lasts nine months, and counts as voluntary judicature toward earning a law degree. Auxiliary legal staff admitted ad honórem at the Procuraduría must carry out legal functions assigned by their office heads, and the Procurador General de la Nación must regulate their obligations.
