A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

TO RECOGNIZE AND HONOR WILLIAM FRICK OF WINNSBORO FOR HIS OUTSTANDING SERVICE AND TO CONGRATULATE HIM ON RECEIVING THE 2019 SOUTH CAROLINA PUBLIC DEFENDER OF THE YEAR AWARD.

Whereas, the members of the South Carolina General Assembly are pleased to learn that the exceptional service of William Frick has earned him the 2019 Public Defender of the Year award. On September 23, 2019, Mr. Frick was named by his peers at the South Carolina Public Defender Association Annual Conference in Myrtle Beach in recognition for his service; and

Whereas, this award recognizes William's tremendous work on difficult cases and his leadership. William has served as deputy public defender for the Sixth Judicial Circuit since the office was established in 2009. With the assistance of his able management, a growing full-time staff fights each day to ensure the constitutional rights of citizens are protected as they represent criminal defendants in Chester, Lancaster, and Fairfield counties; and

Whereas, William Frick, a 1993 graduate of Fairfield Central High School, chose to further his education at the University of South Carolina. He earned both his bachelor's degree and Master of International Business degree before graduating in 2000 from the University of South Carolina School of Law. Currently, William and his wife Elena live in Winnsboro with their daughter. In addition to his duties as a public defender, William serves his community as the chairman of the Fairfield County school board. Now, therefore,

Be it resolved by the Senate, the House of Representatives concurring:

That the members of the South Carolina General Assembly, by this resolution, recognize and honor William Frick of Winnsboro for his outstanding service and congratulate him on receiving the 2019 South Carolina Public Defender of the Year Award.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to William Frick.
