As a state agency, the North Carolina State Bar must comply with the provisions regarding records retention in Chapters 121 (Archives and History) and 132 (Public Records) of the General Statutes. These laws mandate that public records be retained and then disposed of in accordance with the functional schedules of the Archives and Records Section of the North Carolina Division of Historical Resources.
As subdivisions of the North Carolina State Bar, district bars must comply with the applicable record retention item. The State Archives Functional Schedule can be found here.
For all records retention inquiry, contact Ashley Ratliff, Agency Counsel.
