(a) A "law-student intern" is an individual enrolled and in good standing as a Bachelor of Law (LL.B.) or Juris Doctor (J.D.) candidate at a law school fully or provisionally accredited by the American Bar Association (ABA) who has successfully completed legal studies amounting to one-third of the course work required for graduation from that law school.(b) A "supervising lawyer" is a member in good standing of the Hawai'i bar who assumes the duties of supervising a law-student intern under this Rule and who is ultimately responsible for the activities of the law-student intern.(c) A "clinical program" is a practice-focused law course administered under the direction of a faculty member of a fully or provisionally ABA-accredited law school, in which satisfactory completion entitles a qualified law student to receive academic credit. This may include a law school's clinic courses, as well as its externship or field-placement program.(d) A "law practicum" is an experienced-based law-practice program that is not a clinical program. It is designed and implemented by a supervising lawyer to enable a law-student intern to provide competent, ethically sound legal services, especially, but not necessarily limited to, financially or socially disadvantaged individuals in this state.Renumbered September 1984; amended July 27, 2023, effective 7/27/2023.
