January 1, 2018 to June 30, 2019

To meet the requirement of pro bono and IOLTA reporting requirements for Maryland attorneys, posted below are the ADR Practitioner Volunteer Hours reports for two time periods: (1) the 2018 calendar year; and, (2) January to June 2019. Maryland attorneys were notified and instructed to use the Attorney Information System (AIS) to complete their pro bono and IOLTA reports for January 1, 2018 through June 30, 2019.

To view your volunteer hours, click on the year/time period next to the bullet point District and Court location headings below. For our multi-district volunteers, the most efficient way to view your volunteer hours is to review both of the ‘Statewide Total Volunteer Hours’ documents.

The lists are organized by volunteer ID number. A volunteer’s identification number can be located on the bottom right corner of the ADR Practitioner’s name badge. Can’t find your volunteer name badge? Please contact Leona Elliott, Director of ADR Roster Management, at [email protected]  or at 410-260-1677, to request your volunteer identification number and a replacement badge.

Additionally, please see the column that appears on each volunteer hours’ list: "# of Days Signed Up/Volunteered." This column represents the number of occasions a volunteer appeared or was scheduled and called off in a Day of Trial ADR program, and provides information about the volunteer’s "activity" within the program. As part of a greater quality assurance initiative, the ADR Office developed minimum volunteer activity commitments to maintain an "Active" status on the Day of Trial roster.

Licensed Maryland attorneys required to report pro bono activity to the Court of Appeals may use this information to support that reporting. For more information about your reporting requirements, please click the following link:

To better assist our attorney volunteers in meeting reporting requirements, we will begin providing biannual reports of volunteer hours in February and August each year.

Thank you for assisting litigants in having conversations that support their self-determination, honor confidentiality, and provide opportunities to express themselves, their thoughts and concerns, and if they so determine, resolve the case and/or the underlying issues that brought them to court.

We look forward to continuing to work with you in 2019 and beyond.
