Solicitors and solicitorial districts
(1) Solicitors. The General Assembly shall, from time to time, divide the State into a convenient number of solicitorial districts, for each of which a Solicitor shall be chosen for a term of four years by the qualified voters thereof, as is prescribed for members of the General Assembly. When the Attorney General determines that there is serious imbalance in the work loads of the Solicitors or that there is other good cause, he shall recommend redistricting to the General Assembly. The Solicitor shall advise the officers of justice in his district, be responsible for the prosecution on behalf of the State of all criminal actions in the Superior Courts of his district, perform such duties related to appeals therefrom as the Attorney General may require, and perform such other duties as the General Assembly may prescribe.
(2) Prosecution in District Court division. Criminal actions in the District Court division shall be prosecuted in such manner as the General Assembly may prescribe by general law uniformly applicable in every local court district of the State.
Solicitors for each judicial district
The State shall be divided into twenty-one solicitorial districts, for each of which a solicitor shall be chosen by the qualified voters thereof, as is prescribed for members of the General Assembly, who shall hold office for the term of four years, and prosecute on behalf of the State in all criminal actions in the Superior Courts, and advise the officers of justice in his district. But the General Assembly may reduce or increase the number of solicitorial districts, which need not correspond to, or be the same as, the judicial districts of the State.
