LARRY G. SMITH PROFESSIONALISM AWARD CEREMONY
In conjunction with National Law Day, the Fourteenth Judicial Circuit will host the Larry G. Smith Professionalism Award Ceremony.
National Law Day is an event which occurs annually on May 1st. Each year there is a different law-related theme - this year’s theme is: “The Constitution’s Promise: Out of Many, One”.
Since 2016, the Fourteenth Judicial Circuit has held the Larry G. Smith Professional Award Ceremony during the month of May.
This annual award was established by the Fourteenth Judicial Circuit’s Professionalism Committee and is presented to a local attorney who exemplifies and advances professionalism.
The award is named after the Honorable Larry G. Smith who served this area as a private attorney, assistant State Attorney, and Circuit Judge.
In 1979, he was appointed by Governor Bob Graham to the First District Court of Appeal of Florida where he served until his retirement in 1994.
The 2025 award ceremony will be held on Thursday, May 22nd, at 3:00 PM in Courtroom C of the Bay County Courthouse.
