On November 8, 2021, the Broward County Bar Association, along with 9 Bar Associations in Florida, hosted “The Florida Patriot: Honoring Legal Leader Veterans’ Service To Country & Community” Zoom event. Legal leaders from nine circuits across the state were recognized for their service to our country and to their community. Judge Edward H. Merrigan, who created our Veterans Court and is a Brigadier General in the Army Reserves, received the award for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit.
To Judge Merrigan, and all our Veterans, thank you for your service!
