Chief Judge Jack Tuter and Judge Kenneth L. Gillespie Recognized by the Broward County Bar Association
On Saturday, September 11, 2021, the Broward County Bar Association hosted its 2021 Annual Installation Dinner & Gala at The Ritz-Carlton, Fort Lauderdale. During the induction of the 2021-2022 Officers & Directors of the Broward County Bar Association & Young Lawyers Section, the Broward Bar recognized Chief Judge Jack Tuter and Judge Kenneth L. Gillespie for their tireless judicial service. Chief Judge Tuter was presented with the President’s Award, and Judge Gillespie was awarded the Stephen Booher Award which recognizes jurists who display humanity, integrity, and dedication to the Bench, Bar, and Community. Both awards were presented by outgoing BCBA President Robert C.L. Vaughan.
Congratulations Chief Judge Tuter and Judge Gillespie!
The Seventeenth Judicial Circuit hosted another successful driver license clinic in September, setting up resources in and around the central courthouse to assist county residents with suspended licenses. For those who could not get their licenses reinstated the day of the clinic, they were given information on what was needed to get a reinstatement.
The Circuit began hosting these clinics in 2017, to make it an easy one-stop shop (for many) to get driving privileges restored.
Earlier this week, Judge Andrea Ruth Gundersen had the honor and privilege of administering
the Oath of Attorney for The Florida Bar to Theodore Avi Weiss, Esq. Also present were
Theodore’s mother, and father, David Weiss, Esq.
