Bar seeks public member applicants to serve on the Board of Governors
Continuing its practice of public involvement, The Florida Bar seeks a new nonlawyer to serve on its governing board.
Since 1987, two public members have served on the Bar’s 52-member governing board, after the Supreme Court of Florida approved the organization’s request to have nonlawyer representation on the board. Only 12 other state bar associations have public members on their governing boards.
The board member will replace Joseph “Jody” D. Hudgins of Naples whose second two-year term expires in June 2023.
