Three Florida law students will receive the Criminal Law Section’s 2023 Student Scholarship Awards during a reception at the Annual Florida Bar Convention this week. Students Haley Kinart and Skyler Jackle of Stetson University College of Law and Victoria Thacker, Florida International University College of Law, will receive $2,500 cash scholarships.

The June 22 reception is in The Boca Raton’s Royal Palm Ballroom I and starts at 6:30 p.m. All Criminal Law Section members and judges are invited to attend and RSVPs are encouraged.

The annual scholarships are awarded to students who have shown dedication to and interest in the criminal justice system as trial and appellate practitioners. Seven law students applied for the scholarships. The Criminal Law Section Awards Committee selected three applicants to recommend to the section’s executive council for a vote. The council voted to extend the scholarship to all three nominees.
