Awards
The Court Clerk of the Year award holds great honor for a Court Clerk. It is a public recognition, from their fellow Court Clerks, for the devotion they have shown to this profession. This is the Court Clerk who attends to the needs of both the community and other Court Clerks. This is the one in your jurisdiction who everyone knows to call for answers to questions - the one who always goes above and beyond their assigned duties. If you know a Clerk who is deserving of this award, please nominate them today!
