Our program begins with the Criminal Justice Section’s presentation of its new award, the Martin B. Adelman Memorial Award, recognizing outstanding efforts to support the Criminal Justice system during the COVID-19 pandemic. The award is named for the late Martin B. Adelman, a highly respected attorney and brilliant advocate, who served as Chair of the Criminal Justice Section from 1991-1993, and passed away in 2020. Marty passionately represented the interests of his clients, while always adhering to the highest standards of ethics.
