Duluth Chief Judge Receives the Liberty Bell Award

Duluth, Georgia (May 15, 2012) – Duluth’s Chief Judge, Charles Barrett, received the Liberty Bell Award on April 27, 2012. The award was presented to Judge Barrett by the Gwinnett County Bar Association at the “Law Day Banquet” at the Hudgens Center for the Arts.

The Liberty Bell Award was established more than 40 years ago to acknowledge outstanding public service and community involvement. “Judge Barrett has always conducted his courtroom with fairness, respect, and dignity, and has been a great mentor for me in both the courtroom and the community,” said fellow Duluth Judge Kathy Schrader.

Judge Barrett has served on the bench of the Duluth Municipal Court since 2001 and has developed many community programs in addition to presiding over the Court on a day to day basis. The City of Duluth is privileged to have such an outstanding public servant as Chief Judge. Congratulations Judge Barrett!
