At the Eighth Circuit Judicial Conference, Cynthia E. Nance of the University of Arkansas School of Law received the Richard S. Arnold Award for Distinguished Service in the Western District of Arkansas.
The Eighth Circuit Bar Association presents the Richard S. Arnold Awards to 10 individuals annually. Recipients are selected based on characteristics of Judge Arnold, such as achieving professional excellence in their field and serving as a mentor or role model to less experienced lawyers or students interested in law.
"I am honored by this singular and very special recognition," Nance said. "It is quite meaningful to me given the fact that it is awarded by jurists I know and greatly respect, and it recognizes the extraordinary legacy of the Judge Richard Sheppard Arnold."
