Boston, MA - Chief
Justice for Administration and Management Robert A. Mulligan
today announced that the Trial Court Employee of the
Year is June T. Kelly, a court officer in Norfolk Superior
Court and resident of Norwood. Chief Justice Mulligan
also announced the names of the fourteen recipients of
the 2004 Trial Court Employee Excellence Awards (see
attached). This year the awards recognize Trial Court
employees who have demonstrated exemplary performance
in the workplace and have inspired and motivated others
through their positive examples. Candidates for the awards
are nominated by their supervisors and colleagues.
An awards ceremony will take place
on Wednesday, May 26, 2004, at 1:00 p.m. at the Endicott
House, 80 Haven Street, in Dedham.
Ms. Kelly, a registered nurse,
has been a court officer for nearly twenty years at Norfolk
Superior Court. She is highly respected by the judges and
her colleagues there who cite her exceptional interpersonal
skills, professionalism, and dedication. A model court
officer, Ms. Kelly is known for her ability to maintain
courtroom decorum, often under difficult circumstances,
while being cognizant of the needs of judges, lawyers,
jurors, victims, and witnesses. She credits her fellow
court officers for their good teamwork.
Chief Justice Mulligan said, "It
is a privilege to honor motivated and hardworking individuals
who are recognized as outstanding employees by their supervisors
and peers. Each one deserves our deep gratitude for the
extraordinary work that is performed every day in service
to the courts and to the public."
Since 1987,
the Administrative Office of the Trial Court has honored
Trial Court employees with the annual awards for their
outstanding job performance and commitment to public
service. A thirteen-member committee selected the winners
from more than 200 nominations this year. There are approximately
6,800 employees in the Trial Court at more than 100 court
locations and offices statewide.
