Click here for the 2016 nomination form.

The Justice Potter Stewart Award is given annually to individuals who exemplify the very best in the administration of justice. Nominees should be an individual or organization whose contribution to the administration of justice, the legal system, or the administrative aspects of government in the Washington, DC metropolitan area has been significant and sustained. At the annual Justice Potter Stewart Award Dinner, we celebrate two (or, less frequently, three, or even just one) honorees.

The Council for Court Excellence presents the award at our annual fundraising dinner.  Accordingly, the canons of judicial ethics preclude our making the award to any sitting judge.  As well, current CCE Board Directors are not eligible for this award.

In addition to our online nomination process, we also welcome nominations submitted by letter addressed to: 
Justice Stewart Award Selection Committee
Council for Court Excellence
1111 14th Street, NW, Suite 500
Washington, DC 20005

The acting chair of the Award Selection Committee is Paulette Chapman, Koonz, McKenney, Johnson, DePaolis & Lightfoot, L.L.P.
