Barry M. Cohen Champion of Justice Award

---

PBACDL's Champion of Justice Award honors the legacy of Judge Barry M. Cohen, for whom the award was named. Each year, PBACDL selects an individual from our community to honor for their commitment to justice in criminal law. While past honorees have been judges, in 2013 the award was renamed to the "Barry M. Cohen Champion of Justice Award" and expanded to include anyone who exhibits "courage and integrity in seeking justice and fairness in criminal law."
