New York, March 4, 2011 - Kenyon & Kenyon LLP congratulates Partner Anthony Giaccio, who has been selected to receive the Linn Inn Alliance Distinguished Service medal. The award will be presented by Federal Circuit Judge Richard Linn on March 25, 2011. Recipients of the medal were selected based upon their outstanding leadership in bringing the American Inns of Court experience to the IP community. Mr. Giaccio created the Hon. William C. Conner Inn of Court in 2008 (in New York City) and the Intellectual Property and Innovation American Inn of Court in 2010 (in Albany, NY) and has served and continues to serve as an officer of both organizations.
American Inns of Court are designed to improve the skills, professionalism and ethics of the bench and bar. An American Inn of Court is a collection of judges, lawyers, and in some cases, law professors and law students. American Inns of Court actively involve more than 25,000 state, federal and administrative law judges, attorneys, legal scholars and law students. Each Inn meets approximately once a month both to "break bread" and to hold programs and discussions on matters of ethics, skills and professionalism.
