Hill, Roberts, Anderson set to join the board
Three more Florida lawyers are set to join The Florida Bar Board of Governors in June.
Benjamin Hill IV will step into Seat 2 in the 13th Circuit after two others who originally qualified to run for the vacant seat to replace retiring board member Amy S. Farrior withdrew their nominations. Kyle S. Roberts will now represent the 17th Circuit in Seat 4 after his original opponent to replace board member Hilary Creary, who stepped down after being appointed general magistrate for the 17th Circuit Domestic Relations Division, also withdrew from the race. Also joining the board representing the Fourth Circuit is Geddes D. Anderson, Jr., of Jacksonville, whose bid to replace Michael Fox Orr, who resigned after being named the Bar’s president-elect designate, was unopposed after his opponent withdrew.
Hill of Tampa, Roberts of Ft. Lauderdale, and Anderson of Jacksonville will be sworn in along with other returning and new Board of Governors members at the June Annual Florida Bar Convention.
