SIXTEENTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT BAR

The State of North Carolina is divided into Judicial Districts. A licensed attorney must belong to a district Bar in order to maintain good standing as an active attorney in North Carolina. You may belong to only one mandatory district Bar, either in the location of your residence or the location of your employment, but not both. JD 16 (formerly JD 14) is comprised entirely of Durham County, North Carolina. Clock over to http://durhambar.net/orgs/judicial-district-change-information/ to find out more about new district numbering.

DURHAM COUNTY BAR ASSOCIATION

The Durham County Bar Association was incorporated in 1982 and is the voluntary Bar for attorneys in the area. Any licensed attorney in good standing can join the DCBA, including those who are not assigned to the Fourteenth Judicial District Bar. The DCBA hosts events during the year which provide 100% of the statute-mandated CLE hours that every licensed attorney must obtain. In addition, the DCBA provides luncheons and social events that are only for its members.
