Attorneys practicing in Greensboro are also members of the 24th Judicial District Bar; membership is mandatory. In September, 2011, the 24th Judicial District was split into two components–one encompassing Greensboro and the other primarily High Point. Attorneys living in areas outside of these two cities were given a choice by the North Carolina State Bar into which judicial district to be placed.
Administration of the 24th Judicial District Bar is located in the office of the Greensboro Bar Association, under the oversight of the North Carolina State Bar–notices and dues assessments are approved by the North Carolina State Bar prior to distribution to members.
The fiscal year runs from June 1st of the current year through May 31 of the following year (and corresponds to the fiscal year of the Greensboro Bar Association). Dues are decided by a vote of the membership at the annual meeting and are assessed on June 1st of each year; a late fee additional is assessed for any dues not paid by August 1. Greensboro Bar Association members may write one check payable to the 24th Judicial District Bar to cover dues for both organizations.
