Gov. Rick Snyder this week announced the reappointment of Eric Pelton of Bloomfield Hills to the Board of Law Examiners.
The Board of Law Examiners is responsible for the investigation and examination of anyone applying for admission to the State Bar. Board members are nominated by the court and appointed by the governor for terms of five years.
“I thank Eric for his commitment to this board and I am confident his legal background will continue to be a positive asset to Michigan’s legal community,” Snyder said.
Pelton, who earned his juris doctor from Syracuse University College of Law, will serve a five-year term expiring June 30, 2022.
An alumnus of Michigan State University, Pelton is the managing partner of Kienbaum Opperwall Hardy & Pelton in Birmingham. He is a past president of the Oakland County Bar Foundation.
