Former Minnesota U.S. Attorney Thomas Heffelfinger was honored by the Minnesota County Attorneys Association with its Public Service Award at the group's annual meeting last week. The award is presented to an individual who has been "an invaluable friend and advocate of MCAA by supporting legislation or public policy that advances the quality of justice in Minnesota."
Heffelfinger's support for MCAA included:
-- attending Board of Director meetings;
-- seeking input from county attorneys throughout the state; and
-- helping to provide important training for MCAA members.
The group's press release also said that Heffelfinger's attention to the needs of Native American tribes was noteworthy.
