Bankruptcy judge J. Rich Leonard has been named the new law dean at Campbell. Judge Leonard completed his undergraduate work at the University of North Carolina, and he earned a law degree at Yale. He has served on the bankruptcy court for the Eastern District of North Carolina since 1992. Judge Leonard has been the editor in chief of the prestigious American Bankruptcy Law Journal since 2011. And a few months ago he published a children's book entitled The House by the Creek, "a tale of the Revolutionary War set in NC, filled with bravery and surprises, and based on a family legend."
