Shannon was later appointed to The Florida Bar’s Standing Committee on the Rules of General Practice and Judicial Administration Committee, which committee coordinates and proposes new and modified rules of court procedure, serving from 2019 to 2022.

In 2021, Shannon was awarded the Judge Clifton M.
