#TheCourtNYDeserves: Pushing for a Chief Judge Who Will Protect Our Rights Teach-In
108 West Third Street New York, New York ,10012 (view map)
As the head of both New York's highest court and the entire state court system, the next Chief Judge will set the legal tone in our state for the next 14 years. It is therefore crtiical that we push for a Chief Judge who will commit to protecting the rights of the most vulnerable New Yorkers. Learn from our paenlists about the Chief Judge's powers, the nomination and confirmation process, and how the next Chief Judge will shape the lives of all New Yorkers. As judicial safeguards become increasingly crucial in the face of our waning democracy, it is imperative for all our freedoms that we demand for The Court New York Deserves.
Featuring speakers: NYS Senator Brad Hoylman, Judiciary Committee Chair; Alice Fontier, Managing Director of Neighborhood Defender Services of Harlem; Noah Rosenblum, Assistant Professor of Law at NYU Law
