State Bar Association holds drive-through parade for new President Scott Karson
The 123rd president in the history of the New York State Bar Association had as unique an installation as any when members of the bar held a drive-through ceremony for him outside of his house on Sunday.
Scott Karson was slated to be officially sworn in by New York State Chief Judge Janet DiFiore during a virtual installation on Monday night, but members of the Bar Association drove past Karson’s house to mark the occasion and shout some words of encouragement from their cars.
Karson, a Stony Brook resident and Syracuse University College of Law graduate, will replace Hank Greenberg as president of the statewide organization.
