Judge Stroth talks about new programs coming to Brooklyn’s Housing Court
The Kings County Housing Court Bar Association hosted its monthly meeting in Downtown Brooklyn on Thursday, where Hon. Leslie A. Stroth spoke about new money that is coming into the court to help provide representation for low-income citizens.
“There are various programs that have been set up to help unrepresented litigants who are poor, and there is a lot more money flowing into some of those programs than ever before,” said Michael Rosenthal, president of the Kings County Housing Court Bar Association (KCHCBA). “So we were lucky to have Judge Stroth with us today to discuss how the various programs have been affected and how it will affect the court.”
While not a true Continuing Legal Education session, the meeting was helpful to attorneys; they had the chance to hear Stroth speak and were also given the opportunity to ask any questions they might have.
