Three judges await designation as Cuomo prepares to leave
With the clock ticking on his final days in office, Gov. Andrew Cuomo could still move to designate several former New York City Appellate Division judges back to the bench.
Justices Sheri Roman, Ellen Gesmer and David Friedman are all awaiting designation from the governor’s office after being recertified to the bench earlier this year.
The three judges were among the 46 judges over the age of 70 who were denied recertification in 2020, only to be invited back by the Office of Court Administration in April.
