Court attorneys group hosts CLE seminar with esteemed Justice Riviezzo at Kings Supreme Criminal Term
On Monday, Sept. 18, the court attorneys of Kings Supreme Criminal Term convened for a timely Continuing Legal Education seminar. The stately chambers of the Kings County Supreme Court, Criminal Term, played host to the event that witnessed a fusion of legal acumen and collegial exchanges.
Formed by Bill and Maria Neri, both court attorneys working within the system, the group was established as a forum to deliberate on issues prominent within the court’s ambit. However, the group’s trajectory has since expanded. Beyond being a discussion platform, it has grown to host quarterly CLEs, promoting the continual professional development of its members.
This past event marked the group’s second quarterly CLE. The highlight was an insightful lecture by Hon. Dineen Riviezzo, a distinguished judge of the Court of Claims. The discourse, aptly titled “Guidelines for Assessing Expert Testimony,” sought to shed light on the nuances and considerations pivotal to evaluating expert evidence in court settings.
