Kings County Housing Court Bar Association discuss Judge Sherman’s reassignment by supervising Judge McClanahan
Members of the Kings County Housing Court Bar Association (KCHCBA) gathered virtually on Thursday to tackle pressing issues affecting the court system. Association President Michael Rosenthal presided over the meeting, which has been held online since the onset of the pandemic and attracted nearly 75 attorneys, a common turnout in recent times.
A critical topic on the agenda was the performance of Judge Malikah Sherman, who has come under scrutiny for delays in issuing warrants and writing decisions. The concerns have reached the ears of Hon. Kevin McClanahan, the supervising judge of the Kings County Housing Court, and Hon. Josh Stoller, the citywide supervising judge of the Housing Part of the Civil Court of the City of New York.
In response, McClanahan announced via email that he has reassigned Sherman to trial Part P effective Oct. 2, 2023, and will take over her former responsibilities.
