Mayor’s office announces 14 judicial appointments
CITY HALL — New York City Mayor Eric Adams has announced 14 judicial appointments and reappointments to Family Court, Criminal Court, and Civil Court. Specifically, Mayor Adams appointed two Family Court judges and three Criminal Court judges, and reappointed two Family Court judges, six Criminal Court judges, and one interim Civil Court judge.
“Public safety and justice are the prerequisites to prosperity, and the judges I’m appointing and reappointing today are deeply committed to both,” said Mayor Adams. “Ensuring that our courts have the judges they need to operate smoothly, efficiently, and effectively will help us continue to reverse the bottlenecks that resulted from the pandemic and that has delayed justice for too many. We are grateful for their continued service as we build a city that is more just and equitable for all.”
“A capable judiciary is crucial to providing fair and efficient justice for New Yorkers,” said City Hall Chief Counsel Lisa Zornberg. “We are grateful to this impressive group of judges for their continued dedication to serving the city.”
