The New York State court system has announced an expansion of its judicial education program for 2024, aimed at enhancing judges’ understanding of bail and securing orders.
Chief Administrative Judge Joseph A. Zayas outlined the initiative’s goal to deepen knowledge of bail laws for judges handling criminal cases.
“In my role as chief administrator of the courts, I am proud to place a renewed emphasis on meaningful education and training opportunities, especially training on an issue, like bail, that is so important to the fair and equitable functioning of our criminal justice system,” said Chief Administrative Judge Zayas.
