Volunteer attorneys for judges' organizations are drafting a lawsuit to force New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer and the state Legislature to give state judges their first pay raise since January 1999. If filed by mid-July, as expected, the associations' suit would be the second before the courts seeking higher judicial pay. New York judges have been growing increasingly impatient after years of being told they deserve a raise only to see progress stalled by unrelated issues to which a pay hike has been linked.
