Eileen Millett, an attorney specializing in environmental law who’s held several key positions in government offices and private practice, will take the next step in her career later this month as the new counsel to the New York State Office of Court Administration.

Millett, who is leaving her post as a partner at Phillips Nizer, replaces John McConnell, who has since been named as the new executive director of OCA after Barry Clarke retired from that position last month.
