New York Law Journal | Commentary
By Norman A. Olch | December 28, 2023
The duty of lawyers coming to the defense of judges is aspirational and involves defending judges because the judge's rationale for his or her ruling is confined to the explanation provided in the ruling itself. But criticisms of United States Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas are not directed at their rulings but at their conduct—accepting financial assistance or perks and failing to disclose them.

The presidents of Harvard University, the University of Pennsylvania and MIT and the lawyers who prepared them certainly recognized that they would be roasted by at least one or two members of the Congressional committee. And they were undoubtedly correct that hate speech on campus would depend on the "context" in which it was made, a Law Journal columnist writes. But would any intelligent, well-prepared, witness, even testifying truthfully, want to hand a loaded gun to her interrogator, enabling her to aggressively question her as U.S. Rep. Elise Stefanik so ably did?

A Shook, Hardy & Bacon practice chair writes that Gov. Kathy Hochul should again veto proposals before her that would allow out-of-state plaintiffs to sue out-of-state businesses in New York and greatly expand damages and increase the pool of people who can file wrongful death lawsuits.

A bill before the State Assembly would change the State Commission on Judicial Conduct's funding process to mirror the way the annual judicial branch budget is handled, respecting the separation-of-powers principle and recognizing that the commission is created in the judiciary articles of the state constitution and statute, rather than an executive branch agency reporting to the governor.

Drawing on observations gathered by a delegation of New York City Bar Association members who visited the troubled jail complex on Rikers Island, the organization has joined a chorus of voices calling for the facility to be placed into federal receivership.

In the 21st century, thanks to the internet and a wide array of other technologies, a traditional "brick and mortar" office is not only moot, but unduly burdensome on those wishing to practice law in New York state, the president of the New York State Bar Association writes.

Tyrants depend on lawyers to retain power, seek retribution against enemies, and suppress dissent, a Law Journal columnist writes.

New York state is poised to enact a radical change to its employment laws: the elimination of all noncompetition agreements. A sweeping bill passed by the state Legislature in June 2023 now awaits signature from Governor Kathy Hochul, who is considering the measure. Although well-intentioned, this legislation is deeply misguided. The governor would be wise to reject it.

Peter Galasso has previously argued to multiple jurists that AFCs should not be appointed to represent toddlers in child custody cases. Due to the absence of guidance from the Appellate Division, this argument has yet to gain traction in the minds of judges responsible for the appointment of AFCs for toddlers. To safeguard the integrity of the judiciary and to save our clients a substantial amount of money in the process, this misguided practice needs to end.
