No amount of remorse may have been enough to convince the Commission on Judicial Conduct to keep Rochester City Court Judge Leticia Astacio on the bench given her actions, state attorneys argued before the state Court of Appeals on Wednesday.
But that didn’t stop her attorney, Robert Julian from Utica, New York, from trying to persuade the state’s highest court otherwise. The Court of Appeals has the power to reject the commission’s recommendation for her removal, which was decided in April.
