LeGaL’s Judiciary Committee (the “Committee”) interviews and evaluates all candidates for judicial office who seek our evaluation. In advance of the June 2023 Primary Election, the Committee will interview candidates for Judge of the New York City Civil Court. We invite all candidates on the ballot to interview before the Committee.
To be evaluated by the Committee, candidates should forward a completed copy of a recent Uniform Judicial Questionnaire, a questionnaire submitted to a county or district judicial screening panel, or other similar application (including a resume, references, and writing samples) via e-mail as one pdf attachment to judiciary@lgbtbarny.org on or before May 4, 2023. The Committee encourages candidates to include information demonstrating their commitment to the equality of rights for all LGBTQ+ persons.
After the Committee receives a candidate’s application materials, a video interview will be scheduled. Presently, we have reserved Monday evenings, between May 8th and June 19th, except for Memorial Day (May 29th), for these interviews, starting at approximately 6pm, and we will schedule additional dates as necessary. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at the e-mail address set forth above. Thank you for your interest.
