Chief Judge
Lippman's State of the Judiciary Address, February 17, 2015
"...an efficient and effective disciplinary
system is fundamental to a sound administration of justice. In
assessing our current system, commentators have raised important and
challenging questions, including whether our departmental-based system leads
to regional disparities in the implementation of discipline, whether
conversion to a statewide system is desirable, and how can we achieve
speedier dispositions that give much-needed closure to both clients and
attorneys.
With this in mind, I am extremely pleased to
announce today the creation of the Commission on Statewide Attorney
Discipline. This new Commission, chaired by Chief Administrative Judge A.
Gail Prudenti, and made up of leaders from both the bench and the bar whom I
will announce in the near future, will conduct a top-to-bottom review of the
system throughout the state to assess what is working well and what can work
better, and to offer recommendations on fundamentally reshaping attorney
discipline in New York." (at pp. 12-13, "Transforming Attorney
Discipline in New York")
