@srfeld@nycla@SenGianaris His constitutional role is to consider the candidate nominated by the governor, not to dictate what background and qualities the commission should require of the candidate or propose a litmus test like McConnell does.
@srfeld@nycla Of course their background and employment history should be taken into account but Sen Gianaris seems to think that only people from certain backgrounds should be considered.
@KaitlynnLisa Your article needs to be corrected. The New York State Bar Association was NOT a plaintiff in the assigned counsel litigation. The New York County Lawyers Association was the lead plaintiff in this litigation, as it was in the predecessor litigation 20 years ago.

Just confirmed @SenTedCruz and his family flew to Cancun tonight for a few days at a resort they've visited before. Cruz seems to believe there isn't much for him to do in Texas for the millions of fellow Texans who remain without electricity/water and are literally freezing.
@DSlotnik I am a past president of the New York State Bar Association and have a relevant document which I would like to send to you. Please provide an email address. My email address is [email protected].
@AnneLaBarbera This is a reporters typewriter that travelled the globe. I also have a 1960s smith corona that’s quite serviceable. I had an old royal but not sure what happened to it. There’s something about a typewriter. Sort of like a book as opposed to a digital reading device. Tactile.
NYSBA webcast Miranda Warnings in the NY Post. Congratulations to NYSBA Past President David Miranda for creating and moderating this valuable forum. Why Harvey Weinstein didn't take the stand at his rape trial https://t.co/npmtBGslkP
The Mets and Marlins took the field, had a 42-second moment of silence, and then walked off.
The only thing left on the field: a Black Lives Matter shirt.
