The NYSBA has argued that the current limit on the number of state judges, capped at one per 50,000 residents, strains the court system in densely populated areas like New York City, Long Island, and the Hudson Valley.
NYSBA President noted that the limit has led to overusing Acting Supreme Court Justices in busy courts, depleting resources and stressing the courts, emphasizing the need for an adequate number of judges.
Former Kings County Democratic Party chair advocates for lifting the cap, stating that Brooklyn's court system is among the largest in the country, leading to significant delays and inefficiencies due to the imposed limit.
