Diverse backgrounds of the nominees match their deep experience; including Abayomi Ajaiyeoba Whint, born in Nigeria and serving as a Legal Enforcement Attorney.
Governor Kathy Hochul signed a law to expand the number of elected judges, granting three new Civil Court judge seats to Brooklyn, the Bronx, Manhattan, and Queens.
