NYSBA President’s letter in SUPPORT of S895-B (Hoylman-Sigal)/ A6789-B (Lee): This bill would require certain social media companies to post their terms of service and to submit reports to the New York State Attorney General on their terms of service and content moderation policies and outcomes. NYSBA’s Task Force on Combatting Anti-Semitism and Anti-Asian Hate completed a report providing a number of recommendations, including support for the Stop Hiding Hate Act. We urge the Governor to approve this legislation.
NYSBA President’s letter in SUPPORT of S206A (Cleare)/ A1432A (Aubry): This bill would remove the lifetime ban on jury duty for convicted felons who have completed their sentence NYSBA’s Task Force on Racism, Social Equity, and the Law completed a report providing a number of recommendations, one of which is to permit individuals who have been convicted of a felony, and who have completed the service of any sentence related to such conviction, to be called to serve in the jury pool. We urge the Governor to approve this legislation.
NYSBA President’s letter in SUPPORT of S7524 (Hoylman-Sigal)/ A10350 (Shimsky): This bill would expand the current authority for the use of e-filing in the courts. NYSBA’s Task Force Report on E-Filing of Court Documents, along with a 2007 report, assesses the impact and benefits e-filing may have on different types of courts: supreme and county, specialized, appellate and federal. NYSBA’s Task Force on the Modernization of Criminal Practice 2023 Report also details the benefits of a state-wide e-filing system. These reports stress the importance of uniform and mandatory e-filing across the NYS court system, as well as the efficiency and equity such a method could provide. We urge the Governor to approve this legislation.
NYSBA President’s letter in SUPPORT of S9839 (Hoylman-Sigal)/ A10540 (Dais): This bill would increase the number of Family Court judges throughout the state as well as increase the number of judges of the Civil Court of the City of New York. NYSBA’s Committee on Families and the Law’s 2022 Report provided a number of recommendations for improving the family court system, including increasing the number of Family Court judges. We urge the Governor to approve this legislation.
NYSBA President’s letter in SUPPORT of S7567-A (Sepulveda)/ A9143 (Tapia): This bill would ensure state-paid judges and justices receive death benefits even if they were not retired by their time of death. In 2015, NYSBA adopted a resolution supporting the amendment of section 60 of the retirement and social security law to allow for state-paid judges and justices of the Unified Court System to elect to have their beneficiaries receive a pension in lieu of the regular death benefit, upon their death while in service, providing state-paid judges and justices with the same benefits that are provided to most other state employees. We urge the Governor to approve this legislation.
NYSBA President’s letter in SUPPORT of A3225 (Vanel)/ S2271 (Liu): This legislation would clarify requirements for acknowledgements, proofs, oaths and affirmations without the state, eliminating the need for a certificate of conformity for an out-of-state affidavit. We urge the Governor to approve this legislation.
