New York Lawyer reports that 6 court officers at Manhattan Criminal Court were caught on camera by that venerable news organization, ”Inside Edition,” drinking alcohol at a bar during their lunch break. The officers were all suspended for 30 days without pay.
Hey, I kind of wish that the court officers in the civil branch of the Supreme Court in the 5 boroughs would start tipping a few back. Maybe that way they’d be a little nicer to attorneys. For those who have spent time in the motion session(s) there, does the phrase “Quiet down, counselors!!!” yelled angrily ring a bell?
