Attorney Discipline in New York: Four Different Departments, Four Different Approaches—Should Attorney Discipline Be Uniform? In this program, a panel of experts, including Appellate Division justices, will engage in a moderated discussion of the benefits and detriments of New York’s uniquely organized disciplinary system. Among other topics, the panel will explore the different ways New York’s four Appellate Divisions handle attorney discipline cases, highlighting substantive case law and court rules, and debate the relative merits of a uniform system granting every attorney substantively similar procedural rights.
