This judicial session New York State Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals Rowan D. Wilson, 62, has put in a lot of work in Albany to get the courts on track after his confirmation hearing in April.

While in Albany, he said that his days are frequently very long, ranging from 7 a.m. to well after midnight. A lot of his time is spent conferring with law clerks, reading, writing and editing. “It’s very different from what a trial judge would have as a day-to-day,” said Wilson about his current workload.
To address the administrative and case backlog that piled up while the chief judgeship was vacant, Wilson said the court office has done a lot of reorganizing in the month. He projects that the cases that were held up should be reargued and handled by this October.“We’re trying to work with the legislature now to get more family court judges and get more support and resources because there’s a shortage there,” said Wilson.
“I took the deal and I went back to see him before the start of my tenth grade,” said Wilson, “and said that ‘I thought about it and I was afraid that people would think what I was saying was stupid or they would make fun of me.’ I realized that was not rational but it was what I was feeling and what I decided to do was join the speech and debate team in high school.”
