Associate Attorney in the Litigation Department.

I represented two incarcerated clients. Both were granted parole between March and April of 2020. With my professor I wrote and filed an emergency Article 78 petition commenced by an Order to Show Cause. The petition was based on errors in a client’s Limited Credit Time Allowance parole interview that resulted in a parole denial after that hearing.I also argued the merits of this Article 78 petition in a virtual court appearance before a civil court judge in NY County. I also argued against Respondents’ motions to change venue and dismiss for mootness. The judge issued a decision denying all of Respondents’ motions and granting our (Petitioner’s) petition in its entirety. I also represented a client at arraignment in New York County, worked on an investigation plan for this client and explained the ramifications of COVID-19 on the speedy trial clock in relation to his case. As part of the pro bono scholars program I attended a weekly two hour seminar at Fordham University School of Law covering topics that affect pro bono representation of clients in all areas of the law.Finally, part of the pro bono scholars program requires sitting for the February 2020 New York bar exam. I took and passed the NY’s February 2020 bar exam.
