Housing Court Bar Association says goodbye to retiring colleague
Judge Kuzniewski Lectures on Adult Protective Services
The Kings County Housing Court packed Rocco’s Tacos in Downtown Brooklyn on Thursday for its first monthly meeting since the summer break. Many attorneys were on hand to meet a new judge, listen to a lecture from a veteran judge and to say goodbye to a retiring attorney.
“It’s gratifying to see so many people here for this meeting today,” said President Michael Rosenthal. “I’ve been trying to figure out why, and I think it’s one of three reasons, but whatever your reason, I’m glad that you came. Come more often.”
The Housing Court Bar Association meetings, which are typically held on the first Thursday of the month at Rocco’s, are more informal than typical bar association meetings, as no Continuing Legal Education credits are given out. Still, they are useful to attorneys as there is usually a Housing Court judge on hand for a discussion.
