Court reporter named Employee of the Year at Brooklyn Supreme Court
Senior court reporter Enika Bodnar was named the Employee of the Year at Brooklyn Supreme Court Thursday in front of dozens of fellow court employees and her family members.
“Our honoree is one of the nicest people here in the building,” Supreme Court Justice Bernard Graham said at the ceremony in the lobby of the courthouse. “It was really unfair for anyone else up for nomination because Enika pretty much got every vote there was.”
The Employee of the Year Award was created by former Supreme Court Justice Joseph Bruno in 1999 to boost morale at the busy court.
Bodnar has been working in the court system since July 1996 and started at Brooklyn Supreme Court in March 2007. At the time, she had recently reached a transitional moment in her career, going from courtroom reporting to front office work.
