Judge Judith S. Kaye delivered these remarks at the CityLaw Breakfast on October 18, 2013.
A little more than three years ago—on August 27, 2010, to be precise—I had the privilege of standing before you as part of the CityLaw Breakfast Series. I began by complimenting all of you, as I do today, for arriving at the crack of dawn to chew on the subject of justice for breakfast.
On that beautiful summer day, I was at the time a not-long-retired Chief Judge of the State of New York, a position I call Lawyer Heaven, having moved into a pretty terrific “After-Life” as Of Counsel at Skadden Arps. Skadden not only invited but also encouraged the pursuit of my passion for juvenile justice. (read more…)

On Friday, September 27, 2013 the Center for New York City Law at New York Law School hosted one of its City Law Breakfasts. New York Law School and the Center were honored to have Honorable David N. Dinkins, former Mayor of New York City, as the guest speaker.
Mayor Dinkins was introduced by the Founder and Executive Chairman of Barnes and Noble, Leonard Riggio. For the first time in the City Law Breakfast series, the guest speaker was engaged in a question and answering session instead of addressing the audience directly. The Q & A with Mayor Dinkins was led by Ross Sandler, Professor of Law and Director of the Center for NYC Law, and Anthony W. Crowell, Dean and President of New York Law School.
Mayor Dinkins spoke about his upbringing and education. He reflected fondly back at his time at Howard University, and the influence that his English Professor had on his views on the importance of language. The audience followed him to his journey to Brooklyn Law School and the beginnings of his political career when he first joined a political club. Afterwards, Mayor Dinkins detailed his assent through New York City politics, his race for Manhattan Borough President and election as Mayor of New York City. Mayor Dinkins reflected on his tenure as mayor, his relationship with the media, as well as some of the challenges his administration faced, including the Crown Heights Riots in August 1991.
