Podcasts about administrative judge

I have appeared before Judge Carol Ricciardello many times over the years for security clearance revocation hearings. She served for the last twenty years as an Administrative Judge with the Department of Defense (DOD)  Defense Office of Hearings and Appeals (DOHA) where she heard and decided over 1,700 security clearance cases during her tenure. This was really the second job in her career, as she first served for over 20 years on active-duty with the United States Navy, rising to ultimately serve as the Chief Judge of the Navy-Marine Corps Trial Judiciary covering and supervising all Navy and Marine Corps Trial Judges around the world. Carol retired from the U.S. Navy as a highly decorated 0-6 Captain.  I have always liked her spirit, and I found her to be very smart, thoughtful, and straight forward.  I have been waiting for her retirement in order to do this podcast with her to learn her story.  I hope you enjoy it!   PS. You may also like a podcast I did with one of Carol's colleagues, retired DOD DOHA Judge Michael Leonard here.

Justice Patricia M. DiMango serves as one of three judges on Amazon Freevee's Tribunal Justice, created by Judge Judy Sheindlin. Most recently, Justice DiMango was a judge on the Emmy-nominated series, "Hot Bench." Justice DiMango was first appointed to serve as a Judge of the Criminal Courts for the City of New York by Mayor Rudolph Giuliani. She became the first Italian-American woman ever appointed to that position. Thereafter, she was elected to the New York State Supreme Court bench in the 2nd and 11th Judicial Districts, and again was the first Italian-American woman elected to that position. Justice DiMango's reputation was that of a stern but fair judge combined with a balance of street smarts and legal knowledge. In the course of her judicial career she gained public recognition for handling high-profile trials, particularly those involving murders of young children, other crimes against children and hate-crime murders. She was also recognized for handling large volumes of serious felony cases from their arraignment through trial. Justice DiMango became further known for her efficiency in closing a vast number of cases in a fair and timely fashion. Her judicial acumens came to the attention of the Chief Judge of the State of New York and selected her to spearhead his initiative to reduce the backlog of felony matters in the Bronx. This initiative garnered front-page coverage in The New York Times. These assignments resulted in her appointment to the position of Administrative Judge of the New York State Supreme Court, Criminal Term, Brooklyn, Kings County. Upon her graduation from college, Justice DiMango was an elementary school teacher in the New York City Public Schools, focusing on special education of children with emotional and cognitive needs. During her teaching years and before law school, she received her Master's Degree. In addition to her Juris Doctorate, Justice DiMango holds a Master's Degree from Columbia University in Developmental Psychology and a Bachelor's Degree cum laude from Brooklyn College in both Psychology and Education.  Thereafter, she went on to receive her law degree from St. John's University where she graduated in the top of her class, and received awards and scholarships in recognition for her other academic achievements. In 2012, she received the Alumna of the Year Award from Brooklyn College and was also the recipient of the prestigious Rapallo Award. In 2013, she was the recipient of the Distinguished Judiciary Award from the Catholic Lawyers Guild and was named "Woman of the Year" by the New York State Supreme Court Officers Association. In 2014, she was named "Woman of the Year" by The New York State Court Officers Association. Additionally, she served as Master of Ceremonies for the NY State Broadcasters Association Awards. In 2015, Justice DiMango was the Grand Marshal of the Brooklyn Columbus Day Parade. She was also recognized as being the "Woman Of The Year" for the Home Reporter and Brooklyn Spectator's "Kings of Kings" event. Justice DiMango was also the honored celebrity speaker at The Greater New York Dental Association National Convention.  In 2016, she was named "Woman of The Year" by the Italian Charities of America. In 2019, Justice DiMango was selected to be the keynote speaker by the Brooklyn Daily Eagle for its "Champions of Justice" event honoring outstanding women in the court system. Justice DiMango has appeared on numerous television programs, including "The View," "Wendy Williams," "Rachael Ray" and "Steve Harvey" and can be heard on many talk radio shows and podcasts. She has also been featured giving legal insight on stories on "Entertainment Tonight," Fox News, "VH1," "Banfield" and "Inside Edition" among others. Upon her graduation from law school, she served five-and-a-half years as an Assistant District Attorney in the Kings County District Attorney's Office. During her tenure there, she was given the extra responsibility of being cross-designated as a Special Assistant United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York. She later worked as a law clerk in both Kings and Queens Counties to Supreme Court Justices Steven Fisher, Reinaldo Rivera and Luigi Marano. During this time, Justice DiMango volunteered as a Small Claims Court Arbitrator. Justice DiMango returned to her passion for education and became an Adjunct Associate Professor of Criminal Law, Criminal Procedure, Legal Research and Writing and Forensic Psychology at St. John's University for approximately 10 years. Thereafter, she was an Adjunct Associate Professor at New York City Technical College teaching Criminal Law and Procedure.

As the third of eight children in an Irish Catholic family, future Deputy Chief Administrative Judge James P. Murphy picked up a lot of skills early on that would come in handy when he undertook the daunting task of overseeing day-to-day trial court operations in 57 of New York's 62 counties and put him in charge of 640 judges and 6,000 non-judicial employees: teamwork, collaboration, humility, group dynamics and a keen understanding that the interests of the clan as a whole outweigh those of any individual. Judge Murphy, who was appointed last year as the Deputy Chief Administrative Judge for the Courts Outside New York City, discusses his background and management approach in a new Amici podcast. Transcript: https://ww2.nycourts.gov/sites/default/files/document/files/2024-02/Judge%20Murphy.pdf

Judge Mike Engelhart spent his formative years in New Jersey and earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan and his law degree from the University of Houston. He earned board certification as a trial lawyer, was elected to a District court bench in 2008, 2012, 2016, and 2020, and served as an Administrative Judge for two terms. Mike and his wife Eva have two sons and live in Houston, Texas.

After a long and distinguished career serving our country, DOD Administrative Judge Michael (Mike) Leonard recently retired.  Mike served for the last twenty years as an Administrative Judge with the Department of Defense (DOD)  Defense Office of Hearings and Appeals (DOHA) where he heard and decided hundreds of security clearance cases over his tenure.  On one hand, I am glad that he retired so that I could do this podcast with him. On the other hand, security clearance applicants who have to go to a hearing regarding their clearance have lost a wise, tempered, smart and reflective judge to possibly hear their administrative case.  Of course, there are still  many fair and  highly respected judges at DOD DOHA, but the loss of Mike will definitely be felt.  I was glad to learn his history on this episode of the podcast to include his U.S Army JAG Corps experience and DOHA Department Counsel work before he became a DOHA judge.  I hope you enjoy hearing his professional story followed by his bold retirement move to Germany!

Individuals with intellectual and/or developmental disabilities (I/DD) and their families often find themselves dealing with complexity and even intentional obfuscation as they navigate the path of Medicaid eligibility and benefits That is why we find it exhilarating when along that path we find individuals with expertise and empathy. I have discovered both those qualities in Marianne Huff. Although Marianne's highest level of expertise is in the mental health arena...the rules governing Medicaid are, with just a few exceptions, the same we deal with in the I/DD world. I have known Marianne for several years. About 5 years ago she provided invaluable information when we found ourselves in a benefit eligibility dispute with our local Community Mental Health organization and were anxiously facing an appeal before an Administrative Judge. Marianne's advice and guidance resulted in a positive outcome for our son Lliam. I believe you will find this episode enlightening and come to realize we also have allies and advocates within the community of professionals working MHAM.

September 20th Court Leader's Advantage Podcast Episode Obtaining customer feedback, obtaining usable feedback, obtaining enough of it to be able to rationally modify court programs, all of these are major hurdles. And yet getting good customer feedback is so important. It is important to complete the loop: to plan, to act, to check results, and then to refine. And this effort has been made even more complicated by COVID. LaGratta Consulting, with the backing of the State Justice Institute, has developed the Court Voices Project piloting 12 courts from around the country. These courts are collecting real-time, feedback from staff and court users about their pandemic experiences and their ideas. Some of the questions the Court Voices Project is trying to answer include, what percentage of court users prefer virtual hearings and why; have court users found new communication channels like phone banks and online chat features to be more convenient and more accessible; and what ideas do line-staff have for improving court practices? This month we're looking at court customers and how we collect feedback from them. Some topics we will explore include: · How do we obtain more and better customer feedback? · Why should court leaders focus on better ways to obtain feedback? · What have courts been able to do with more enhanced feedback? and · What advice do these panelists have for the rest of us? Today's Panel The Honorable Clemens Landau, Judge with the Justice Court in Salt Lake City, Utah. Judge Landau was appointed to the Salt Lake City Justice Court in 2017.

Christos Lagos has been the co-managing partner of Lagos & Priovolos PLLC since 2014 when he and John Priovolos formed the firm. Christos, who has over 23 years of legal experience, heads the firm's civil litigation division. His primary focus is on claims that involve substantial losses arising out of construction negligence, unsafe premises, automobile and trucking accidents, medical malpractice, wrongful death, negligence, defective products, insurance claims, and other civil disputes.  Christos is a seasoned and accomplished trial lawyer with an exceptional track record of success handling high-profile litigation. His experience as lead counsel in numerous jury trials has proven invaluable in the guidance and expertise he offers his clients. He has obtained several multi-million dollar settlements, judgments, and jury verdicts and is a standing member of both the Million Dollar Advocates Forum and the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum. In total, Christos has helped recover over $150 Million for those whose lives have been harmed by the wrongdoing of others.  Over the last 20 years, Christos has successfully litigated against insurance companies, construction and engineering firms, major consumer product and automobile manufacturers, property owners, health care providers, trucking and transportation companies, and other entities and corporations. Christos holds a Certificate in Mass-Tort Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) from the Bolch Judicial Institute at Duke Law School. Throughout his career, Christos has handled several notable landmark cases. Notably, Christos filed the first wrongful death lawsuit for the tragic bridge collapse that occurred at Florida International University. Twenty personal injury and wrongful death cases were consolidated against twenty-eight defendants involving over 100 lawyers.  Christos served as Liaison Counsel and was a lead attorney in this consolidated action. On behalf of all plaintiffs' counsel, Christos conducted numerous presentations and led global settlement negotiations resulting in the creation of a trust for the benefit of the bridge collapse victims in the amount of $102.75 Million from twenty-five defendants.  Judge Jennifer D.

She was also known for her efficiency in closing a vast numbers of cases in a fair and timely fashion. Her judicial acumens came to the attention of the Chief Judge of the State of New York and he selected her to spearhead his initiative to reduce the backlog of felony matters in the Bronx. Hence, Justice Di Mango was named Supervising Justice of the Bronx Felony Project from January 2013-Januarary 2014. In the course of her judicial career she also gained public recognition for handling high-profile trials, particularly those involving murders of young children, other crimes against children and hate crime murders. Ultimately, these assignments resulted in Justice DiMango’s appointment as the Administrative Judge of the New York State Supreme Court Criminal Term in Brooklyn, Kings County. After a special assignment in the Bronx, she was brought back to Brooklyn where she was elevated to the position of Administrative Judge for Criminal Matters Kings County Supreme Court. Justice DiMango received her law degree from St. John’s University where she graduated in the top 10 percent of her class, and received awards and scholarships in recognition for her other academic achievements.

We were joined by the Hon. David M. Sheridan, Administrative Judge for the Hartford Judicial District. The Judge led us through the intricacies of becoming a Superior Court Judge in Connecticut, getting re-appointed by the State Legislature, and demonstrated why Nutmeggers are fortunate to have such a high-quality Judiciary—especially compared to states where Judges are elected and must run for re-election. He also provided excellent general advice for parties in court – and their attorneys. Listener calls included issues about mediation, setting aside Jury verdicts, Jury nullification, etc

As the City of St Louis' website explains, "Judge Edwards earned an undergraduate degree in 1978 and a law degree in 1982 from St. Louis University. He rose through private and public legal positions to the legal staff of Southwestern Bell Telephone Company in 1990. From there he was appointed to the St. Louis Circuit Court. He was the Administrative Judge of the Family Court and Chief Juvenile Court Judge from 2007 to 2012." Edwards was appointed as Public Safety Director by Mayor Krewson in the fall of 2017. Here's a glance at how the conversation went: Chapter 1. "It's what you do for others that matters most." How Edwards came to be a judge appointed to the distinguished role of Public Safety Director. (0:00-8:15) Chapter 2.  Judge Edwards says he has "High expectations... for all of the 3600 people that work for [him]..." and they're not the only ones; Judge Edwards has earned respect from police and "crooks" alike. (8:15-11:30) Chapter 3. "Our City is basically safe." While this may be the case, Judge Edwards understands that we "have to be smarter about how we utilize our [police] officers," if we want citizens to feel safe. (11:30-19:15) Chapter 4. But 205 murders last year! The public must be a part of public safety and this will require courage from citizens. (19:15-24:15) Chapter 5.  Edwards envisions "A community where your grandkids can walk to the corner store without the fear of being hurt." When it comes to better crime fighting, Edwards says, "It is my job to root out the bad police officers, but I also need help from the police officers on the inside." Similarly, he needs the support of the community to keep criminals off the streets. (24:15-29:00) Chapter 6. "We're not going to incarcerate our way out of crime" in our communities. Plus a surprising reality-check looking at white-on-white vs black-on-black crimes. (29:00-34:30) Chapter 7. Dating back to the Dred Scott trial held here, the City of St Louis has been on the cutting edge of changing America and Edwards sees us as continuing to lead when it come to police relations as well. At the end of the day, "Reducing Crime is [Edwards'] number one goal..." and it's what he knows best. (34:30-41:20) You can also catch guest host Hank Thompson on the air Sunday nights at 6pm on 88.7 WSIE. Andy Heaslet is the show's engineer. *Wishing you well, DJ Wilson!*

Let’s talk Soccer or should we say football?

Judge Myers currently serves in the Complex Civil Litigation division and as Administrative Judge for the Appellate division. Let us know what you think about the podcast.
