  • By Electronic Mail July 21, 2020 Chief Judge Janet Difiore New York State Court of Appeals 20 Eagle Street Albany, New York 1220
    By electronic mail July 21, 2020 Chief Judge Janet DiFiore New York State Court of Appeals 20 Eagle Street Albany, New York 12207 Honorable Carl E. Heastie Speaker, New York State Assembly Legislative Office Building, Room 932 Albany, NY 12248 Honorable Andrea Stewart-Cousins Temporary President and Majority Leader, New York State Senate Legislative Office Building, Room 310 Albany, NY 12247 Dear Chief Judge DiFiore, Speaker Heastie, and Temporary President and Majority Leader Stewart-Cousins: We are over 300 full-time faculty teaching across all disciplines at New York State’s fifteen law schools, and we are writing in support of New York Senate Bill S8682A/A10794 to institute a one-time emergency “diploma privilege” to practice in New York for any person who is otherwise qualified for admission, provided that they demonstrate compliance with section 520.9 of the Rules of the Court of Appeals.1 We also ask the New York Court of Appeals to exercise its authority to grant diploma privilege pursuant to N.Y. Judiciary Law § 53. We commend the Court of Appeals for responding to this unprecedented crisis by canceling the in-person bar exam scheduled for September. But because the Court has not yet decided what will replace the canceled exam, 2020 law school graduates and others who planned to sit for the September bar are now in an extremely difficult position. Our support for diploma privilege is driven by many considerations. First, given the current COVID- 19 global pandemic, authorizing a diploma privilege is the most prudent and equitable option for our state.
