2015 Rapallo Award Luncheon Columbian Lawyers Association First Judicial Department Fiftieth Annual Rapallo Award Luncheon HONORABLE JOHN A. BARONE Justice of the Supreme Court State of New York Twelfth Judicial District April 18, 2015 The Waldorf Astoria CHARLES A. RAPALLO Charles A. Rapallo, whose father, Antonio Rapallo, was an attorney, educator, and linguist, was the first jurist of Italian American descent elected to the Court of Appeals of the State of New York. He was among the first seven judges to serve on the Court when the new state Constitution was adopted in 1869 after the Constitutional Conventions of 1867 and 1868. Sworn in July 4th, 1870 at 46 years of age, he served as an Associate Judge until his death on December 28, 1887. The first volumes of New York Reports, published during Judge Rapallo’s tenure on the Court of Appeals, contain many of Judge Rapallo’s opinions embracing a wide range of subjects and displaying the resources of a powerful mind informed by reading and reflection. In the combination of qualities which qualify an individual for the Court of Appeals, Judge Rapallo had few, if any, superiors. He possessed intellectual gifts of a high order, integrity of purpose, a calm and dispassionate temper, great good sense, a solid judgement, and these, united with learning and a power of philosophical analysis, constitute him one of the outstanding judges to have served on the Court of Appeals. Judge Rapallo was one of the dedicated lawyers and jurists responsible for the formation of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York; he was elected a member of its first executive committee. Judge Rapallo’s distinguished and outstanding judicial career, his great contributions to the legal profession, as well as his exemplary service as the first American of Italian origin to sit on the Court of Appeals, is the inspiration for which the Columbian Lawyers Association has established the CHARLES A. RAPALLO AWARD. Previous Recipients of the Rapallo Award 1966 S. SAMUEL DiFALCO 1992 JOSEPH E. CERBONE Surrogate, New York County Justice, Supreme Court 1967 LOUIS J.

Savva, President Presidents Message, On behalf of the Columbian Lawyers Association, First Judicial Department, I am proud to welcome you to the 50th Annual Rapallo Award Luncheon in the Waldorf Astoria's historic Grand Ballroom. As Italians, we learn from an early age that tradition, heritage and history are important aspects of our culture. Celebrating milestones and achievements with close friends and family is always a joyous occasion, which is why we are so very pleased to have you here with us this afternoon. On June 11, 1966, the first Charles A. Rapallo award was presented in this same room to The Honorable S. Samuel Di Falco, who was at the time, the Surrogate for New York County. Although Judge Di Falco is no longer with us, we are fortunate to have with us today, the original organizer of this event, Past President Philip A. Greco. The Association chose to use Charles A. Rapallo as the namesake of a special annual award, because he was a jurist of Italian heritage whose life achievements and commitment to public service are unparalleled. As the first Italian-American to serve on the New York Court of Appeals, Judge Rapallo's career was a model of outstanding jurisprudence. Born on September 15, 1823, to an Italian immigrant father, Judge Rapallo's path to the highest Court in our State was far from simple. He was educated exclusively at home by his father, Anthony, a well-accomplished New York lawyer, who was fluent in English, Italian, French and Spanish. After a seven-year apprenticeship with his father, Judge Rapallo was admitted to the New York Bar at just 21 years of age. Thereafter, he enjoyed a successful career in private practice as a highly sought-after civil and appellate attorney with an impressive client list which included Mutual Life Insurance and the Erie Railroad Company. When not practicing law, he volunteered his time with professional associations and was a founding member of the Association of the Bar of the City of New York. In 1870, although Charles Rapallo never actively engaged in politics or held public office, he was nominated and ultimately elected to a fourteen-year term on the New York Court of Appeals. It is reported that his election was based almost exclusively upon his reputation among the bench and bar as one of the most competent lawyers in the State of New York. We have gathered at the Waldorf for the past five decades

  • Surrogate Champions for the Poor
    6 Surrogate Champions for the Poor The poor, like all constituent groups, need strong advocates in Congress. They need legislators who will devote their time to issues related to poverty, and who will advance legislation to address poverty-relevant issues. Without these legislative champions, it is unlikely that the interests of the poor will be raised on Capitol Hill. Without this initial recognition, it is unlikely that the House will pursue policies intended to help the poor. As Williams writes, “before government can act in a manner that is responsive to the interest of individual citizens, those interest must be articulated by a representative in a decision-making body such as a legislature” (1998, 24). Therefore, this chapter identifies and discusses these “champions for the poor.” The previous three chapters reveal that some poverty-related legisla- tion is introduced in the House, and that certain legislators are more likely to offer such legislation. However, these chapters also make clear that the representation of the poor in Congress is not straightforward. To the extent that it occurs, it does not follow the classical paths of collective or dyadic representation. Put differently, the champions of the poor are not the usual suspects. In this chapter, I examine an alternate pathway of representation – surrogate representation – wherein a legislator represents constituents beyond his own district. I establish the role surrogate representatives play in giving the poor a political voice, and show that surrogate representation is central to how the poor are represented in Congress. This focus on surrogate champions shifts attention to the activity of legislators throughout their careers in the House, rather than at one moment in time.
