Interjection Leads To Resignation

The New York Commission on Judicial Conduct accepted the resignation of a judge who stipulated to misconduct

Judge Crofoot was apprised by the Commission in September 2018 that it was investigating a complaint that she improperly interjected herself in a pending custody proceeding by criticizing one of the parties in an email to the court, identifying herself as a judge and lending the prestige of judicial office to advance a private interest.

 She was a justice of the Barrington Town Court. (Mike Frisch)
