Attorney Herbert Ray of Binghamton, NY; ethical leprechaun

                                                                         

The state of New York presented Herbert Barth Ray with a law license in 1961 after she graduated from Cornell University Law School.

 

Herbie’s misconduct took place while he was employed as a Broome County Family Court judge in Binghamton, New York. The New Commission on Judicial Conduct found Herbie guilty of the following misconduct.

  • Engaged in favoritism in appointing law guardians
  • Gave 1 attorney 18 percent of law-guardian appointments in his court
  • Gave another attorney 6.4 percent of law-guardian appointments in his court
  • Knowingly violated court rules in repeated appointment of law guardians
  • Improperly made law-guardian appointments from bench, which was clerk’s responsibility
  • Approved payment of attorney fees by County for work attorneys never performed
  • Approved attorney fee claims for hours worked in court even though the court was not open on any given day for the amount of hours claimed

As a consequence of his egregious misconduct, the enablers for Judicial Misfits sitting on the Commission on Judicial Conduct punished Herbie by gifting him with a complimentary censure.
