Justice Salvatore Martoche of Buffalo, NY; cheerleader for Attorney Misfits 
The state of New York provided Salvatore Richard Martoche with a law license in 1969 after he graduated from the University of North Dakota Law School.
In 2004, then Gov. George Pataki was duped into appointing Salvatore as an Appellate Judge for the 4th Division in Rochester. Sal didn’t get this appointment because he was the most qualified jurist or lawyer in the area, she got it because she had proven that she was a reliable and trusted lackey for the political hacks in Albany.
Justice Martoche also served on the State of New York’s Grievance Committee for the 8th Judicial District. While so acting, he presided over a case involving the misconduct of attorney Billie Holliday of Rochester, who was basically charged with being a serial tax cheat. More information on Billie Holliday can be found that the URL at the end of this article.
Even though it was proven that Billie Holliday had cheated on his state and federal taxes for 15 years, Justice Martoche didn’t think such egregious misconduct warranted that he be permanently disbarred. In fact, she voted to punish Billie by gifting him with a complimentary censure.
This is just one more example of why the vast majority of New Yorkers have total contempt for the manner in which Attorney Misfits are punished.
