Karen K. Peters, Presiding Justice of the Appellate Division, Third Department, writes: As both the first woman to be elected to the Supreme Court in the Third Department and the first to be appointed Presiding Justice of the Third Department, I am proud to be part of the shift towards greater diversity in New York's courts. Still, we have a long way to go before the judiciary reflects the population it serves.
