Leonard B. Austin, an associate justice of the Appellate Division, Second Department, writes: I read with interest the article by Justice David Saxe of the First Department. Were it a decision, I would respectfully concur in part and dissent in part. Where we agree is that there is a need to improve the understanding of complex commercial issues which confront us, but the creation of a specialized panel would beget entreaties for appellate panels focusing on medical malpractice, negligence and criminal issues, etc. No, thank you!
