The nominees are Appellate Division, First Department, Justices Paul Feinman, Judith Gische, Rosalyn Richter and Troy Karen Webber; Southern District Bankruptcy Judge Mary Kay Vyskocil; Appellate Division, Fourth Department, Presiding Justice Gerald Whalen; and Eric Corngold, a partner at Friedman Kaplan Seiler & Adelman.
