We begin by extending our congratulations to Judge Rowan Wilson on his confirmation as Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals and to Caitlin Halligan on her confirmation as Associate Judge to fill the vacancy left by Judge Wilson’s accession to Chief Judge. The 2022 annual report has a foreword by Judge Anthony Cannataro, who temporarily led the court since Sept. 1, 2022, when former Chief Judge Janet DiFiore resigned. Judge Cannataro’s foreword notes the retirement last April of John P. Asiello, Chief Clerk and Legal Counsel, after 40 years of “quiet brilliance” during his service at the court, and the succession of Lisa A. LeCours, who assumes the position after “more than 22 years of invaluable experience in Chambers and in the Consultation Clerk’s Office.”

Like those of her predecessors, LeCour’s report is full of information that will be of interest not only to appellate practitioners and dedicated court watchers, but to anyone seeking to learn about the role and operation of our state’s highest tribunal at a time when the governor’s appointment of a new Chief Judge and an Associate Judge has been a much-publicized matter of public interest and debate. The report, written in an easy-to-read narrative style, describes the work of the court and includes a summary of significant 2022 decisions, reflecting the range of constitutional, statutory, regulatory and common law issues decided by the court each year, and a wealth of statistical information presented in appendices that present a detailed analysis of all aspects of the court’s work during 2022 and the prior four years.
