Justice Maria G. Rosa is seeking another term on New York’s Supreme Court in the Ninth Judicial District in the Nov. 3 election.
The state’s amended certification lists Rosa on the Democratic and Working Families lines. Five candidates are competing for three seats; voters may choose up to three.
The district includes Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland and Westchester counties. Each candidate is counted once even when listed on more than one party line.
Judicial and legal experience
Rosa’s campaign biography says she began serving as a Supreme Court justice in 2013. Her earlier work included service as a principal court attorney from 1995 to 2012 and private legal practice.
Her campaign lists a bachelor’s degree from the University at Albany in 1984 and a law degree from Albany Law School in 1987.
The biography also describes teaching and legal-education work, including lectures at Marist College and for the New York State Bar Association. It lists prior service as president of the Dutchess County Bar Association.
