Complaints were filed with the U.S. Attorneys' office dealing with corruption in New York State government, with a request to investigate and prosecute judges of the NYS Appellate Division 3rd Department Leslie Stein, Karen Peters and NYS Governor Andrew Cuomo for theft of honest services of a judge - for nomination of Judge Leslie Stein to the Court of Appeals on October 17, 2014 while she was a presiding appellate judge on a DEC case, while she was not removed from the panel by Chief Judge Karen Peters and did not step down voluntarily, but instead ruled for the DEC 6 days after the nomination.
Complaints were also filed with the New York State Judicial Conduct Commission.
I am wondering whether any discipline or prosecution will follow.
