Does it smell like rotten fish in the 3rd Department?

 

Back in 2015 I published a series of articles about an individual who was fraudulently elected as a Supreme Court Justice of Albany County Supreme Court, Christina Ryba (interesting coincidence, the name “Ryba” means “Fish” in Russian, so that is a rotten fish, indeed).

You can read the essence of the rotten-fish’s rotten fishness in the elections in my blogs dated:

November 4, 2015, here;

November 12, 2015, here;

Another November 12, 2015 article, here, titled “GOP wants an ethical probe of Christine Ryba who was elected as judge one day after she was terminated from an appellate court for unethical behavior” – yet, who is GOP in “democratic” New York and what “ethical probe” may be had against a BLACK WOMAN and a “FIRST BLACK FEMALE SUPREME COURT JUSTICE”? And so young?  And so pretty?  Oh, no.  Go away, GOP, with your ethics probes into rotten fishes, let them rot happily ever after, at NYS taxpayers’ bottomless expense.

(The next day, quite coincidentally, my law license was pulled 😊, and remains pulled – for how may a LICENSED attorney complain about various judges’ rotten fishness – OPENLY?)

I did not stop writing about the rotten fishness of the rotten fish, and published the next article about her the next day – as already an unlicensed attorney 😊:

November 14, 2015, here, article titled “Michael Coccoma's stop-gap job offer to Christine Ryba: for a senior high-ranking male judge, ethical misconduct of a pretty-face female attorney who has ties to the government is grounds for promotion. Again”

January 2, 2016, here, article titled “A "historic" fraudulent election of a black woman to the New York Supreme Court bench is cheered on by those who should have reported and disbarred her”.

I was not the only one who raised the issue of the fraudulent election – but apparently, the her gender and the blackness of her skin – and the prettiness of her face meant more than her obvious fraud upon voters.

And she survived in her judgeship.

And she thrived.

 

And – hallelujah – she made a thunderous comeback to the very 3^rd Department from which she was fired (but not disbarred), allowing her career to proceed.

The 3^rd Department recently announced the next step in the rotten fish’s career – the appointment to the Appellate Division 3^rd Department, you can read the public announcement by the 3^rd Department of that appointment here.

The is Honorable know.  The Honorable rotten fish.

The announcement is an copy of the announcement of New York State Governor Hochul made on January 15, 2026, available here.

In the announcement, you can trace the “successful” career of the rotten fish, including the litany of where she is a “member” and where she “served”.

Judging by how exactly she got elected and who harbored her after that, which I described in my contemporaneous blogs referenced above, the “service” could be as prominent as her fraudulent election and safe-harbor trick with then-Chief Administrative Judge for upstate New York Michael V. Coccoma, the connoisseur of pretty women who quite coincidentally happened to be rotten judges.

Unfortunately, my alma mater, the Albany Law School, fell for the brown-nosing temptation, putting the rotten fish on its Board of Trustees.

Consider that the rotten fish, as the announcement of the 3^rd Department claims, “serves” on the Permanent Commission for Access to Justice, people! 

And, of course, first and foremost what was prominently mentioned in the announcement of the 3^rd Department, the rotten fish was she is “the first Black person ever elected to the Supreme Court in the Third Department and will be the first Black justice elected from the Third Department to serve on the Appellate Division”.

That must mean a whole lot to attorneys whose law licenses the rotten fish will be now regulating, and to litigants whose liberty and property issues the rotten fish will be now adjudicating, guided by her own, already demonstrated to the public at the point of her first election – rotten fraudulent principles.

I get a kicker out of identity politics of judicial appointments.

The same 3^rd Department is headed – and I openly wrote about it before – by the first LGBTXYZ@#$^ justice “serving” as the Chief Judge of an Appellate Division, Elizabeth Garry.  Whose only qualifications was who she chooses to sleep with.

Welcome to the woke world of the judiciary – ever alive.

And prepare - now the rotten fish will not only decide your fate, but will decide the fate of your attorney and lifeline to court relief - and teach that attorney ETHICS, CARL.  Figure.
