From the NYS Magistrates Association:
Town of Darien Judge Gary A. Graber attended the 110th annual Conference and certified Advanced Training Program of the New York State Magistrates Association in Lake Placid Sept. 15-18.
There were many presentations made over the four-day event, including one by Darien's Judge Graber.
More than 225 judges statewide participated. The event combines the association's annual meeting and conference with advanced training courses required for all towns and villages in the Unified Court System.
The purpose of the association is the maintenance and support of the local judiciary through education and coordination with NYS agencies regarding laws and matters affecting local courts -- "The Courts Closest to the People."
It also works closely with the Office of Court Administration to assure training that enhances the professional development of the judges and ensure it is relevant to the practical situations encountered in local courts.
