Settment Judge

Settlement Program Overview The Supreme Court’s Settlement Program is an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) program that was started in 1997. Since its inception, 53% of the cases assigned to the program have settled. The program is administered under the provisions of Nevada Rule of Appellate Procedure 16 ( NRAP 16 ). Mediation The ADR method of the program is MEDIATION. Mediation is a process in which an impartial third party, a Settlement Judge, assists the parties in reaching a mutually acceptable solution to their dispute. The settlement judge doesn’t decide the outcome of the case, but rather assists the parties in communicating their positions and interests in order to promote understanding, reconciliation, and a mutually acceptable solution to the dispute. In doing so, the settlement judge may ask questions, help define issues, and assist in the generation and evaluation of settlement proposals. Mediation provides the parties with an opportunity to resolve their case themselves. Settlement Judges Settlement Judges (biographies) are appointed by the Supreme Court based on an evaluation of the applicant’s education, training and experience. Settlement judges are required to have a high degree of training and experience in mediation skills. Most settlement judges also have significant legal experience as practicing attorneys, including specialized experience in the unique issues that arise in appellate work. All settlement judges’ professional biographies are available on this web site.

M.A. (1982) | Public Policy Program

The M.A. in Public Policy Program continued its expansion in 2005 and 2006. Last June, thirty students received their Masters degrees, making the 2005 class the largest in the programâs six-year history. This June thirty-three students received their Masterâs degrees, and we expect at least forty students to be enrolled in full-time study in September. The graduating students are utilizing their degrees to pursue diverse objectives. One former student is Empire Zone Coordinator for the Town of Brookhaven; in that position he is responsible for attracting business to the Townâs 1280 acres of zoned land and for administering a Workforce Development Program for economically depressed areas. Another former student performed an internship in the office of a state legislator, and then was hired to work in that office full-time. Among the current students, one works full-time as a Public Affairs Representative in the Media & Communications Office of Brookhaven National Laboratory, while another is Director of the Nassau County Office of Emergency Management & Homeland Security. Masterâs students are required to contribute to the community in the form of 200-hour internships, typically in government offices and non-profit organizations. Some examples of internships students performed this year are: Public Policy Program Highlights Stony Brook University Dr. Scott Basinger, M.A. Program Director United States Congress New York State Assembly and New York State Senate Central Pine Barrens Joint Planning and Policy Commission Peconic Estuary Program (in Suffolk County Department of Health Services â Office of Ecology) Long Island Regional Planning Board New York City Housing Authority New York City Public Advocate Office These internships provide students a valuable opportunity to put classroom lessons to work, and create momentum in their pursuit of civic service.
