"One should not just ask `what does the case hold'?, but also what is good, what is just and what is kind? Sylvia asked and answered those questions and for that we are grateful."
Deborah Poritz, Chief Justice (Ret.), Supreme Court of New Jersey.
The 2010 Weintraub Lecture at Rutgers-Newark Law School, my alma mater, was delivered as a duet by two of the women who were among the very first to lead the New Jersey judiciary - Virginia Long, Associate Justice, and Deborah Poritz, retired Chief Justice. It was a `sisterhood is powerful' event as the two women played tribute to the late Sylvia Pressler, liberal lioness of the Appellate Division of the Superior Court, maven of the Civil Practice Rules Committee and stalwart of thirty years on the bench.
The link to the video of this delightful and moving tribute is HERE.
