DescriptionJudge Could Be Suspended on the Day She Is Sworn In

By JOHN ELIGON
Published: December 11, 2008

The New York Court of Appeals notified Judge-elect Nora S. Anderson on Thursday that it may consider suspending her until criminal charges against her are decided. The court also offered her an opportunity to oppose suspension.

A day earlier, Ms. Anderson, who was elected last month to the Manhattan Surrogate’s Court, was indicted on charges that she had concealed the source of $250,000 worth of contributions to her campaign. Manhattan prosecutors also charged Seth Rubenstein — the head of the Brooklyn law firm where Ms. Anderson works, and her campaign adviser — who they say funneled the money to Ms. Anderson’s campaign account.
