NEW YORK CITY CRIMINAL COURT: DRUG COURT INITIATIVE

Criminal Court Judges


Overview

The Treatment Court Judge offers a balance between responsibility and successful treatment through weekly or monthly court appearances. These constant status court appearances allow the Treatment Court Judge to give appropriate rewards and sanctions for compliant and non-compliant behavior. The Treatment Court judge is a pivotal team member in the treatment process, actively using the Court’s authority to demonstrate interest in the defendant’s welfare and to emphasize the serious nature of the defendant’s behavior.
