PROMOTING DIVERSITY IN THE COURTS: HON. JEFFREY K. OING
For this Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month Diversity Dialogue, we are honored to have an opportunity to chat with the Hon. Jeffrey K. Oing, an Associate Justice of the Appellate Division, First Department, in Manhattan.
Justice Oing is a native of Hong Kong whose parents brought him to the United States at the age of four and raised him in East Harlem.
As a student at Columbia in the 1980s, Justice Oing realized he had the “gift of gab” we'll get into that laterand decided to pursue a career in law rather than medicine. That led him to New York University School of Law. He was admitted in 1990 and has spent nearly his entire career in the courts, starting as a court system attorney in 1993 and serving as a judge in three different courts.
A year and a half ago, he was on the short list of candidates for Chief Judge.
