Rev. 191 (2003)Available at: http://digitalcommons.pace.edu/plr/vol24/iss1/4Opening RemarksThe Honorable Robert G.M. Keating*Thank you very much. Your gracious introduction is muchlonger than my opening remarks. It is my privilege to welcomeyou to the New York State Judicial Institute. This is the firstevent we have co-hosted with an outside organization, one otherthan the New York State Unified Court System. We are partic-ularly proud and pleased to have this group here for a numberof reasons. From the Chief Judge on down through the system,we think that the issue of domestic violence is really a transcen-dent one. One that is as important as it is difficult. We thinkthe focus on these issues by this particular think tank is one ofgreat significance to us as managers and administrators of thejudicial system. It is our hope that the lessons that you learnhere will be ones that Chief Judge Kaye and others who havebeen in this fight for so long, will be able to utilize.Our link with the Women's Justice Center and Pace LawSchool is a connection and a partnership, which, quite frankly,we're very proud of. This institute will do other things than justeducate judges and one of its goals is to become a nationalcenter for the kind of quality research programs that Pace LawSchool and the Women's Justice Center have made famous.This is, as you can see, a very new building. It is not finishedyet and we would appreciate your ideas for improving it. Anysuggestions you may have for future programs will also be ap-preciated. I want to give you my deep thanks for coming here,and my sincere gratitude for what you are doing. The best ofluck and I look forward to seeing you again soon.* The Honorable Robert G. M. Keating is Dean of the New York State JudicialInstitute as well as a distinguished scholar in residence and Adjunct Professor forthe Judicial Extern Honors Program at Pace Law School.1
