Christopher Gibson, Director, Division of E-Filing, NYS Office of Court Administration, shared the following request for comments:
In preparation of the Office of Court Administration’s annual report on e-filing, to be submitted to the Chief Judge, the Governor, and the Legislature, we seek comments from the public addressing users’ experience with NYSCEF. Observations/recommendations are welcome from attorneys, litigants, and other interested parties.
To allow sufficient time for report preparation, please submit any comments by February 13, 2026.
We would like to extend a special thank you to Vishal Chander for providing remote immigration assistance, and to everyone who stayed past 2:30 p.m. to ensure all clients were seen. We are especially grateful to Beatrice Leong, who traveled from Queens in a foot brace and stayed past 3:30 p.m. to assist our final client. Your dedication, including staying later than necessary to ensure no client was turned away, is truly admirable!
In addition to answering legal questions, these clinics aim to train law students and young attorneys on how to communicate complex legal concepts in layman’s terms. We appreciate you taking the time to listen to our clients’ stories and providing them with a space to be heard.
Here’s one of the clients’ comments –”Gary is the best lawyer…. Thanks very much.”
