1. Please make a statement addressing what makes you the best candidate for this office.

Answer from Timothy J. "Tim" Walker:

Supreme Court is New York's highest trial court. Prior to taking the bench earlier this year, I had almost 2 decades' experience as a trial attorney. I handled just about every type of case that a Supreme Court Judge would preside over. Independence and integrety are what I value the most in this position. It has been an honor to serve as your Supreme Court Judge, and I look forward to serving the next 14 years.
