2003 Hugh R. Jones Memorial Lecture
On March 31, 2003, The Fund for Modern Courts and Albany Law School
hosted the second annual Judge Hugh R. Jones Memorial Lecture at
Albany Law School. Judith S. Kaye, Chief Judge of the New
York Court of Appeals, introduced this year's speaker, Howard A.
Levine, Associate Judge (ret.) of the New York Court of Appeals.
Judge Levine's lecture, 'The Common-law Tradition and its Critics:
A Jonesian Response", argued for an evolutionary versus a revolutionary
approach to jurisprudence. Well over 100 people, including: Judge
Jones's son, Thomas Jones; Court of Appeals Judges Carmen Beauchamp
Ciparick, Susan Phillips Read, Albert M. Rosenblatt, George Bundy
Smith, Richard C. Wesley; and New York State Bar Association President
Lorraine Power Tharp, gathered in the Dean Alexander Moot Courtroom
to listen to Judge Levine's speech.
