Post Graduate Volunteer The candidate will work on interesting cases with an unusually high degree of responsibility and independence. Attorneys joining the Administrative Law and Regulatory Litigation Division have their own caseloads consisting of challenges to City administrative agency determinations as well as the laws and regulations underlying those determinations. These cases concern the broad spectrum of the City's regulatory activities, including licensing, land use, regulation of street and park activities, health, housing, consumer protection, and code compliance. Attorneys also defend challenges to determinations made the City's pension boards. Many of the cases are brought as State court Article 78 proceedings while others are state or federal actions. In all instances, working under the supervision of a senior member of the division, the assigned attorneys are responsible for handling their cases from beginning to end. A typical case requires that an attorney prepare responsive pleadings and affidavits after reviewing agency records and consulting with agency representatives, prepare memoranda of law, conduct necessary discovery and make court appearances to argue motions. New attorneys in the Division also prosecute violations and misdemeanors in the New York City Criminal Court based upon violations of various local laws enforced by the City.
