Richard Farina
Candidate for the
Orange County Court

• I have over 35 years of active experience in New York’s Court System. I’ve been a law secretary/court attorney in the County and Supreme Courts and the Appellate Division. I am an elected judge in Warwick and have been an assigned City Court Judge in Middletown, Newburgh, Yonkers, and White Plains. I’ve been a teacher of Town and Village Justices in Orange County for more than 25 years. My knowledge and experience with criminal law, and in particular, with County Court practice, and my excellent reputation among my colleagues make me uniquely suited to be Orange’s next County Court Judge.
