Sam D. Walker
Candidate for the
Supreme Court
9th Judicial District
(Dutchess, Orange, Putnam, Rockland, Westchester Counties)

• I am proud of my 17 years of judicial experience. I came up the judicial ladder the old fashioned way. I have been a City, County and Family Court judge, and now I am an Acting Supreme Court Justice. Prior to becoming a judge I was a patent attorney for Kraft-General Foods. I was president of the Westchester County Bar and, the Westchester Black Bar Association. I have held leadership positions within the NYS and American Bar Associations and was a board member of Westchester Legal Services. Westchester, Rockland and Orange County Bar Associations have each rated me well qualified.
