Requires the advice and consent of the city council for the appointment of judges by the Mayor of the city of New York

This bill proposes changing how judges are selected for New York City's family court and city-wide criminal courts. Currently, the mayor appoints family court judges without needing approval, but this legislation would require the mayor to get consent from the city council before making those appointments. For criminal court judges, the bill suggests they would be elected by voters instead of appointed by the mayor, while family court judges would remain appointed with council approval. The changes aim to alter the existing appointment process to include more oversight or public participation in selecting these judges.
