Judge Djinsad Desir for Rockland County Court 2024

I am running for Rockland County Court Judge and ask for your support. In most of New York, the County Court is where felony charges are prosecuted. County Court Judges make important decisions that affect the lives of those accused, victims, their families, and the community at large.
