Pace Now

The Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University has partnered with Legal Hand, Inc., a New York State not-for-profit corporation, to launch the Legal Hand Call-In Center serving Westchester County. The virtual center is staffed and operated by Haub Law, and is scheduled to open for visitors this month. “Through our partnership with Legal Hand, the Elisabeth Haub School of Law will serve an important role as a resource for the community, while providing our students with an invaluable opportunity to understand and address access to justice issues,” said Horace E. Anderson, Dean of the Elisabeth Haub School of Law. “The Center’s goals are to empower both Volunteers and visitors to understand and navigate issues and self-help resources, and to help visitors resolve issues before they turn into legal action.”

“This reminds me very much of the 3-letter agencies in this country having said they won’t use Lenovo laptops anymore,” Darren Hayes, the CIS Program Chair at Pace University, told the E-Commerce Times. “With mobile devices there’s always going to be areas of memory that a forensic examiner can’t access, whether it’s a ROM chip or any other kind of memory, and one of the issues for intelligence here is, we don’t have access to all the memory on these devices and don’t know what they can do.”

Last November New Yorkers voted to inscribe environmental rights into the constitution. Now, as the first cases emerge, government is struggling to comply with these rights. Pace University’s Elisabeth Haub School of Law Professor Nicholas Robinson explains the changes necessary in government operations for the state to uphold this new law and how NY courts hold the ultimate decision in the first four pending cases.

Haub's Professor Nolon provides thoughts on Gov. Kathy Hochul’s housing plans. "I think the governor has really nailed this," said John Nolon, co-counsel at Pace University's Land Use Law Center in White Plains.

John Nolon, distinguished professor of law emeritus at the Elisabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University, is widely seen as one of the most prominent thought leaders in land use law. The roots of this focus, which fueled a career that spanned decades, can be traced to his childhood on a ranch in Nebraska. “There didn’t seem to be too much confusion about the fact that we’d take care of the land and use it and make a profit from it, but that we would always treat it with respect,” Nolon recalled.
