2006 New York Code - Board Of Judges.

 
    § 2407. Board of judges.  1. The judges of said court shall constitute
  the  board  of  judges  of  the county. The judge elected from the first
  district shall be the president. The meetings  of  the  board  shall  be
  public, except when such board shall be in executive session, and so far
  as  is  practicable  shall  be  held  at  regular intervals, and all its
  proceedings shall be recorded by its secretary and shall be preserved. A
  majority of the members of the board  shall  constitute  a  quorum.  The
  board  may  by  resolution  provide for the conduct of its meetings, the
  keeping and preservation  of  its  minutes  and  the  public  inspection
  thereof  at  reasonable  times;  for the order of judicial business, the
  manner of its discharge and the maintenance of order in  and  about  the
  courts;  for  the  establishment  of  parts  of  the  court  and for the
  assignment of judges to hold the several parts so established.
    2. The board of judges shall designate the number and general location
  of the places, one or more for each judge, in which court shall be  held
  in each district. The president of the board of judges shall preside and
  shall  be  entitled to vote at all meetings of the board. In addition to
  all the powers of a member  of  the  board  he  shall  exercise  general
  supervision  of  the business of the court and have such other powers as
  may be conferred by resolution of the board. He shall whenever he  deems
  it  necessary  for  the prompt disposition of business, assign any judge
  temporarily to hold court in any district in the county, other than that
  in which he had been assigned by the board, and he  may  transfer  cases
  for trial or for all purposes from one district to another.  The acts or
  directions  of  the  president  of  the  board of judges may be vacated,
  amended or modified by a two-thirds vote of the members at a regular  or
  special meeting of the board.
    3.  The board of judges shall designate a clerk of the court to act as
  secretary of the board and from time to time  substitute  another.  Such
  secretary  shall  serve  without  additional compensation. All necessary
  disbursements of the board of judges and the secretary thereof shall  be
  a  charge against the first judicial district and paid as other district
  charges.
