Aw Sookie Sookie Now...

from the DR newswire:

Dominican appointed to Court of Appeals

Rolando Acosta became the first Dominican to be appointed to the New York Court of Appeals. Acosta was appointed by NY Governor Eliot Spitzer. Originally from Santiago, Acosta moved to the US at the age of 14. He will serve on the first division of the Court, overseeing Manhattan and the Bronx. Diario Libre writes that Acosta is one of New York's most seasoned judges, issuing dozens of verdicts and arguments that have been published both locally and nationally.

A country boy, too! Can you imagine bachata playing from his office? The DR flag on his desk? Adobo smells coming from his office during lunch? Whippin' out his chancleta to beat a fool for committing a crime? The possibilities are endless!

And an Acosta, to boot! I bet we're related...

*smooches...hoping Rolando doesn't get caught smoking crack with a hooker*
