Hector Daniel LaSalle[2] (born 1967/1968)[3] is an American lawyer and jurist who is the presiding judge of the New York State Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Second Department. He was unsuccessfully nominated by Governor Kathy Hochul to serve as chief judge of the New York Court of Appeals, the state's highest court.[4][5]
LaSalle's nomination drew opposition from a wide variety of Democratic groups and constituencies, including numerous unions and trade groups, criminal justice advocates, elected officeholders, and local party affiliates, who raised concerns about his track record on issues relating to abortion, criminal justice, corporate interests, and the environment.
In January 2023, the state senate's Judiciary Committee narrowly voted to reject the nomination. However, Hochul threatened to sue the senate to force a full vote on the nomination. On February 15, the full Senate overwhelmingly voted 39-20 to reject LaSalle's nomination. Hochul acknowledged the result and eventually nominated Rowan Wilson.
