Currently over 90% of all cases heard in the courts are No-Fault which are cases brought by Doctors to recover no-fault fees from insurance companies. Since these are two entaties that are in bed with each other most of the time mandate that these disputes be resolved through arbitration. This would save the county millions and we wouldn't have to serve on jury duty as frequently.

There should be an oversight panel to stay on top of issues at the Nassau County. The panel should be made up of respected members of the community. It is in the county charter and in light of the recent suicides and complaints from inmates it would be a prudent decision.

Tickets given by the red light camera program are processed by a company outside of Nassau County. We need jobs here. When the contract is up for renewal make sure ticket processing is done in Nassau.
