Below is a temporary biography of New Jersey Supreme Court Chief Justice Stuart Rabner. It is taken from the judiciary website. From personal experience after having argued several cases before Chief Justice Albin, I can tell you that, in my opinion, he is very knowledgable of the law and the case being argued, really really nice, has a way of making lawyers comfortable in "his" house (he is the Chief Justice, after all), and a great asset to our Supreme Court even though I usually disagree with his opinions. If I am arguing a case before the Supreme Court of New Jersey on a criminal issue, I try to know who the issue is handled by federal courts too because Chief Justice Rabner came to our bench from the United States Attorneys' Office.
