The primary elections are nearly here — early voting starts June 14, and Election Day is June 24 — and voters are preparing to head to the polls.
Though the mayoral and council primaries are the “biggest” races on the ballot, Brooklynites will also be voting on new Civil Court justices for Kings County. In New York City, the Civil Court handles cases where parties are seeking monetary relief up to $50,000; tenant-landlord disputes and some other housing issues; and small claims cases. Civil Court judges serve 10-year terms.
