New York Chief Judge Flip-Flops On Lawsuit. Again

New York's Chief Judge, Judith Kaye, threatened to bring a lawsuit for judicial pay raises in April (New York's Chief Judge Threatens To Sue For Pay Raises).

Then she changed her mind in July (A Judicial Brawl in New York As Chief Judge Kaye Abandons Lawsuit Threat).

Now, according to this AP report, she is once again threatening a lawsuit (NY's chief judge says she may sue over judicial pay raises, via Judicial Reports).

What, exactly, is the rest of the state's judiciary to think?
