MANAGING EDITOR’S NOTE

NOTE FROM THE MANAGING EDITOR

I am pleased to announce that twenty junior staff members have been selected to join the Family

Court Review (FCR) Volume 56 editorial staff at the Maurice A. Deane School of Law at Hofstra

University. Each of these students has outstanding credentials and qualifications. They have

expressed enthusiasm and eagerness to work with FCR. I am confident that they will carry out their

journal responsibilities in a manner that is consistent with FCR’s respected, high standards.

I am honored to work with the Hofstra law school student staff, faculty, and administration;

FCR’s sponsoring organization, the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts (AFCC); FCR’s

publisher, Wiley; and the FCR multimember and multidisciplinary editorial board. Understandably,

the day-to-day duties as FCR Managing Editor never end. With each publication, however, I feel

more passionate about the work this prestigious journal produces, and I am honored to have this

opportunity to participate.

With the passing of our beloved professor and mentor, J. Herbie DiFonzo, it is even more of an

honor to participate in FCR and to be able to provide this publication as a tribute to Professor

DiFonzo. Without him and his late wife, Ruth Stern, FCR would not be what it is today. For that we

are forever grateful and indebted to Professor DiFonzo.

Throughout the school year, the junior and senior student editorial staff balance school, work,

and journal obligations simultaneously. We remain inspired, and on behalf of our editorial staff I

would like to sincerely thank AFCC for the opportunity to produce FCR. We are proud to present

Volume 56, Number 1 and look forward to the future issues.
