Happy Friyay! I am so pleased to have been able to personally hand out the Mariano T. Muyot Scholarship Check, for $500.00 to OCCC incoming freshman Iliana Lopez this week! Iliana was one of 24 students at NFA who applied for the scholarship that I established in memory of my dad, Mariano T. Muyot. The wonderful folks at NFA administer the scholarship and choose the recipient. This is my third year giving out the scholarship and it truly is one of the most rewarding things that I do. I wish Iliana all the best of luck; I know she’s going to accomplish great things in her life! And once again, I wish to thank the fantastic guidance counselors at NFA who have been instrumental in establishing and administering the scholarship. JURORS FIND SURGEON COVERUP in Medical Malpractice Trial and award $55.9 Million in Damages. It is believed to be the largest jury verdict ever in Rockland County. After a five-month trial, jurors in Rockland County found that the surgeons had not followed the proper standard of medical care when they performed a procedure on Patricia Jones called a laminectomy. The procedure is a fairly routine spinal operation, and it was aimed at alleviating pressure on Patricia Jones’ spinal cord, her attorney said. BROADWAY WEEK is September 3 - 15th!

Immigrant rights advocates filed a sweeping class-action lawsuit in federal court against the Trump administration Monday, alleging that lax oversight by Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Department of Homeland Security has caused severe deficiencies in medical and mental healthcare, as well as discrimination against detainees with disabilities, in nearly 160 facilities across the country. ICE provides 'deplorable' healthcare to detained immigrants, advocates allege in massive lawsuit THIRTY YEARS - wow! I was sitting in court today and I got an email from Fordham Law School. It was an invitation to my 30th law school Reunion. I have been at this lawyer thing a long time. Not going to lie, I still was not the most experienced lawyer in the courtroom today. 
Here is some more information about the scholarship in my dad’s name. I know he would approve:
THE MARIANO T MUYOT SCHOLARSHIP - I am pleased to announce that I have been in touch with NFA and I have founded a scholarship in my father’s name. It will be awarded to an NFA student each year, starting in 2017, who will be attending community college the following fall. Why community college? My dad had been attending college in the Philippines when he answered the call to join the U.S. Navy at Subic Bay in Manila. He went on to serve in the Navy for seven years, ship side. He was still in the Navy when he married by mom, when I was born, and when my brother was born. He became a US citizen by serving in Vietnam, specifically the Gulf of Tonkin. He moved to the United States and began working for IBM. To finish up his college degree, he attended Dutchess County community college and finally got his associates degree when I was a little girl I want to say I was in kindergarten. I remember attending the community college graduation. Although my dad was much older than the other students, he had really taken to college life and we were shocked at how many friends he had and how the other students acted like he was just another college kid. My dad was a VERY social person, he loved talking to EVERYONE, and had a great experience and community college. It allowed him to have opportunities that he never would have had otherwise #lawyer #HudsonValley #Newburgh #NFA #MarianoTMuyot #scholarship @newburghschools
Some members of the jury, which deliberated for nearly five days, reportedly found that a cover-up by the surgeons had happened through a lack of crucial information in their operation reports and notes. They reportedly told the medical malpractice attorney that they’d believed the plaintiffs’ argument that doctors had left out alarming surgery events, and that the doctors hadn’t relayed all of what occurred during the operation to certain physicians and nurses who treated Patricia Jones in the hours afterward.
I am rocking my Bare Mineral #makeup though, so there’s that 💄#54andFabulous #lawyersofinstagram #lawyermom #lawyer #HudsonValley #Newburgh
