The husband of a Bronx judge under investigation by the Commission on Judicial Conduct bashed the state panel in a bizarre full-page advertisement in The New York Times yesterday.
Former Proskauer Rose lawyer Saul Cohen paid $39,000 through a company he set up called Cannons Inc. for an ad slamming the commission, its controversial chairman and a powerful union boss who filed a complaint against his wife, Bronx Family Court Judge Marian Shelton.
The ad says the commission "overreached" by investigating her for alleged angry outbursts at court officers.
The ad also blasts commission Chairman Raoul Felder's comments on Latinos, Koreans and other ethnic groups.
Commission members have called for Felder's removal after a controversial book, "Schmucks," he wrote with humorist Jackie Mason.
The ad also attacks Dennis Quirk, head of the court officers union, quoting the head of Manhattan Legal Aid as calling Quirk "an unstable chauvinist."
"This is a bunch of bull," Quirk responded.
