Spearheaded by New York State Chief Judge Judith S. Kaye and Chief Administrative Judge Jonathan Lippman, the institute was created through a unique partnership between the New York State Courts and Pace University School of Law. The New York State Judicial Institute serves as a statewide center for the education, training, and research facility for all judges, justices, legal staff and employees of the New York State Unified Court System; It is the nation's first training and research facility for judges built by and for a state court system. The Honorable Juanita Bing Newton serves as the dean of the institute.
Jurists from not only New York but also from around the world have traveled to the institute, to participate in programs and conferences. The institute also serves as a forum where judges, lawyers, and scholars from the state, the nation and the international community can convene for events as varied as a North American symposium on environmental law, whose cosponsors included the United Nations Environment Programme, and a "Partners in Justice" colloquium, where the judiciary, law school clinical programs, and the bar explored collateral consequences of criminal convictions and ways to improve indigent representation and access to the courts.
The building, operated by New York State Unified Court System personnel, is a three-story state-of-the-art facility of 30,000 square feet (2,800 m2) and features a 160-seat auditorium, a multi-use lecture hall, classrooms, conference rooms, and a business center.
