Jay C. Carlisle II (A.B., 1965, University of California at Los Angeles [U.C.LA.]; J.D., 1969, King Hall at the University of California; 1969-70 Columbia University School of International Affairs) was admitted to practice in New York in 1970. He has litigated cases in state and federal courts throughout the nation. He was a professor of Law for 38 years at the Elizabeth Haub School of Law at Pace University and also was assistant dean at the SUNY-Buffalo Law School for three years. During his academic tenure Carlisle was an active litigation consultant and expert witness for law firms in the New York City area. He has served for many years, by appointments of the Chief Judge of New York and three governors, on statewide ethics and public service commissions. Carlisle has served for many years as a Special Master for the Supreme Court of New York, and is currently a referee for the NYS Commission on Judicial Conduct and a commissioner for the New York State Law Revision Commission. Carlisle is known for his scholarship on Civil Procedure, New York Practice and Professional Responsibility which has been cited by many courts including the New York State Court of Appeals and U.S. Court of Appeals for Second Circuit. Carlisle's expert witness work includes appearances before state and federal courts in New York and Connecticut, the High Court of Appeals in England, and the International Chamber of Commerce Court of Arbitration in Paris. Carlisle has taught as an adjunct professor at the Fordham, New York, Quinnipiac and Pace law schools and is a frequent lecturer on ethics and civil procedure for many continuing legal education providers. He is a recipient of teaching awards from the New York State Trial Lawyers Association and the ABA-American Law Institute and he served for many years as a director and Vice-President of the Westchester County Bar Foundation which presented him its annual distinguished public service award in 2013. Carlisle is an elected life fellow of the New York State and American Bar Associations. In 2015 the New York Law Journal selected Carlisle as one of its outstanding public interest lawyers.
