H To Meet New People
Judge Susan Moiseev meets new people
in extra-curricular activities
HEIDI PRESS
) Local News Editor
lthough she is in the
spotlight as chief judge
of the 46th District
Court in Southfield,
Judge Susan Moiseev
relies on her organizational ac-
tivities for meeting new
people.
Judge Moiseev, 36, who is
active in a variety of Jewish
communal and bar association
> activities adds that it is not
enough just to join and be
active in groups. People have
to know you're interested in
being introduced.
"If people don't know you're
available, they don't think to
suggest somebody. You've got
;=to let people know that (you're
available).
Judge Moiseev takes a bal-
anced look at being single. She
has found advantages and dis-
advantages.
)
"It was an advantage, I
think, in some ways during the
(last election) campaign be-
cause I didn't have to worry
about other people too much. I
could be out every night at
campaign events and I didn't
have to worry that I was short
changing someone else. And it
\_ was a drawback during the
/--) campaign. Some people tended
not to think that a single per-
? son could be a judge."
Overall, she accepts her
L
singlehood as a fact of life. "I
don't really think about it. It's
just a fact of my life. I'm a
judge, I'm a lawyer, I'm a
single, I'm a daughter, I'm a
sister. It's just another part of
my life."
Nonetheless, she is still an
advocate for single people, and
she sees that as one of her con-
tributions to the Jewish com-
munity.
"I think there's a problem in
the Jewish community finding
a place for single people. I
know too many things are
couple-oriented and not
enough just people-oriented.
I'm not saying they have to be
singles-oriented either, but
you shouldn't feel uncomforta-
ble because you didn't bring a
spouse."
Judge Moiseev was elected
last November after
having been appointed to the
court in May 1986 by Gov.
James Blanchard. Prior to her
appointment she was chief
counsel for the Civil Division of
the Legal Aid and Defender
Association. Before that, she
practiced law for nine years.
A graduate of the University
of Michigan and the Univer-
sity of Detroit Law School,
Judge Moiseev spends her free
time going to movies, reading
and exercising. Although her
job is demanding, she still has
time to travel.
She is a participant in the
Wexner Heritage Foundation
leadership program with 16
other specially-selected Jewish
Detroiters in addition to her
other Jewish community ac-
tivities: executive committee
of the Jewish Community
Council, program chairman of
the Federation Women's Di-
vision's Business and Profes-
sional Division, a member of
the steering committee of the
Federation Breakfast Club, a
member of the Business and
Professional Branch of Na-
tional Council of Jewish
Women, a member of Jewish
Family Service, the Jewish
Community Center, Cong.
Beth Shalom, and is involved
in efforts to benefit the Jewish
Association for Retarded Citi-
zens.
This past week she was hon-
ored by the B'nai B'rith Barris-
ters Unit on the occasion of her
election to the bench.
She advises other singles to
be happy just as they are, to
take life one day at a time.
"There's no sense in being
miserable just because you're
single. There are some advan-
tages. I did divorce work for a
long time in my practice and
there were times I didn't regret
for a moment not having some
of the problems my clients had.
"I think you really have to
live each day and not think
about what might have
been." ❑
