Bob CollinsThe Supreme Court of New Jersey is holding a hearing today on whether Judge Vince Sicari has to give up the night gig because it’s undignified.
Sicari, whose stage name is Vince August, is a comedian. He often warms up the crowd of the Colbert Report before the show. He does stand-up and some TV comedy.
