Practice Overview John Macdonald is a skilful cross examiner, a persuasive advocate, and a very experienced trial lawyer. He is the senior QC at the Chancery Bar. In January 2016 John was asked to settle proceedings on behalf of inhabitants of the island of Barbuda alleging that the Paradise Found (Project) Act of the Antigua Parliament, passed to facilitate a massive development on the island of Barbuda, where Princess Diana liked to holiday, is unconstitutional and invalid. The Defendants are the developers Robert De Niro and Kerry Packer, and the Attorney General of Antigua and Barbuda. He made his name in the Ocean Island case, Tito v Waddell [1977] Ch 106 in which Sir Robert Megarry, Vice Chancellor, reviewed 50 years of British Colonial history. John's extensive knowledge of the ways of government at all levels and his great experience as a trial lawyer have been employed across the whole field of chancery litigation and public law. In giving judgment in the Ocean Island case Megarry said: "I shall add a word about Mr Macdonald. I hope it will not be thought improper, if I say that however disappointed the Banabans may be at the result of this litigation, they have reason to be deeply grateful to Mr Macdonald for all the skill and effort that he had manifestly put into his tenacious presentation of their case." Commercial Litigation From 2010 to 2013 John was immersed in complex litigation about the ownership of British Natural Energy (BNE), the only company producing oil in Belize.

I realize, of course, that there is a large element of symbolism in your selection of Dr. Kirkland and me to be the recipients of honorary degress, and that through him you are honoring the bar of our community, and through me the judges who man its courts. Nevertheless, both of us are proud and happy that your choice fell upon us. I am particularly proud to have been associated with Weymouth Kirkland on this occasion. His contributions to his profession are many. One of the most significant was the pioneer role that he played in the development of a new kind of court room advocacy.

  • THE RT HON SIR ROBERT MEGARRY an Address Given at A
    THE RT HON SIR ROBERT MEGARRY An address given at a Service of Remembrance and Thanksgiving in Lincolns Inn Chapel on 12 March 2007 by Sir Martin Nourse Amongst members of Lincoln’s Inn, Sir Robert Megarry was, with Lords Denning and Hailsham, one of the three great men of the latter half of the last century. Each was of outstanding intellectual brilliance: Denning as a judge, Hailsham as statesman and philosopher, Megarry both as a judge and, as Professor Prichard of Nottingham has rated him, one of the top five academic lawyers of the post-war period. It is probable that no judge since Jessel, certainly no Chancery judge, has wielded such influence from a seat at first instance. And as scholar, teacher and author, his contribution to the law was simply immeasurable. In the legal profession he was unique for excellence as both practitioner and academic. To find anyone comparable in both spheres of achievement you have to go back to names such as Coke and Blackstone. Ted’s accomplishments were so many and varied that it would be an easy thing for a piece like this to descend into a mere recital of dates, distinctions, publications and so forth. I intend to speak of him mainly as an author of famous books, as a judge, as a devoted servant of the Inn and as a man. Ted did not come here to eat his dinners until 1941, when, having been rejected for war service on medical grounds, he was working in the Ministry of Supply. By that time he was 31.

  • Twenty Years a Judge: Reflections and Refractions Neill Lecture 2017, Oxford Law Faculty Lord Neuberger, President of the Supreme Court 10 February 2017
    Twenty Years a Judge: Reflections and Refractions Neill Lecture 2017, Oxford Law Faculty Lord Neuberger, President of the Supreme Court 10 February 2017 1. In autumn last year, I chalked up 20 years as a judge and in autumn this year I will have become an ex-Judge. And, as my judicial adventure nears what property lawyers sometimes call its terminus ad quem, I thought that, in the best traditions of the civil service, it might be worthwhile to start thinking about lessons learned. Although, on reflection, it may be more propitious to use another expression because I have observed that lessons learned tends to be invoked as a method of deflecting blame after a disaster. 2. Some judicial careers are monochromatic while others are technicolour. A number of judges start and end their careers as trial judges – and none the worse for that; in my early days at the Chancery Bar, Sir John Pennycuick and Sir Robert Megarry (who will feature more than once in this talk) appeared to be outstanding judicial figures, and I think that most people would confirm that assessment. By contrast, I have had a relatively peripatetic judicial existence, and I hope you will not think it excessively self-centred if I consider the judge’s role through the prism of that career. 3. The move from barrister to judge is self-evidently the biggest change, as it involves a fundamental functional shift. I found the change from poacher to gamekeeper relatively easy, at least in front of house. In each case, one was performing (in both senses of the word) a well-defined role whose rules and parameters were well established – and each role involved performing in the same sort of play on the same stage as before.

  • The Hamlyn Lectures
    THE HAMLYN LECTURES Forty-first series Protection of the Public — A New Challenge The Right Hon. Sir Harry Woolf Protection of the Public— A New Challenge by The Right Hon. Sir Harry Woolf, LL.B. Fellow of University College, London. Based on the forty-first series of Hamlyn Lectures, this book charts the growth and describes the funda- mental characteristics of administrative law. The author takes as his starting point the conclusion of Lord Denning's Hamlyn Lectures, Freedom Under the Law, delivered in 1949, warning against the abuse of power by the executive and the need for the courts to develop new remedies to counteract poss- ible abuse. Sir Harry Woolf identifies the features of our system which have enabled administrative law to develop so rapidly in recent years. He continues to examine the way in which these features could be used to achieve the further progress he believes is still needed to ensure that the public are adequately protected against the abuse of the executive's ever-increasing power. Discussion falls into four sections: • Features of the present process of judicial review • The extension of judicial review by the courts • Alternatives to judicial review • Reforms Drawing on his extensive experience both as barris- ter and as judge, Sir Harry Woolf concentrates on the practicalities of everyday administrative procedure. Protection of the Public is lively reading and will prove a thought-provoking stimulus to all interested in how the power of the executive may be tempered in its application to individual citizens.

Brightly colored ribbons of red, green, yellow and white, rather than metal clips and staples fasten the legal papers.2 After comparison with the volatile atmosphere and often unruly conduct of a trial in a United States courtroom, it is natural to assume that the British model of courtroom advocacy pro- * B.S., 1965, Cornell University; J.D., University of California at Berkeley.
