  • Appellate Advocacy - New Challenges
    THE DENNING LAW JOURNAL APPELLATE ADVOCACY - NEW CHALLENGES THE DAME ANN EBSWORTH MEMORIAL LECTURE LONDON, TUESDAY 21 FEBRUARY 2006 The Hon Justice Michael Kirby AC CMG* DAME ANN EBSWORTH REMEMBERED This lecture honours Dame Ann Ebsworth who died in 2002 of cancer. She was but sixty-four years of age.1 As I am the inaugural lecturer, I will record some personal facts, although her memory will be green for her friends, many of whom have come to this lecture to remember her and to celebrate her life. Ann Ebsworth was born on 19 May 1937. Her father was an officer in the Royal Marines. She was raised a Roman Catholic and derived from her religion and her parents strong convictions and a sense of public service. She read history at the University of London where she was known as a formidable debater. In 1962 she was called to the Bar by Gray’s Inn. Her practice, which was in Liverpool, was predominantly criminal with some family work (which increased) and some civil work (which diminished). She rose to be head of her chambers. She was known as a considerable opponent, particularly in criminal cases. She was described as an “… effective and formidable advocate, thorough in preparation, lucid and courteous in style and entirely unflappable.”2 In 1987 she was appointed to the Northern Circuit Bench. It was at that time that she first met Brenda Hale who had begun training to be an Assistant Recorder in Liverpool. Baroness Hale has told of how thoroughly intimidated she felt, especially because of the daunting experience of lunching with the other judges at St George’s Hall.

  • Lady Hale at the 2018 Pankhurst Lecture, University of Manchester
    2018 – A Year of Anniversaries The 2018 Pankhurst Lecture, University of Manchester Lady Hale, President of The Supreme Court 8 February 2018 2018 marks the anniversary of some very important dates in the history of women’s participation in public life. We all know that 2018 is the 100th anniversary of women getting the vote, although not on same terms as men. Most of us probably know that it is also the 100th anniversary of women getting the right to stand as candidates and be elected to Parliament, this time on the same terms as men. Why the difference? I believe that there were two reasons why only some women got the vote. One was that the same Act of Parliament gave the vote to all men, irrespective of whether they had any property. Giving the vote effectively only to middle class women – those who either had property of their own or were married to men who did or who had University degrees – softened the effect of enfranchising the working-class men. Another was that in 1918, because of the slaughter of the First World War, there were more many more adult women than there were adult men – allowing them to vote on equal terms would have meant that they were in a majority. But there was no risk that more women than men would be elected to Parliament – the whole idea was laughable – so equality there would do no harm. Voting equality was achieved ten years later, in 1928. So we should celebrate 2018 as the 90th anniversary of women getting the 1 right to vote on equal terms with men and have an even bigger celebration in ten years’ time.

  • Women Readers of Middle Temple Celebrating 100 Years of Women at Middle Temple the Incorporated Council of Law Reporting for England and Wales
    The Honourable Society of the Middle Temple Middle Society Honourable the The of 2019 Issue 59 Michaelmas 2019 Issue 59 Women Readers of Middle Temple Celebrating 100 Years of Women at Middle Temple The Incorporated Council of Law Reporting for England and Wales Practice Note (Relevance of Law Reporting) [2019] ICLR 1 Catchwords — Indexing of case law — Structured taxonomy of subject matter — Identification of legal issues raised in particular cases — Legal and factual context — “Words and phrases” con- strued — Relevant legislation — European and International instruments The common law, whose origins were said to date from the reign of King Henry II, was based on the notion of a single set of laws consistently applied across the whole of England and Wales. A key element in its consistency was the principle of stare decisis, according to which decisions of the senior courts created binding precedents to be followed by courts of equal or lower status in later cases. In order to follow a precedent, the courts first needed to be aware of its existence, which in turn meant that it had to be recorded and published in some way. Reporting of cases began in the form of the Year Books, which in the 16th century gave way to the publication of cases by individual reporters, known collectively as the Nominate Reports. However, by the middle of the 19th century, the variety of reports and the variability of their quality were such as to provoke increasing criticism from senior practitioners and the judiciary. The solution proposed was the establishment of a body, backed by the Inns of Court and the Law Society, which would be responsible for the publication of accurate coverage of the decisions of senior courts in England and Wales.
