Judges Service Oct 2013-12-11 – Lists of Acceptance LISTS OF JUDGES WHO ACCEPTED INVITATIONS TO THE JUDGES’ SERVICES IN 2013, 2012, 2011 1. There follow lists of the judges who accepted invitations to attend the Judges’ Services at Westminster Abbey in October 2013, 2012 and 2011. 2. In response to a request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000, these lists were disclosed in December 2013 by the Crown Office (part of the Ministry of Justice). Normally the MoJ publishes on its website its monthly FoI log of its responses to such requests, but it has not done so for these lists. So, they are being published here for the first time. The MoJ has advised that lists of judges who actually attended these services are not kept. These lists are therefore the closest approximation. 3. The MoJ has stated that invitations are issued: each year to all Supreme Court, Court of Appeal and High Court Judges; on a three-year rota to Circuit Judges, Tribunal Judges, Masters and Registrars; and annually to a proportion of District Judges and some other judges. The lists for these three years thus cover those judges subject to that rota, except any recently appointed who may not yet have received an invitation. 4. Invitations are issued jointly by the Secretary of State for Justice and Lord Chancellor (a government minister) and the Dean of Westminster Abbey (a Church of England clergyman). The Judges’ Services are held as religious services within the rites of the Church of England, but are not open to the public. Judges participate in their official capacities, wearing judicial robes, in working time, and at considerable public expense. 5. The publication of these lists enables any criminal defendant or civil party or their representatives, where a religious issue is likely to be, or becomes, material in the case, to see if the judge hearing that case has accepted an invitation to participate in such a service. 6. Thus consideration can be given to raising a legal argument that, if the judge did so attend, his or her impartiality on the religious issue may have been compromised, or be seen to have been compromised, on the basis of an actual or perceived personal interest. Such an argument might apply in connection with a recusal application or when advancing grounds for appeal. 7. These lists include some persons who are not UK judges. To assist, the heading of each of the three lists supplied has been adumbrated and each page shows any continuation of a sub-heading and the relevant year.

  • Padfield Wonders Aloud (Do Contact Me on [email protected])
    University of Leeds Centre for Criminal Justice Studies Justice in the Criminal Courts in the 21st Century What are criminal courts for? Nicky Padfield wonders aloud (do contact me on [email protected]) VERY VERY DRAFT Introduction I am taking the opportunity as the first speaker at this conference to raise some big and/or broad questions. The paper is not as developed as I would like: I shall dig more into history, theory, law and practice in due course. But, in essence, my argument is that this big picture allows us to remember important principles. Many of the speakers who follow will focus on individual aspects of the trial process, often presenting original empirical research. Here I go back to basics. What is a trial? A public process which compels defendants to answer a charge of criminal wrongdoing. The outcome is often a serious sanction. Obviously, trials have to be fair. That does not simply mean they should not be unfair. Should we focus on ways in which public courts can promote fairness and justice, and indeed social cohesion? Swift justice has merits, but does not necessarily achieve just outcomes. Non-public ‗diversion‘ is equally dangerous. I will briefly raise some of the criminological literature on compliance, legitimacy and desistance – but speak up also for human rights and the rule of law - a big agenda! History For the purpose of this paper, I took as my starting point a series of riot trials, at three different moments in English history. Serendipitously, when the riots of 2011 were still recent, I happened upon a book called the Report of the Trials for Rioting at Ely and Littleport, 1816 (Warren, ed, 1997).

  • 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.

    The Middle Templar The Honourable Society of the Middle Temple Issue 52 Michaelmas 2012 Middle Temple Officers 2012 Introduction Treasurer The Rt Hon The Lord Clarke of Stone-cum-Ebony After a year in post as Under Treasurer, it strikes me that two of the key qualities that Deputy Treasurer characterise Middle Temple are its open- Christopher Symons QC mindedness and its adaptability. This issue of The Middle Templar demonstrates these Deputy Treasurer Elect qualities in abundance: in 2012, the Library The Rt Hon The Lord Judge, hosted a Victorian banquet; Hall became a Lord Chief Justice theatre in the round; and Fountain Court was transformed into a Belgian Cycling Lent Reader Paradise. Like other ancient organisations – and indeed the profession Marilynne Morgan CB we represent – we will survive and thrive if we are able to adapt to face new challenges, and we have certainly shown this year that we Autumn Reader can metamorphose with the requirements of the day. Michael Crystal QC The Inn's willingness to adapt has shown itself of late not only by the Director of transformation of its physical space, but also by its ability to be self- Middle Temple Advocacy critical and open to new ways of thinking. The current review of our Derek Wood CBE QC governance, with its proposals to sharpen our focus and put greater emphasis on our core purposes, effective decision-making and Master of the Archive planning for the future, provides a good example of this.

  • Introduction
    Notes Introduction 1. Guardian, 17 June 1999 – John Hutton, the health minister, was quoted as saying there should be ‘radical improvements in adoption services. We will not hesitate to take the necessary action in the future to ensure that looked-after children do not become the innocent victims of misplaced theory or ideology’. And a prospective adopter wrote to the Evening Standard, 4 September 2003: ‘No first-time natural parent on this planet is, or will ever be, examined and intrusively checked on their parenting capability, as adopters are.’ 2. Jenny Keating, ‘Struggle for Identity: Issues Underlying the Enactment of the 1926 Adoption of Children Act’, University of Sussex Journal of Contemporary History, issue 3 (2001), http://www.sussex.ac.uk/history/documents/3._ keating_struggle_for_identity.pdf. 3. They could apply to see their original birth certificate when they reached the age of majority but a court order was necessary. During this period very few legally adopted children would have reached the age of majority except for a few whose de facto adoptions were made official by the 1926 Adoption Act. 4. See Chapter 6. 5.

    THE RT HON LADY JUSTICE MACUR Advocates’ Graduated Fee Scheme Dispute NOTE FROM THE SENIOR PRESIDING JUDGE 1. This guidance is issued in respect of publicly funded defence cases where the representation order was granted on or after 1 April 2018. 2. This guidance only applies to cases sent to the Crown Court during the period of the dispute between the legal profession and the Lord Chancellor. It has no wider application. 3.
