On Wednesday 16 October 2024, the Inn is hosting an online workshop to help practising members improve their evidence based applications for advocates’ panel appointments (e.g. Attorney General’s civil panels, CPS and SFO panels in crime) and junior judicial posts (e.g. First Tier Tribunals, Deputy/District Judges, and Recorders).

The event will start with a short panel talk about top tips for evidence based applications. This will be followed by one-to-one review sessions in breakout rooms. We will be joined by representatives of the Crown Prosecution Service, Government Legal Department and serving members of the full-time judiciary, all of whom have experience of assessing evidence-based applications.

Details:

Location: Online (Zoom)
Introductory talk: 18:00
Application Review Sessions: 18:30 – 20:00 (you will only be required to attend your allocated 25 minute session within this time period)
