Event Details

The North Eastern Circuit will be hosting a talk and drinks reception this November. The Circuit Society will be meeting at Park Square Barristers, Leeds for an after-work drinks reception and an opportunity to network with Middle Templars from all practice areas and seniorities. All Benchers, Hall members, students and guests are welcome.

Please note this event has now sold out for student members.

Questioning but not under caution - an opportunity to ask Judges the questions you have always wanted to ask.
The talk will be held by a panel of judges from different areas, including HHJ Mark Gargan (Senior Circuit Judge), HHJ Linda Cains (Circuit Judge), Helen Chapman (Deputy District Judge), Georgina Nolan (Coroner). Each panellist will provide a brief overview of their current position before the floor is opened for a Q&A.
