RL Consultant Mark Guthrie and RLC member Sailesh Mehta write Opinion piece for Counsel Magazine

RL Consultant Mark Guthrie and RLC member Sailesh Mehta have written an Opinion piece for Counsel Magazine entitled ‘Promoting and protecting judicial independence’.

They argue that ‘No jurisdiction can afford to be complacent’ whilst examining the circumstances around President Trump’s latest nomination to the Supreme Court, Boris Johnson and Priti Patel’s recent comments on the legal system and reflecting upon judicial appointments systems and politicians’ attitudes to judges worldwide.
