08/04/2024

The Supreme Court of New South Wales was founded on 17 May 1824 and to celebrate its bicentenary the Court has published an illustrated history: Constant Guardian, Changing Times. On Wednesday, 3 April 2024, the Banco Court was filled to capacity as the Governor of NSW, her Excellency the Hon Margaret Beazley AC KC, Chief Justice Andrew Bell and the former chief justice, the Hon J J Spigelman AC KC officially launched the publication and opened the new Supreme Court Gallery. Speaking about the book, Mr Spigelman said:

The process of reading was a delight. The writing is clear, devoid of cliches and the array of photographs enlivens and adds depth to the text. It is a magnificent testament to the significance of the bicentenary of the Court… Despite my past immersion in these topics, reading this volume has been revelatory. I learned something new on virtually every page of the text. I congratulate and thank the authors of the respective chapters and, especially, the editors, Keith Mason and Larissa Reid who brought it all together.

In addition to the click and collect locations, there is now the option to have your copy delivered to any address in Australia for $15.
