Just came in here to look him up - there is little content on the web about him. An article would have been handy ! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.228.214.45 (talk) 08:26, 2 April 2012 (UTC)

Service as a judge

The list has had people ceasing to be judges upon their appointment to a more senior office - Chief Justice, Senior Puisne Judge or Senior Judge Administrator. I have corrected these dates as the Supreme Court Act (Qld) sections 13, 36 & 49 all provide that the person continues to be a judge, and may sit as, and exercise any of the powers of, a judge.

Good catch. Haven't we lost lists of a couple of positions here? No Chief Justice, at least? The Drover's Wife (talk) 22:30, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

I'm in the process of integrating them as a single sortable list, consistent with the other states - the heading current judges is currently misleading - if you sort the list by position you will see all the chief justices, judges of appeal & some of the senior puisne judges. A note for future editors - unlike other states the senior puisne judge is an appointed position with administrative responsibilities rather than the longest serving judge. Default sort order will need to be fixed - I was planning to sort it by date of first appointment consistent with the other states, but I am open to other suggestions - once the list is sortable it doesn't make much difference as 1 or 2 clicks gets it in the order you want.

As it doesn't make much difference I have the default sort reflects the former order of position & then chronological. Find bruce (talk) 02:46, 5 October 2018 (UTC)

I think you've done a really good job on this. The Drover's Wife (talk) 04:40, 5 October 2018 (UTC)
