Swearing-In Ceremony

Abstract

6 You join this Court at a time when it has apparently become fashionable in the so-called popular press publicly to assail Judges in this State and throughout the country. This fashion is urged by an unrepresentative coven of journalists with a wicked agenda. However, you can avoid their scrutiny by working seven days a week, accepting no pay, taking no holidays and never making the slightest mistake whether on or off the bench. You should avoid overseas travel if at all possible. From now on, if you live your life as if it were an apprenticeship to sainthood you will be quite safe.
