The UK Supreme Court will sit in Belfast for the first time in April 2018, in the Inns of Court Library at the Royal Courts of Justice in Belfast. Supreme Court President Lady Hale will be joined by Deputy President Lord Mance, Lord Kerr (former Lord Chief Justice of Northern Ireland), Lord Hodge and Lady Black for up to four days of hearings. Lady Hale said: ‘My colleagues and I strongly believe that the experience of watching a case in person should not be limited to those within easy reach of London.’ It will hear two cases, including the ‘gay cake’ case, Lee v Ashers Baking Company Ltd [2015] NICty 2.
