As it’s Christmas, and in lieu of frankincense and myrrh, NLJ offers a bumper two pages of Gold this week. Festive Civil Way topics include the bailiff dress code, PP arrears, DAPOs and the personal injury discount rate. 

Former district judge turned NLJ columnist Stephen Gold also shares his thoughts on ‘One Judiciary’, which will see courts and tribunals judiciary swapping seats to see how the other half live.

Gold includes a reminder there are 80 judicial jobs up for grabs at the moment—but be quick, as applications close on 17 December. He also reveals the success rate of cases before the Supreme Court.
