JUDICIAL APPOINTMENT

HM The Queen has appointed Tudor Wyn Owen to be a Circuit Judge on the advice of the Lord Chancellor.

The Lord Chief Justice has assigned him to the South Eastern Circuit, based in Snaresbrook Crown Court London with effect from Monday 29 October 2007.

His Honour Judge Owen is 56. He was called to the Bar in 1974. He was appointed as a Recorder on the South Eastern Circuit in 1991.
Great news, but now that he is a fully fledged Judge he will be subject to the scrutiny of the press and the public gaze; and the heavy duties and responsibilites of his new job mean that sadly for us we will no longer have the benefit of his eloquent and learned posts here in JB.

You'll be missed around here, Tudor. Well done again and best of luck in your new appointment.
