In this episode, Alma-Constance and Lucinda talk to the Honourable Mrs Justice Joanna Smith DBE, a High Court Judge, to ask her about the cases that are heard in the High Court and how judges are appointed to the High Court. We discuss:
· the three different types of courts within the High Court which deal with civil cases and where are they based
· what Joanna does in a typical working day as a judge
· what happens if people aren’t happy with a decision in the high court
· how she became a barrister and judge
Jo also tells us that when she 10 years old she was very proud of being able to stand on her head!
