Call for Federal Circuit Court Judge to be based at Dubbo

With waiting times for Family court matters ballooning out to over 13 months in Dubbo, Orana Law Society president Andrew Boog has called for a Federal Circuit Court judge to be based at Dubbo, reports the Daily Liberal.

The  Attorney General’s department, asked for comment, disputed that non-complex matters had waiting times that long, and while they were committed to reasonable waiting times, were hopeful that they could be achieved through increased efficiency.

The official response said: “The Attorney-General is carefully considering all available options for any administrative and structural reform to address long-term financial sustainability of the federal courts. ” The KPMG review of federal courts’ performance and funding, commissioned in early 2014, will help inform the government’s consideration.”
