-----but that is a completely separate issue. Currently, District Court practise can be very complex, and very valuable work is being done there. Therefore, I do not believe any high-flying legal academics would be demeaning themselves by applying to be a judge in the District Court. Some complex and very difficult issues such as guardianship, domestic violence and access are dealt with in the District Court. I just wanted to put that on the record.
