A message from DELF's chair
Welcome to DELF. We are a vibrant and busy organisation with educational and social events throughout the year. Our flagship social event is the annual black-tie dinner held every spring, and we host a full-day conference in early autumn. We are indebted to the work and help of the Committee and our Administrator, Harriet Devey. We always welcome feedback on DELF events or ideas about what DELF can do for you. The success of our liaison relationships with the Chief Magistrate and the Administrative Court Office depends on us being made aware of any issues, or suggested areas of improvement. Please do not hesitate to send us your suggestions or information to [email protected].
The members’ area contains the first-ever searchable collection of judgments from Westminster Magistrates’ Court. In order to help grow the collection, please do send us any Part 2 judgments, or judgments on lead issues in Part 1.
We look forward to welcoming you as a member and hope to see you soon at our next event.
