Our justice system is
incredibly busy and in my experience, Judges and court staff work extremely
hard, but delays and time constraints are common features because of demands on
the court service. Covid-19 with its first Lockdown in March 2020, caused
unprecedented disruption to workplaces everywhere and whilst the courts and
court-users adapted admirably to remote working, timetables were heavily
impacted.
Having decided to leave judicial office,the idea grew of conducting private FDRs as an effective alternative to court-based FDRs because there are just so many benefits to them taking place outside court.
