Report of the Judiciary

Overview of the Report of the Judiciary

The Report of the Judiciary (ROJ for short) replaces our traditional Annual Reports with a ‘Living Document’ that is to be updated on a regular basis with current information and highlights instead of once per year. This Living Document will be archived on an annual basis to provide a truer snapshot of the Circuit over the previous years.

Please select the report for the year you wish to review, and thank you for your interest in our Circuit.
