To successfully apply for a judicial role, you must be of ‘good character’.
You should think carefully about whether anything in your past or present could affect your application. This applies to:
- legal professionals
- current judicial office holders
- members of the public
You must declare all criminal convictions and cautions, even if they are spent.
You’re responsible for keeping this information up to date and must tell us about any changes until you are appointed.
