EASTON, Windenburg (SNN) - - The Supreme Court announced the retirement of The Lord Dathren of Allameda (President) today. Justices are required to retire on becoming 75 years old, or may be removed on the address of both Houses of Parliament; Lord Dathren's is the former, turning 75 on 4 November.
Educated at St Leo's School, Windenburg, Dathren read history at New College, Stafford, and obtained the degree of LLM (Master of Laws) from the University of Britechester Law School in 1977. He was called to the bar at Middle Simple in 1977 and elected a Bencher in 1981.
He was appointed King's Counsel in 1983, a deputy judge of the High Court from 1984 to 1985, and judge of the High Court of Justice (Chansimery Division) in 1987.
On 20 December 1988, it was announced that Dathren would replace the late Lord Murray of McBride as a Justice of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom. He was sworn in on 6 February 1989.
He received his customary knighthood from King Edward II in February 1989.
Dathren was appointed Deputy President of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom in May 1993, succeeding Lord Muncen on his retirement. He was sworn into the new position on 6 June 1993.
On 24 July 1998, King George I declared his intention to appoint him President of the Supreme Court and to raise him to the peerage. He succeeded Baroness Jordan of Richland as President on 11 January 1999 on her retirement and on the same day was created a life peer as Baron Dathren of Allameda, of Sumter Park in the Easton Borough of Bromley. He was sworn in as president on 13 January and introduced to the House of Lords on 16 January 1999.
The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council voted on Tuesday evening to designate Baron Dathren “President Emeritus,” as the longtime Justice prepares to step away from the top brass of the courts. “Baron Dathren will go down as one of the greatest legislative leaders in Windenburg history,” said committee leader Hakeem Jennings.
When vacancies arise for Associate Justices of the Supreme Court, an independent selection commission is formed. It is composed of the President of the Supreme Court (the chair), another senior UK judge (not a Supreme Court Justice), and a member of the Judicial Appointments Commission of Windenburg and Brindleton Bay, and the Judicial Appointments Board for Windenburg. By law, at least one of these must be a non-lawyer. This was last done in 2022 when The Right Hon Lady Keisha Unders was appointed.
There is a similar but separate commission to appoint the next President of the Supreme Court, which is chaired by one of the non-lawyer members and features another Supreme Court Justice in the place of the President.
The President and Deputy President of the Supreme Court are appointed to those roles rather than being the most senior by tenure in office.
Dathren's retirement opened up the need for a new Justice, and President.
In a clearly pre-planned move, both commissions released joint statements signaling Dathren's retirement was not a surprise. The commission to appoint a new President selected Deputy President, Lady Ruth Allen Ginsburg, to fill the soon-to-be vacancy. They then selected Lord Arthur Roberts to be the next Deputy President. Both selections were approved by the Lord Chancellor, sent to the Prime Minister last week and, yesterday, approved by the Queen.
The Independent Selection Commission met over the past three weeks and selected Sir Lloyd Stephens to fill to upcoming Justice vacancy. They notified the Lord Chancellor of its choice who then approved the commission's selection. The Prime Minister recommend Stephens to the Queen for appointment last week, which was also approved yesterday.
Welcoming the announcement, current President of the Supreme Court, The Right Hon The Lord Charles Dathren of Allameda said:
"Although he arrives as I depart, I am delighted to welcome Lord Justice Stephens as a Justice to the Supreme Court. He will bring exceptional experience and ability to the Court following a distinguished career as a barrister and Judge. His experience in employment law, tax, public law and criminal law will be highly valuable to the Supreme Court and will further strengthen us as a Sims world-leading Court."
So, who is the (soon-to-be) new Associate Justice?
Sir Lloyd Stephens, styled The Hon. Mr Lloyd Stephens, is a judge of the High Court of Justice of the Courts of Windenburg and Brindleton Bay. He was counsel to the Leverton Inquiry.
He was educated at King's College School, a private fee paying school for boys in Brambledon in South West Easton. He won an Open Scholarship to New College, Stafford, where he obtained a first in jurisprudence.
Lloyd was called to the Bar at Middle Simple in 1985. From 1999 to 2001 he was one of the Junior Counsel to the Crown (Common Law). He was appointed King's Counsel in 2001. He was a recorder from 2002 to 2014 and was approved to sit as a deputy High Court judge.
He was counsel to the Leverton Inquiry into phone-hacking and media ethics, when he came to public attention due to televising and other reporting.
On 4 June 2017, he was appointed a High Court judge, receiving the customary knighthood in the 2017 Special Honors, and was assigned to the King's Bench Division.
In December 2020 he presided over a challenge made against the Government by Sims of the Earth that the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) document issued July 2020 was unlawful because it should have been reviewed for its impacts on the simvironment.
Stephens will take up appointment as a Justice of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom on 9 December 2024, taking the judicial courtesy title of Lord Stephens.
New judges appointed to the Supreme Court after its creation do not necessarily receive peerages. Following a Royal Warrant dated 22 September 2008, all Justices of the Supreme Court of the United Kingdom not holding a peerage are entitled to the judicial courtesy title of Lord or Lady and retain this style for life.
The palace has not yet released a date as to when the new Justice will meet the Queen.

Police are urgently searching for a man after two women were shot dead and a 1-year-old boy was abducted in Washington State before possibly fleeing toward the Mexico border on Monday, authorities said.
Elias Huizar, 39, a former police officer, is “armed and considered dangerous, and is likely to commit more crimes,” Washington State Patrol said. He was due to appear in court on Monday on charges of child rape, according to KNDU, NBC News’ affiliate in the Tri-Cities Area.
Police identified him as a person of interest after a woman was shot dead at the end of the school day at Wiley Elementary School in West Richland, in Benton County Washington.
West Richland Police Department said in a statement that officers were called at 3.23 p.m. Monday and that “one adult female was pronounced deceased at the scene outside of the school.” The victim was not identified.
The shooter fled the scene and no one else was injured as the school was placed in lockdown, police said, adding that at this point it was thought to be an isolated incident.
But later on Monday night police said the body of a second woman was found at Huizar’s home after they had obtained a search warrant. No information was given about the woman except that she was “a known associate of the suspect.”
Washington State Patrol put out an amber alert for Roman Huizar, described as 2 feet in height, with brown hair and brown eyes.
Elias Huizar is described as 5ft 6in with brown hair and brown eyes and was driving a Silver 2009 Toyota Corolla. The alert said he was “possibly headed to Mexico” and urged anyone who sees him to call 911.
The relationship between Huizar and the missing child was not immediately clear.
He appeared in court on Feb. 15 accused with child rape, where a lawyer entered a not-guilty plea on his behalf.
Court documents seen by KNDU said that Huizar is alleged to have sexually assaulted a teenager while she was sleeping in his home in February this year. This was witnessed and reported by another teenager, the documents say.
No-contact orders were issued for the alleged victims in the case, who were described as teenagers, meaning Huizar can’t go within 1,000 feet of their schools, homes or workplaces, or have any contact with minors under 16.
Prosecuting attorney Anita Petra told the February hearing that this order would ban contact between Huizar and his own child.
The Yakima Police Department told KNDU that Huizar was an officer there from 2013 to 2022.

How to hire the best attorney for domestic violence arrest defense in Richland?
If you are charged with a domestic violence arrest defense in Richland, you may face serious penalties; however, it is vital to remember that being suspected of a crime is not the same as being convicted of one. While it is natural to feel concerned and anxious following an arrest, you should speak with a domestic violence arrest defense in Richland as soon as possible to begin planning your case.
Potential domestic violence arrest defense in Richland
Like in other criminal cases, the burden of proof is on the accuser in a domestic violence arrest case. Domestic assault and battery, or a comparable felony involving abuse of a family or household members, must be shown by the prosecution.
Your attorney will carefully listen to you and do a comprehensive investigation into the problem in order to prepare your case. If they do, they'll be able to figure out the best defence strategy for your case. The following are some possible counter-arguments:
Self-defence or defence of others:
You have the right to use reasonable force to halt an assault if you are protecting yourself or another family member or household member. It's worth noting that you can't claim self-defence if you began or escalated the conflict.
False accusations or a never-ending storey:
Someone in your family may falsely accuse you of domestic abuse for a variety of reasons. You have a good chance of being acquitted if your defence attorney can establish that your accuser made up a false claim, which might be demonstrated in part by differences in the accuser's account about what transpired.
You have a good reason:
This is a rather simple defence. You will have decreased the evidence against you if you can show that you were not there at the alleged incident or that you were not involved in any violence. Your alibi might be other people who can attest to the fact that you were with them at the time of the alleged incident. Other members of your family or home might possibly testify that you were not involved in the occurrence.
Insufficient evidence:
In other situations, the prosecution just lacks sufficient evidence to build a strong case against you. Your lawyer will look over the prosecutor's evidence and question any "evidence" that doesn't add up.
Even if the alleged victim recants their claims (i.e., notifies the police, prosecutor, and/or court that their allegations of domestic violence are false), Massachusetts law requires the state to prosecute the case. Recantation is not synonymous with a lack of evidence. Even yet, while changing the account regarding the circumstances of the crime may undermine the accuser's credibility, recanting previous charges may help your case.
Begin preparing for domestic violence arrest defense in Richland as soon as you can
A domestic violence arrest defense in Richland, as previously said, is likely to cause you a tremendous deal of concern. Rather than allowing your concern to paralyse you, you should immediately contact a Richland domestic violence arrest defence attorney. Furthermore, the lawyer you select should be someone who will listen to you and treat you like a person rather than a number.
The most prominent domestic violence arrest defence attorney in Richland, John P.M. Rutan, is ready to assist you with your case. As a domestic violence arrest defence lawyer in Richland, I will fight for you to get the charges against you dropped by the state.

Lawyers petition the Supreme Court to reverse a judge's decision to keep Murdaugh imprisoned. WCBD – RICHLAND COUNTY, S.C. – Alex Murdaugh's attorneys have petitioned the South Carolina Supreme Court to reverse a judgment that would keep their client incarcerated.

A man arrested following Saturday's South Carolina mall shooting in which nine people were wounded had opened fire in self-defense in a confrontation with other shooters, his lawyer said Sunday.
The man, identified as 22-year-old Jewayne Price, has been released under house arrest and ordered to wear an ankle monitor after a judge set a $25,000 surety bond.
Police booked Price on suspicion of unlawful possession of a pistol after questioning him, the Columbia Police Department said. While police have not formally alleged he was a shooter Saturday, he was barred by Bond Court at the Alvin S. Glenn Detention Center Sunday from contacting victims of the attack, Columbia police said on Twitter.
Price was one of three detained as "people of interest" for questioning, Columbia Police Chief W. H. “Skip” Holbrook said Saturday. The two others weren't involved and were released, police said in a statement released overnight.
Investigators believe a fight between people who knew one another led to the gunfire, and that "at least three suspects displayed firearms inside the mall," according to the statement.
The chief said Saturday that preliminary information leads detectives to believe at least two people opened fire. The number of shooters, however, was yet to be officially determined.
According to coverage from NBC affiliate WIS, counsel for the defense J. Todd Rutherford said outside the detention center in Columbia on Sunday that his client opened fire in self-defense after two people connected to Facebook threats against him started shooting first.
"It was unprovoked by him," Rutherford said, according to the station. "He called the police, turned himself in, turned over the firearm that was used in this, and gave a statement to the Columbia Police Department. That is why he got a $25,000 bond.”
The defendant has cooperated with police, he said. The weapon in question is legally registered to Price, but the attorney said he did not have a concealed weapon permit for carrying it in his clothing in public.
Rutherford is also a state representative from Columbia, a Democrat who is one of multiple sponsors of a bill that could reduce penalties for carrying a concealed weapon without a permit from a minimum fine of $1,000, along with a maximum sentence of a year behind bars, to a $200 fine on first offense.
Even as President Joe Biden last week announced tougher gun regulations in the wake of multiple mass shootings, a movement to make it easier for Americans to carry weapons openly or concealed has swept states with Republicans in key positions of power.
Just like other states, South Carolina has seen a rash of multiple-victim shootings, sometimes with multiple shooters, in recent years.
On Sunday, the Richland County Sheriff's Department, which polices the county that includes Columbia, said Price had been charged in the 2018 with "accessory before the fact" in connection with the murder that year of 17-year-old Amon Rice.
The disposition of that case was not revealed by the department
Older remarks by Sheriff Leon Lott suggested that Price, presumed innocent, was part of a “catch and release” system of justice in a state otherwise notorious for its tough-on-crime politics.
The remarks were included in the department’s Sunday statement on Price.
At a 2018 press conference announcing the arrest of 21 of 22 suspects in the church-adjacent shootout between rival groups of high schoolers that ended with Rice dead and another victim injured, Lott described the prosecution as a landmark.
“This is the largest case that we’ve ever done in Richmond County that’s involved a shooting where we were able to identify everybody that was involved in it,” the sheriff said at the time.
He blamed “teenage drama” for the violence that authorities said started with an altercation on a local high school campus and ended with both sides agreeing to meet outside a church for a confrontation.
In the aftermath, investigators counted seven guns and 58 rounds fired at the scene, Lott said in 2018. “This time it wasn’t a fistfight. It was a gunfight,” he said.
While investigators at the time were unable to determine who fatally shot Rice, the sheriff alleged that many of the defendants had opened fire and thus should be held accountable for the teen’s death. At the press conference, he did not name Price as one of them.
Rutherford, did not immediately respond to a request for his response to the gun allegation or the 2018 charge of accessory before the fact.
The shooting Saturday at Columbiana Centre injured 14 people — nine with gunshots and five who were hurt while fleeing.
Before he revised the numbers, Holbrook initially said 10 people were struck by gunfire, two of whom were critically injured, and that two others were injured while fleeing.
In addition to the nine people with gunshot wounds, other people suffered broken bones, lacerations and a head injury that was suffered while fleeing, police said Saturday night.
The victims are ages 15 to 73.
All of the injured had been treated and released except a 73-year-old woman, who remained hospitalized, Columbia police said Saturday night.
South Carolina has had a number of mass shootings over the weekend. Early Sunday, at least nine people were injured in a shooting at a club in Hampton County.
The State Law Enforcement Division, or SLED, said in an email that no deaths were reported in the Easter morning shooting in Hampton County. No information was immediately available about the severity of the injuries.
SLED said it was asked to investigate by the Hampton County Sheriff’s Office.
In January the gun violence-prevention group Moms Demand Action said rising firearms-enabled crime across the nation correlated to skyrocketing gun sales during the pandemic as well as to the relaxation of regulations, supported by the gun industry, in statehouses like South Carolina’s.
The nonprofit, which says the state has the seventh-highest rate of gun homicide in the country, said in its January statement, “Communities across South Carolina are suffering from the impacts of gun violence.”
The state last year enacted a law that allows gun owners with a concealed weapon permit to also “open carry” their firearm in public. Second Amendment advocates have long argued that communities are safer when more good citizens are armed.

The best attorney for violence arrest defense in Richland
You will face significant consequences if you are charged with a domestic violence arrest defense in Richland; however, it is important to understand that being accused of a crime is not the same as being convicted of one. While it is natural to feel stressed and anxious after an arrest, you should contact a domestic violence arrest defense attorney as soon as possible to begin planning your case.
Potential Defenses to a Richland Domestic Violence Arrest
The burden of proof is on the accuser in a domestic violence arrest case, as it is in all criminal cases. The prosecution must prove that the accused committed domestic assault and battery or a similar crime involving abuse of a family or household members.
To prepare your defense, your attorney will attentively listen to you and do a thorough study into the matter. If they do, they will be able to determine the best possible defense for your case. The following are some of the probable defenses:
Defending oneself or defending others:
If you are defending yourself or another family member or household member, you have the right to use reasonable force to stop an assault. It's important to note that you can't claim self-defense if you started the fight or made it worse.
False charges or a revolving story:
For a variety of reasons, someone in your household may falsely accuse you of domestic violence. If your defense counsel can prove that your accuser fabricated a false allegation, which might be shown in part by discrepancies in the accuser's testimony about what happened, you have a high chance of being acquitted.
You have a valid excuse:
This is a rather straightforward defense. If you can prove that you were not there during the claimed occurrence or that you were not involved in any violence, you will have lessened the case against you. Other persons who can attest to the fact that you were with them at the time of the claimed occurrence might be your alibi. It's also possible that other members of your family or household will testify that you were not engaged in the incident.
Inadequate evidence:
In other cases, the prosecution simply does not have enough evidence to establish a solid case against you. Your attorney will scrutinize the prosecutor's evidence and challenge any "evidence" that does not add up.
Even if the claimed victim recants their accusations (that is, tells the police, prosecutor, and/or court that their charges of domestic abuse are untrue), the state of Massachusetts is still required by law to pursue the case. Recantation is not the same as a lack of proof. Even yet, much as altering the story about the facts of a case may jeopardize the accuser's credibility, recanting prior accusations may strengthen your case.

Army Trainee Charged after Hijacking School Bus
An Army intern was arrested and charged with dozens of crimes after authorities said Thursday he got on a school bus in South Carolina with a gun and held the driver and elementary school students hostage before letting them get off the bus . At a news conference, Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott said the incident started around 7 a.m. near Fort Jackson, the U.S. Army's largest basic training facility in Colombia. The detainee, dressed in gym clothes, "escaped the station and escaped" with a rifle from the facility, Lott said. Members then received calls about someone standing on a nearby freeway signaling cars.
Suspect Identified
The inmate, whom Lott later identified as Jovan Collazo, then walked to the nearby bus stop where the children were waiting to be taken to Forest Lake Elementary School, Lott said, and got on the bus with a gun.

He wanted me to take him to the next town, ”said Lott. A video Lott posted at a press conference Thursday evening showed Collazo getting on the bus and yelling at the driver to close the door and drive. He was on board with the students and the driver for a total of six minutes, the sheriff said. Some of the 18 kids on the bus used cell phones to call their parents and let them know what was going on, Lott said. After several of the children repeatedly asked if Collazo intended to harm them or the driver, the apprentice "got a little frustrated" and ordered the bus to be stopped so the driver and drivers could stop. Then he rode the bus for several kilometers before putting it inside with the gun. Collazo "then wandered the neighborhoods," said Lott in search of clothes, was later discovered by MPs and arrested without incident. A spokeswoman for the Richland Two School District said the bus was carrying elementary school children. As a precautionary measure, security was tightened at several schools in the area and no one was allowed in or out of the buildings, he said. "A very scary situation this morning," Lott said of the incident, which lasted about an hour. This is at least the second high-profile incident in recent weeks that has involved a Fort Jackson-based soldier. Last month, a Fort Jackson soldier was charged with third degree assault and suspended after an online video showed him chasing a black man into his neighborhood. Lott said Collazo was in his third week of basic training at the facility. During a press conference Thursday, Brigadier General Milford H. Beagle Jr. of Fort Jackson said the apprentice was 23 years old and had no ammunition in his gun, which was supplied as part of his training. "He was a very calm person, originally from New Jersey ... and we felt like he just wanted to go home," said Beagle. The trainees took a break after breakfast when the man left the base. He's likely packed his unloaded gun as leaving it behind would warn superiors of his absence, Beagle said. "There's nothing that makes us believe ... if it has something to do with hurting others, hurting yourself, or doing anything else. Harmful activity," he added. Beagle said the incident highlighted "a material flaw in our accountability processes that I will correct in the future as the outcome could have been much worse." Collazo faces dozens of charges, including 19 kidnapping cases, as well as cases of car theft, possession of a gun on school grounds, armed robbery and gun possession during a violent crime. No lawyer was mentioned in the court records and he was held in prison on Thursday afternoon. Beagle said the military could also take disciplinary action of their own, including allegations of unauthorized absence and theft of a weapon on the base. Read the full article

Land Of The Giants
I had the privilege to sit on a panel discussing bar discipline transparency at the Austin Texas meeting of the National Organization of Bar Counsel.
As the odd blogger on a panel of disciplinary administrators, I came to sing the praises of the Ohio Supreme Court web page.
Richard Dove, Director of the Ohio Board of Professional Conduct , gave the group an understanding of the effort that goes into creating and maintaining a truly open system of lawyer regulation.
My hope is that the discussion will trickle back to the jurisdictions and inspire some thinking on the implementation of reasonable and ready access to lawyer discipline records.
