SUPREME COURT PROFILES

The Honourable Chief Justice P de Jersey AC

Resigned 8 July 2014

The Honourable Chief Justice Paul de Jersey AC was born in Brisbane and educated at the Church of England Grammar School. He won a Commonwealth Scholarship to the University of Queensland, where he earned his Bachelor of Arts in 1969 and Bachelor of Laws (with Honours) in 1971. He served in the Queensland University Regiment from 1966 to 1971, attaining commissioned rank in 1969. In 1971, during his last year of law studies, he served as Associate to Sir Charles Wanstall, Chief Justice of Queensland (1977–82).

The Chief Justice was called to the Bar on 16 December 1971 and took silk on 12 November 1981. During his pre-judicial career, he appeared as a barrister in all Queensland courts as well as the High Court of Australia. He also appeared twice in London before the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council.

On 4 February 1985, at the age of 36, he was appointed a judge of the Supreme Court of Queensland. Over the next 29 years, he continued his career of service in multiple capacities. He served as a Commercial Causes Judge (1986–89), the judge constituting the Mental Health Tribunal (1994–96), and as president of the Queensland Industrial Court (1996–97). Additionally, he served as chair of the Supreme Court Library Committee (1988–93) and on the Queensland Law Reform Commission (1996–99).

The then Justice de Jersey also served in many extra-judicial roles. He was a member of the council of the Anglican Church Grammar School (Churchie) (1990–97) and the Chapter of St John’s Cathedral (from 1989). He served as chancellor of the Anglican Diocese of Brisbane (from 1991), chair of the Queensland Cancer Fund (1994–2001), vice president (1995–98) and then president (1994–2001) of the Australian Cancer Society, and trustee of the National Breast Cancer Foundation (1994–97). From 2012 to 2014, he was a member of the Independent Commission on the Future of Policing (UK), and from 2006 to 2014, he chaired the Judicial Section of the Law Association of Asia and the Pacific.

On 17 February 1998, Justice de Jersey was appointed the 17th Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Queensland. At his swearing-in, he signalled his support for the regional practice of law and undertook to visit the court centres outside Brisbane on a regular basis. He thus presided over many circuit sittings throughout Queensland, including Mt Isa, Longreach, Roma, Toowoomba, Cairns, Townsville, Mackay, Rockhampton, Bundaberg, Maryborough, and Southport. He was also the first Queensland Chief Justice to conduct a murder trial in Longreach, where he had lived as a child. The Chief Justice’s sittings on the circuits were remarked upon by the Queensland Law Society as demonstrating ‘a real

Page 7: Queensland Legal Yearbook 2014

QUEENSLAND LEGAL YEARBOOK 2014

LEGAL PERSONALIA | Page 441

affinity for practice in the regions’ and as showing ‘many instances of uncelebrated leadership.’

The Chief Justice saw the court through a period of rapid technological change. In 2012, he oversaw the metropolitan courts’ move from the courthouse at 304 George Street, Brisbane to the Queen Elizabeth II Courts of Law at 415 George Street, and he was instrumental at all stages of the new courthouse’s development.

As Chief Justice of Queensland, he also served as patron of many charitable legal organisations, including the Brisbane Boys’ College Indigenous Fund, the University of Queensland Pro Bono Law Centre, and other organisations directly associated with the legal profession and the delivery of legal services.

In recognition of his contribution to the Australian community, Chief Justice de Jersey was appointed a Companion of the Order of Australia in 2000, and he was awarded the Centenary Medal in 2003.

After nearly 30 years of judicial service—13 years as a judge and 16 years as Chief Justice—he resigned from the Bench on 8 July 2014 in order to take up appointment as the 26th Governor of Queensland.

The Honourable Chief Justice T Carmody

Appointed 12 June 2014

Timothy Francis Carmody was called to the Queensland Bar in 1982. He was a legal officer assisting The Commission of Inquiry into Possible Illegal Activities and Associated Police Misconduct (the Fitzgerald Inquiry) (1987– 89). From 1989 to 1991 he was a special prosecutor, conducting prosecutions of official corruption and other offences arising out of Fitzgerald Inquiry investigations.

He was junior counsel assisting the Inquiry into the Criminal Justice Commission (1996–97), a public review and evaluation of the effectiveness and overall operations of Queensland’s original anti-corruption body.

From 1998 to 2002 he was the inaugural Queensland Crime Commissioner, investigating major drug and organised crime in the State, using special coercive powers including compulsory examination of witnesses.

In 2003 he was awarded the Centenary Medal for distinguished services to the law.

In 2011, as a then silk practising at the private Bar, the Chief Justice was appointed by the Governor-General as a part-time examiner for the Australian Crime Commission to undertake and supervise the use of the Commission’s coercive powers for special operations and investigations.
