“The recent high profile arrest of a part-time recorder, Constance Briscoe, in connection with the Vicki Pryce trial gives me a tenuous topical link to judicial discipline and nineteenth century case of Sir Jonah Barrington, still the only High Court judge to have been dismissed from office. Disciplinary proceedings against a judge are relatively rare and dismissal of a permanent salaried judge is almost unheard of.”
