Earlier this month it was announced by the Attorney General, Senator the Honourable George Brandis QC, that Judge Anne Demack will commence as the new permanent Federal Circuit Court Judge in Rockhampton. The appointment of a permanent Federal Circuit Court Judge in Rockhampton is said to benefit Central Queensland residents.
Previously, Central Queensland residents with Family Law matters faced long waiting periods or had to travel to Brisbane or Townsville. The appointment of Judge Demack is said to relieve delays and costs for those requiring the Court’s assistance.
Judge Demack will circuit to Mackay and other regional centres as required and is due to sit in Mackay on 4 April 2016.
Macrossan and Amiet welcomes Judge Demack to the region.
