Honorable Judge Will Be Retired Next Year


Justice Michael Kirby of the High Court of Australia will be retired from the bench next year. Why should we, all Australians, be proud of having the honorable Judge among us?

Well, in a democracy such as Australia and in certain circumstances; there is always a possibility to have an infamous political times, such as the Howard's era. An extraordinary political environment of the era shed light over role of the High Court of Australia and its judges; the role of protecting the Constitution, rule of law, citizen’s rights and the society in general from tyrannical actions of rulers.

It is when we, Australians, need judges like the honorable Justice Kirby at the bench of the High Court of Australia.

And now, regardless of his honor being at the bench or retired, it is a great honor to live in a country where his honor lives as a citizen.

Best wishes and regards to his honor.
