Welcome to a special "recorded live" episode of the wigs!
The Wigs were invited to attend and live record an episode at the Australian Criminal Law Congress 2023 in Byron Bay. Emmanuel and Jim were unfortunately unavailable, so Felicity and Stephen teamed up with guest wig NSW Public Defender Paul Coady to live record the episode before an audience of lawyers from across Australia. The topic for the episode is "Reform of public criminal prosecutions in Australia, the Sofronoff Inquiry and its aftermath". Felicity Stephen and Paul discuss the key issues and findings of the inquiry and work through what its implications might be. The Conference was hosted by Hugo Law and the keynote speaker was Justice Edelman of the High Court of Australia. A big thank you to Hugo Law and particularly Karen Espinar for reaching out with the invitation. The conference was a big success and The Wigs encourage listeners to consider the conference in future years. A big thanks also to Paul Coady for being a guest wig. A bit about Paul. He began his legal career as a commercial solicitor at Clayton Utz, but turned toward criminal law after an internship with the Innocence Project in New Orleans. He has been at the NSW Bar since 2008 and was appointed a public defender in 2018.
