Yesterday Margaret, along with other members of the Justice Committee, met with Judge Victoria Pratt, former Chief Judge of Newark Municipal Court, Newark, New Jersey and Judge Ginger Learner-Wren, County Court Judge, Broward County, Florida.
The reason for the meeting was to discuss lessons Scotland can learn from the innovative work Justices Pratt and Learner-Wren are delivering through their pioneering use of community courts and procedural justice, and mental health courts in the USA.
