The following week, on Thursday 28 February, there is a further "So you want to be..." seminar, on the work of a judicial assistant to the UK Supreme Court. A team from the court will speak to members on life as a judicial assistant to the Justices. The court is currently recruiting temporary posts, assisting the Justices by carrying out research in connection with appeals and summarising applications for permission to appeal. The event is hosted by the Society of Solicitors of the Supreme Court in Scotland (SSC) in their lounge, access to which is via Parliament House, 11 Parliament Square, Edinburgh. The event begins at 6pm and refreshments will follow in the SSC Library. Click here to register.
