Welcome to the world of magistracy, where justice is served, decisions are made, and lives are impacted. In this book, we will embark on a journey through the intricacies of magistracy, exploring the diverse cases, ethical considerations, impact on individuals and communities, challenges, rewards, and the significance of this vital role in the United Kingdom's justice system. Magistrates hold a position of great responsibility, entrusted with the task of dispensing justice and upholding the rule of law. They preside over a wide range of cases, from minor offences to more serious matters, making decisions that can shape the lives of individuals and the well-being of the community. Their role requires a delicate balance of fairness, impartiality, and integrity, as they navigate the complexities of the legal system. In this book, we will delve into the diverse cases that magistrates handle, ranging from criminal offences to civil disputes. We will explore the ethical considerations that guide their decision-making process, such as fairness, impartiality, and integrity. Understanding these principles is crucial in ensuring that justice is served and public trust is maintained.

This book examines access to justice in summary criminal proceedings by considering the ability of defendants to play an active and effective role in the process. 'Access to justice' refers not just to the availability of legally aided representation, but also to the ability of defendants to understand and effectively participate in summary criminal proceedings more generally. It remains a vital principle of justice that justice should not only be done, but should also be seen to be done by all participants in the process. The book is based on socio-legal research. The study is ethnographic, based on observation conducted in four magistrates' courts in South East England and interviews with both defence lawyers and Crown prosecutors. Setting out an argument that defendants have always been marginalised through particular features of magistrates' court proceedings (such as courtroom layout and patterns of behaviour among the professional workgroups in court), the political climate in relation to defendants and access to justice that has persisted since 2010 has further undermined the ability of defendants to play an active role in the process. Ultimately, this book argues that recent governments have demanded ever more efficiency and cost saving in criminal justice. In that context, principles that contribute to access to justice for defendants have been seriously undermined.

Sweeping changes are being introduced into the lower-tier magistrates’ courts in England and Wales in efforts to modernise the system and speed up case processing. They concentrate on delivering prompt justice within a modern, efficient and technologically advanced system. But these transformations are fundamentally changing the way justice is delivered. This book analyses criminal court streamlining processes and argues that there are areas where due process protections are being undermined. Transforming Summary Justice reports empirical research carried out with lay magistrates and criminal justice professionals. Views and experiences drawn from magistrates are valuable because of the central role they perform in lower court justice. Further, magistrates provide a wider understanding of the context in which the lower criminal courts operate and enable a critical appraisal of this unique style of ‘lay justice’. This book is directed at students of criminology, criminal justice and socio-legal studies, who will find the debates stimulating and useful to engage with in contemporary analyses of criminal court justice. It will also be of interest to justice and legal professionals who are seeing swingeing alterations to the field in which they work. The book will have appeal in other common-law jurisdictions, where similar modifications to lower court justice are occurring, and also across Europe, where lay involvement in legal decision-making is being debated and becoming accepted practice.
