Candidates must have five years’ post-qualification legal experience and are expected to have at least 15 sitting days as a judge or in a quasi-judicial capacity. District judges sit in a range of civil and family cases such as divorces, child proceedings, damages claims, injunctions and insolvency proceedings.
