Deputy Keeper of the Signet Jim Cormack KC WS and his fellow trustees are delighted to announce that The Right Honourable Lord Hodge, Deputy President of the UK Supreme Court, will be the Society’s guest speaker at its Annual Dinner when he will be admitted as a Fellow of the Society, marking the occasion of his retirement from the Supreme Court at the end of this year. After a distinguished career at the Bar, Lord Hodge was appointed a Senator of the College of Justice in 2005, and succeeded Lord Hope of Craighead on the UK Supreme Court in 2013. He was appointed Deputy President of the court on 20 January 2020.
We are also delighted that the Keeper of the Signet, The Right Honourable Lady Angiolini KT, is able to attend the dinner, which will be Jim Cormack’s first as Deputy Keeper.
