Former Lord Chief Justice Igor Judge will speak at an event on the state of court coverage in the press, hosted by the Society of Editors.

The seminar, titled Crisis In Our Courts – And How to Solve it, will be held at the Telegraph’s offices. It will also feature talks by John Whittingdale MP and Society of Editors executive director Ian Murray.

It is being held to launch an initiative to explore ways in which coverage of courts in the UK can be dramatically improved.
