It follows shortly after a state-wide report was released that revealed a magistrate had inappropriately texted a practitioner. Early in May, the Honourable Anne Vanstone QC began to investigate a series of “preliminary examinations of complaints” about the conduct of a serving magistrate, who has not been named. The magistrate has denied impropriety.
