Filling a complaint
If you have concerns about the conduct of a federally appointed judge, you can lodge a written complaint about the judge in question. We are committed to carefully assessing each complaint, and we can assure you that the Council will consider all aspects of your complaint: your point of view, that of the judge and the interest of the public.
