He is retiring from his role at Nottingham Crown Court
Nottingham's outgoing top judge has joked that his 30 years working in the city's legal system has seen him outlast 36 Forest managers. "Hugely respected, fair and courteous" Gregory Dickinson QC made the quip at a ceremony at Nottingham Crown Court to commemorate his retirement.
Judge Dickinson said: "For 30 years I have loved the people involved in the justice system here. There's a fantastic spirit and that revolutionary spirit that's always part of Nottingham folk."It is the only role I have ever wanted and it has been such a privilege. In the time I have been here, Nottingham Forest have had 36 managers, luckily it's not so easy to sack resident judges. I care passionately about the work that you do.
The valedictory - as the farewell ceremony is called - heard how Judge Dickinson began his law career in 1981, initially working in Leicester. He came to work in Nottingham in 1992 at the firm No.1 High Pavement chambers, was appointed a Queen's Counsel in 2002, became a circuit judge in 201,2 and for the last four years has been the Honorary Recorder of Nottingham - making him the city's top judge.
He said: "The mark of an absolutely superb resident judge is what happens when something goes wrong and on March 23, 2020, something went very wrong. He galvanised the team around him and the truly exceptional court staff here. Cometh the hour, cometh the man."
