From 2 to 13 November 2026, the Supreme Court of Queensland will undertake a judicial exchange with the Supreme Court of South Australia.
During the two weeks, Justice Brown of the Supreme Court of Queensland, will sit in South Australia while Justice Doyle of the South Australian Court of Appeal will act as a judge in Queensland.
The Judicial Exchange Program is an opportunity for the judges to examine practices for listing, managing and hearing matters in other State jurisdictions through firsthand experience of sitting in those jurisdictions and also sitting with judges from other jurisdictions in Queensland.
It is a practical means for professional development of judges, as well as improving efficiencies in the administration of the jurisdiction, to the benefit of the courts involved in the exchange, court users and the community more broadly.
