The journal's most popular column is ‘Sit down Girlie’ which presents snippets on legal issues from a feminist viewpoint — with a touch of humour. Acknowledgments are due to a certain Registrar of the Family Court of Australia for the title of this column. A solicitor who was appearing before him was waiting patiently for a male colleague to finish addressing the JR. Assuming he had completed his submission she rose to her feet — prematurely it appears — and the JR roared ‘Sit down girlie’! If you have any legal anecdotes relevant to this column please send them to the Managing Editor. A collection of 'Sit down Girlie' columns from 1991-2006 can be ordered below (for delivery by post: $15.40).  | Add to cart |  |
