The courts of New Zealand, in common with many others, function in a changeable environment where predicting the future is difficult. During these times, our interconnection, our unity of purpose, and our support of one another is critical, and so through our objects, we look to make connections at home and abroad.

JANZ will always find ways to support the resilience of judges and our families. The relentless nature of the work, the emotional demands that are made of judges, and the stress of this year must have taken its toll on you.

This month, the members’ section is very full of helpful posts. From webinars on how to run zoom meetings, to movies to watch at home. You’ll find analysis of of the RBNZ financial stability report through to travel advice and home journeying.

JANZ is mostly about unity and care for judges and their families. There are some 250 judges now and JANZ encourages you to get to know your brothers and sisters in the law.

The Judge’s Association of New Zealand (JANZ) was formed with the generous support of founding members and incorporated.
