Lord Neuberger has been sworn in as the new president of the Supreme Court, becoming only the second head of the refashioned incarnation of the UK's top court.
Neuberger has replaced Lord Phillips, the senior Law Lord who became the first president of the Supreme Court when the body was created in October 2009 in place of the House of Lords' appellate committee.
Phillips retired from the Court at the end of September, with the then Master of the Rolls Lord Neuberger in July being confirmed as his replacement. Supreme Court judge Lord Dyson was in August named as Neuberger's successor as Master of the Rolls.
