Lord Chief Justice Lord Judge has announced he will retire next September, with his replacement set to be named in early 2013.
The announcement was made today (21 November) after Lord Judge wrote to the Lord Chancellor informing him of his decision.
He will step down after nearly five years in the role, having first been appointed in October 2008 when he replaced recently retired Supreme Court president Lord Phillips of Worth Matravers.
