not from the highland
but born and bred in Adelaide
….this is Margaret Nyland.
fondly known as ‘Judge‘
by her colleagues
she put at ease
the nick name stuck and won’t budge
she refers to them happily
as her family.
After 19 years as a Judge for the SA Supreme Court
retirement was sought…
but alas, a retirement disorder
a high responsibility was in order
for this law practitioner
to be the royal commissioner
into the child protection system
that had too many errors to list them.
after a two year process,
the 850 page report went to press
the report hit a raw nerve
with the content and title
….’the life they deserve‘
