What is a Stipendiary Magistrate?
1 Answers
And what is a circuit bench?
ie. What does HH Judge Phillip Wassall at the bottom do? Is he a regular magistrate? Would he travel from court to court when needed?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Wassall is a Circuit Judge, not a magistrate. He sits at courts within his 'circuits' so he does travel from court to court.
His Circuit is Devon and Cornwall.
A stipendiary magistrate is a paid magistrate with proper legal training and are now called district judges. They can hear cases alone, unlike magistrates which need three.
