Default Justice of the Peace? Sydney

Hi All,

Does anyone know of a justice of the peace in the Sydney area? My girlfriend needs some documents verifying as part of a never-ending registration process to teach. The list we found seems to be old with the names no longer holding the jp position.

Cheers.

Two hours south of Sydney, but my good friend is a JP, if it helps. Nice day out if you've never been down to the South Coast.

Cheers Hutch - think girlfriend is now resigned to camping outside the department of education headquarters.

You're right though - it's a nice day out. Some great surf around Jervis Bay

Have you looked at the official register? Here: http://jp.lawlink.nsw.gov.au/public/welcomePublic.do

You just need to put your postcode in and dozens of names come up. There are 87 listed for my postcode alone.

Bizarrely an awful lot of pharmacists are JP's here - don't ask me why. I was told this by an Aussie & certainly in my area 3 of the 5 pharmacies locally have JP's working there. Hope this is of some help.

Great information guys.

The names that the register gives seems out of date as OH tried calling a couple and they had retired as JPs.

I tried a pharmacy in CBD but they didn't have a JP, but it definitely seems worth trying the pharmacies here in Milsons Point.

..And if that fails we can just go to the Estate Agents in Coogee which would be a perfect excuse to drag the OH to the beach so that I can go for a dip

Hiya

Just ring up your local council as they often have one in the chambers and you can get docs signed no problems.

"justice of the peace" such a cool name for a boring thing
Sounds like someone who rides around on horse back killing evil people :curse:
