Family Court: What's gone wrong with a key part of our legal system?

While we’re on our summer break, The Front Page is taking a look back at some of the biggest news stories and top rated episodes from the podcast this year.   No family ever expects to find themselves in court – but for thousands in Aotearoa, that is the reality they find themselves in.  In August, the NZ Herald ran a series on the Family Court, poring through the case files and talking to those at the coalface of a part of our legal system that is under crisis.   Herald senior writer Jane Phare discussed what she had learnt about a system that some have described as a “warzone”.  New episodes return January 15th.   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
