Abstract

The participation of women as advocates before the High Court of Australia has never been higher. Nonetheless, female barristers are still underrepresented in appearances and in speaking roles before the nation's highest court. This article continues the empirical study of female barristers before the High Court. It conducts an analysis of appearances before the High Court in 2019 to present a statistical overview of the rate at which women are appearing and speaking before the High Court.
