The onset of the Covid-19 Pandemic in 2020 and the resultant safety restrictions had an unprecedented impact on the lives of the general public. However, although it might have felt like the world had ground to a halt, life had to continue. The Judiciary and Criminal Justice System in England and Wales had to continue to operate to ensure that justice was served but with the added task of ensuring the safety of all those involved. This article is a compilation of reflective contributions from members of the Judiciary and Criminal Justice System highlighting the challenges faced and how they had to adapt in these times of crisis. It reflects the personal experiences of each contributor and provides a very unique insight into how the Business and Property Courts, the Crown Court and Prosecution Service and Family Court adapted to the “new reality” brought about by the Pandemic.
