Exclusive: Move comes as issue of membership of organisation that bars women is being taken seriously at highest levels of judiciary
At least four senior judges have resigned from the men-only Garrick Club, the Judicial Office has said, as men in the legal profession come under increasing pressure over their close association with an organisation that has repeatedly blocked attempts to allow women to join.
The office confirmed that the appeal court judge Keith Lindblom and the high court judges Nicholas Cusworth, Nicholas Lavender and Ian Dove had resigned.
