I believe that when Bill Mitchell was Acting Chief District Court Judge, he declined the permanent position saying, he preferred to be sitting with the people. As a District Court Judge, he was outstanding. John Clearwater Lawyer Takapuna North Shore
Judge Bill Mitchell was a wonderful person, a gentleman and a very special judge. He served his community well and was Acting Chief District Judge at one time. He will be fondly remembered by the lawyers and staff at the North Shore District Court. " The Court is now adjourned." William J. Spring Notary and Lawyer. Takapuna.
A kind and genuine friend, and a wise, special and respected District Court judge for 29 years. Russell Callander
