Rejected petition Request that Richard mansell QC is removed from his post as a judge.

Richard mansell QC spared a man who abused his wife , a prison sentence, this is an insult to victims of domestic violence and could stop similar victims coming forward due to the judges lenient attitude. I believe he should be relieved of his position with immediate effect.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about honours or appointments.

We can't accept petitions about appointments.

In any case, sentences are the responsibility of the courts, which are independent of the Government and Parliament.

Anyone can ask the Attorney General to review a sentence they think is too low, and only one person needs to ask for a sentence to be reviewed. You can find out how to do that here:

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
