The Security Requirements of the Bench
Members of the judiciary cannot live in standard "open" housing. The risk of encountering defendants, witnesses, or the general public in your private space is a security compromise. Godsolve understands that judicial accommodation requires a higher tier of privacy.
Whether you are a Magistrate on rotation, a Judge requiring temporary lodging, or a Prosecutor needing a safe haven, our properties in Glenwood and Umbilo offer a secure retreat from the courthouse.
Accommodation Standards for Court Officials
- Separation from the Public — Our vetting process is rigorous. We do not house students or the general public in the same quarters as judicial officers. You can relax knowing your neighbours are vetted professionals.
- Prosecutor & Magistrate Safety — For those in the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA) or Magistracy, anonymity is often key. Our properties are discreet, with strict visitor policies that prevent unauthorized access. Review our Safe Living Standards.
- Quiet for Judgment Writing — The burden of the Bench involves significant after-hours reading and judgment writing. Our "Quiet Policy" ensures you have the silence needed to apply your mind without neighborhood noise.
- Dignified Living Conditions — We provide clean, orderly, and well-managed environments that respect the dignity of your office.
