Westminster Abbey Host Their Annual Service For Judges

LONDON - OCTOBER 01: Judges wearing new robes process towards the House of Commons from Westminster Abbey on October 1, 2008 in London, England. The start of the legal year is marked with a traditional religious service in The Abbey. The judges arrive from the Royal Courts of Justice for the service followed by a procession to The Houses of Parliament where the Lord Chancellor hosts a reception. The ceremony in Westminster Abbey has roots in the religious practice of the judges praying for guidance at the start of the legal year. The custom dates back to the Middle Ages when the High Court was held in Westminster Hall. (Photo by Cate Gillon/Getty Images)
