Judges make their way to the Palace of W

Judges make their way to the Palace of Westminster in central London to mark the start of the new legal year in England and Wales, on October 1, 2009. British constitutional history was made Thursday as judges in a new Supreme Court were sworn in, replacing the House of Lords as Britain's highest appeal tribunal. Ending an ancient judicial quirk, 11 new Justices took their oaths of office in the new Supreme Court of the United Kingdom, housed in a gothic building just across from the Houses of Parliament.
