Joseph Hector Garrick (Sydney, New South Wales, 8 December 1846[1] — 23 February 1908[2]), was an Australian lawyer who served as a judge on the benches of the Kingdom of Viti, the first Fijian nation-state.[3] Having arrived in 1873, Garrick was associated with the events leading up to the cession of the islands to the United Kingdom in 1874.[4]
Following cession, Garrick was appointed Chief Police Magistrate and Registrar General on 1 September 1875.[5] He went on to serve as Attorney General of Fiji from 25 November 1876[6] to 1882.
After retiring from government service, he continued to practice Law privately in Levuka, and was still doing so as of 1889.[7]
Garrick was born in Sydney to James Francis Garrick and his wife Catherine Eliza Branson, both formerly of London.[8] He was a younger brother to the New Zealand politician Francis James Garrick[9] and the Queensland politician James Francis Garrick.
Garrick married Emily Constance Agnew in Sydney, in 1868. They had two children, Hector and Constance,[10] but the marriage ended in divorce. On 22 July 1880, Garrick was co-respondent in a divorce suit initiated by barrister William Scott, who accused Garrick of having committed adultery with his wife, Emma Elizabeth Scott, née Milne. The court granted Scott's suit and £1000 damages.[11] [12] Garrick subsequently remarried to Milne in Sydney 1881; he had two more children with her — Godfrey Ernest and Gladys Neville.[13]
Garrick died 23 February 1908.
