Early lifeEames was born in Melbourne in 1945. He was educated at St. Bernard's College in Essendon, then studied law at the University of Melbourne, graduating with a Bachelor of Laws.[1] CareerEames did articles at the firm of Slater and Gordon, and was admitted to the Victorian Bar in 1969.[1] In the 1970s he joined the Central Australian Legal Service as its principle Solicitor, and was then seconded to the Central Land Council in Alice Springs where he pioneered all early land claims made under the Aboriginal Land Rights Act, Northern Territory, 1976 and the passage of the legislation itself, before heading to the bar in Darwin. In 1980, he was admitted to the bar in South Australia, joining the independent bar in 1984. Eames was a member of Hanson Chambers from 1987 to 1991, and took silk as a Queen's Counsel in South Australia in 1989 and in Victoria in 1990. During this time he worked as a barrister in two Royal Commissions: the McClelland Royal Commission (1985) into British nuclear testing in Australia, and the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody (1987–1991).[1] Supreme Court of VictoriaOn 26 May 1992, Eames was appointed as a judge of the Supreme Court of Victoria. On 15 March 2002 he was appointed a judge of the Court of Appeal and served until 2007.[3] Supreme Court of the Northern TerritoryEames was appointed as an Acting Judge of the Supreme Court of the Northern Territory between 2007 and 2009.[4][5] Supreme Court of NauruIn December 2010, Eames was appointed Chief Justice of the two-member Supreme Court of Nauru. In January 2014, the Chief Magistrate of Nauru, Peter Law, issued an injunction to prevent the deportation of three foreign nationals. Law was fired by Nauru President Baron Waqa and himself deported. Eames, in Australia at the time, issued an injunction to prevent the deportation of Law, however Law was deported. The Nauru government cancelled Eames' visa which prevented his return to Nauru,[6] and he resigned two months later.[7] The incidents involving Law and Eames were criticised by Mathew Batsiua a member of Nauru's Opposition and precipitated a government crackdown on opposition.[8] Publications{{Citation | author1=Eames, Geoff | author2=Rubuntja, Wenten | author3=Society of Labor Lawyers (Victoria) | title=Land rights or a sell out? : an analysis of the Aboriginal land rights (Northern Territory) bill, 1976 | publication-date=1976 | publisher=[Melbourne] Victorian Fabian Society and Society of Labor Lawyers (Victoria) by arrangement with the Central Australian Land Rights Bulletin | year=1976 | isbn=978-0909953126}}References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite book|last1=Emerson|first1=John|title=History of the Independent Bar of South Australia|date=2006|publisher=Papinian Publishing|isbn=086396835X}} 2. ^{{cite news|title=Nauru Chief Justice, Australian Geoffrey Eames, resigns |url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-03-13/an-former-nauru-chief-justice-australian-geoffrey-eames-resigns/5317008 |accessdate=30 April 2017 |work=ABC News |date=13 March 2014 |language=en-AU}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Past judges and associate judges|url=http://www.supremecourt.vic.gov.au/home/about+the+court/our+judiciary/past+judges+and+associate+judges/|publisher=Supreme Court of Victoria|accessdate=30 April 2017}} 4. ^1 {{cite web |title=The Honourable Geoffrey Michael Eames |url=http://www.supremecourt.nt.gov.au/about/judges/eames.htm |website=Supreme Court |accessdate=3 March 2019}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.barristersclerk.com.au/078.htm |title=Geoffrey M (The Hon) Eames QC |website=Meldrum & Hyland list |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131007035620/http://www.barristersclerk.com.au/078.htm |archivedate=7 October 2013 |df= }} 6. ^{{cite news |url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-01-20/nauru-sacks-deports-australian-magistrate-chief-justice/5207600 |title=Nauru expels Australian magistrate Peter Law, bars chief justice Geoffrey Eames from returning to country |website=ABC News |date=20 January 2014 |access-date=3 March 2019}} 7. ^{{cite news|title=Nauru Chief Justice, Australian Geoffrey Eames, resigns |url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-03-13/an-former-nauru-chief-justice-australian-geoffrey-eames-resigns/5317008 |accessdate=30 April 2017 |work=ABC News |date=13 March 2014 |language=en-AU}} 8. ^{{cite web |title=Nauru opposition MPs still in limbo over suspensions |url=http://www.radionz.co.nz/international/programmes/datelinepacific/audio/20142835/nauru-opposition-mps-still-in-limbo-over-suspensions |website=Radio New Zealand |date=24 July 2014 |access-date=3 March 2019}} {{start box}}{{s-legal}}{{succession box | title=Chief Justice of Nauru | before=Robin Millhouse | after=Joni Madraiwiwi| years=2010–2014}}{{s-end}}{{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Eames, Geoffrey}} 11 : 1945 births|Living people|Judges of the Supreme Court of Victoria|Judges of the Supreme Court of the Northern Territory|Chief Justices of Nauru|Australian judges on the courts of Nauru|20th-century Australian judges|21st-century Australian judges|Australian Queen's Counsel|Australian barristers|Members of the Order of Australia |
