5  Service in more than one judicial office
 (1) For the purposes of this Act, a Judge is taken not to have retired so long as he or she continues:
 (a) to hold any office as a Judge; or
 (b) to hold any judicial office in relation to a Territory that is remunerated otherwise than on a part‑time basis.
 (2) Where, during any period (whether before or after the commencement of this Act), a person has held two or more offices as a Judge, his or her service during that period shall be taken into account for the purposes of this Act in the same way as if, during that period, he or she had held one office as a Judge only.
 (3) To avoid doubt, a person may satisfy the definition of Judge at a particular time even if the person also holds, at the same time, an office as a Judge of the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (Division 2).
Note: See paragraph (a) of the definition of Judge in subsection 4(1).
