Association of Magisterial Officers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Association of Magisterial Officers (AMO) was a trade union representing workers in magistrates' courts in the United Kingdom.

The union was founded in 1975, and later affiliated to the Trades Union Congress.[1] By 2002, it had 6,344 members.[2] In 2005, it merged into the Public and Commercial Services Union, which at the time represented slightly fewer court staff.[3]
