A male lawyer who appeared in a New Zealand court dressed in an ankle-length skirt, lace stockings and a diamond brooch said Tuesday he was protesting against a male bias in the country's justice system.

Rob Moodie, a former New Zealand Police union secretary, stunned the courtroom Monday when he appeared in women's clothing at a hearing related to a long-running case involving the death of a man in a bridge collapse on a North Island farm.

Mrs Moodie, who has been married to her husband for 25 years, said she was proud of his stance – and even admired his taste in women's clothes.

"If he feels happy to be wearing them, then that should be his right. It's very brave to make that stand.
