The New South Wales Law Society says the state's Attorney General is aware of the high volume of work the Wagga Wagga District Court is handling.

President, Griffith's John Eades, says two new District Court judges were sworn in last week, and will make help ease delays in the District Court.

A report released this week by Bureau of Crime Statistics that showed the average time in the District Court between committal and case finalisation for accused criminals in custody was 300 days last year, 44 per cent longer than it took in 2007.

Mr Eades does not know where the judges will be based, but said their appointments will make a difference, particularly to the Riverina.

"No I have not been informed by the Attorney General, but in my discussions with her, she indicated that she was aware that a lot of the trial work they'd be doing came from the Riverina," he said.

In May this year, Judge Jennifer English called for a full-time District Court Judge in Wagga Wagga, saying 56 pending trials was too much.

Mr Eades said more resources are definitely needed.

"The government is obviously funding the police which brings rise to a higher number of charges, but tragically it is not funding the consequence which is the court services, justices and judges and also Legal Aid for Defence," he said.

Bureau of Crime Statistics Director, Don Weatherburn, says encouraging earlier guilty pleas or moving matters to the local court could help.

Mr Eades is not supportive of those options.

"We had a system of indicative pleas and the government in its wisdom decided to dispense with that process," he said.

"The Society does not support increasing the load of the local court where regularly even in the bush, magistrates on list days are dealing with 150 to 200 matters a day."
