The Halls of Justice are a group of dilapidated buildings that create the stronghold for the Main Force Patrol. It's the remaining bastion of justice in the Australian Outback.
Main Force Patrol[]
The Captain of the MFP, Fifi Macaffee, was the officer in charge of the entire operation and appeared to live within the walls of the Halls of Justice as well as take charge of police issues. Police Commissioner Labatouche is the highest authority in what could be the entire outback, but rarely bothers visiting the location.
Within the Complex[]
The complex itself is vast, including:
- An Underground garage holding MFP Interceptors and Pursuit Specials
- A courtyard.
- Several offices throughout floors.
- Prison cells including shackles.
- Possible courtroom.
- Fifi's rooms.
- Officer's barracks (although never shown, it is implied that the MFP Officers did long shifts and slept in barracks, going home to their families, as do most fire-fighters, on their days off.)
Symbolism[]
The Halls of Justice are decaying much like the society around them just before the fall, the total collapse of civilization. The stronghold complex itself is in a state of decay and disrepair. This is evidenced by the poor maintenance of the surrounding greenery as well as the dilapidated sign itself, with its dangling "U" as a symbol of a world, and specifically the MFP, that holds on by a thread.
Trivia[]
The name "Halls of Justice" comes from the term, Hall of Justice, which is a term for a Police HQ. Often these buildings house courtrooms and jails, likewise does the one in Mad Max.
The Halls of Justice can now be found in Science Works. Melbourne, Victoria
