The role of a Police officer in Queensland Court?
Police officers do all different things in court like enforcing the law. Because police officers act separate to the Judiciary, their actions are highly scrutinised by the courts. If police officers instigate action to bring an offender before the court, an officer needs to consider the evidence they have collected as well as their actions in obtaining that evidence and whether or not their actions and decisions will stand up to prosecutorial and judicial scrutiny. It's ultimately the court and not police officers that determine the guilt or otherwise of the offender.

What is another name for Officer of the Court?
Technically an "Officer of the Court" is any officer who receives his authority from, and owes allegiance to, a court of competent jurisdiction. Court officers are required to take an oath of office like a public official. In most states, these officers include judges, the clerk of the court (and their deputy clerks), court reporters, process servers, and all attorneys practicing before that court. Notaries Public, sheriffs, and police officers are typically Officers of the State, rather than Officers of the Court. Judges may actually be both Officers of the State and Officers of the Court if they received their judicial appointment from a state authority, such as the Governor. Although all attorneys are court officers, the attorney is not an employee or agent of the court or the court system. The attorney owes his/her direct allegiance to the client, and this includes a duty of advocacy of positions, based upon the facts, that favor the client as long as they are within the bounds of recognized law. An attorney can, and probably should, be creative in his/her arguments, but may never misrepresent facts or law. It is in the latter sense that the attorney is considered to be an officer of the court. "Winning the case" may never be at the expense of the integrity of the judicial system.
