| 单词 | Judicial independence |
| 释义 | 司法獨立 Freedom from direction, control, or interference in the operation or exercise of judicial powers by either the legislative or executive arms of government, despite that judges are all holding office of emolument under the government: Mutual Luck Investment Ltd v A-G & Anor (1996) 6 HKPLR 1 (HC); Basic Law arts 19, 84. Judicial independence is essential for securing the observance of the rule of law. Judicial independence is supported in the Hong Kong SAR by several institutional arrangements including security of tenure for judges of District Court or above; judges’ adequate remuneration; their immunity from suit; their power to punish for contempt; their appointment upon the advice of the Judicial Service Commission; and the solemnity with which proceedings are conducted: Peter Wesley-Smith, An Introduction to the Hong Kong Legal System (OUP, 1993) ch 11. 司法權力的運作及行使不會受到政府立法或執行機關的指示、管制或干預，除了所有法官均擔任政府之下的受薪職位：Mutual Luck Investment Ltd v A-G & Anor (1996) 6 HKPLR 1 （高等法院）；基本法第19、84條。司法獨立是確保遵守法律規則的必要元素。在香港特別行政區，司法獨立由幾個制度性安排支持，包括對區域法院或以上的法官的租住權保障；給予法官足夠的薪酬；被起訴的豁免權；懲罰藐視罪的權力；諮詢司法人員敘用委員會後的委任；以及進行法律程序的正式手續：Peter Wesley-Smith, An Introduction to the Hong Kong Legal System (OUP, 1993) ch 11。 |
