| 单词 | Privilege |
| 释义 | 特權 The term describing a number of rules excluding evidence that would be adverse to a fundamental principle or relationship if it were disclosed. Examples of privilege include privilege against self-incrimination (Ho Sai Chu v Cheng Yun Sing [1993] 2 HKC 506; Evidence Ordinance (Cap 8) s 65(1)), and legal professional privilege (R v Mabel Lee (No 1) [1963] HKLR 791). The right to claim a privilege belongs to the person vested with the interest or relationship protected by the privilege: R v Peterborough Justices, ex p Hicks [1977] 1 WLR 1371, [1978] 1 All ER 225 (DC). However, a person or party to litigation may claim privilege on behalf of someone else in a representative capacity, for example, a lawyer acting for a client may claim legal professional privilege on behalf of the client: Great Atlantic Insurance Co v Home Insurance Co [1981] 1 WLR 529. See also Absolute privilege; Clerical privilege; Legal professional privilege; Privilege against self-incrimination; Privileged communication; Qualified privilege. 此詞指描述多項豁除證據的規則，而證據被豁除是因為它的披露會對基本原則或關係產生不利。特權的例子包括針對自證其罪的特權(Ho Sai Chu v Cheng Yun Sing [1993] 2 HKC 506; Evidence Ordinance s 65(1))，及法律專業保密特權： (R v Mabel Lee (No 1) [1963] HKLR 791)。就特權提出申索的權利屬於特權所保護的權益或關係的歸屬人：R v Justices of the Peace for Peterborough, ex p Hicks [1977] 1 WLR 1371, [1978] 1 All ER 225（英國地方法院）。然而，訴訟的一方或人士可以代表人的身份代表其他人提出申索，例如，代表客戶的律師可代表該名客戶提出法律專業保密權申索：Great Atlantic Insurance Co v Home Insurance Co [1981] 1 WLR 529。另見 Absolute privilege; Clerical privilege; Legal professional privilege; Privilege against self-incrimination; Privileged communication; Qualified privilege。n. |
