| 单词 | Retirement of judge |
| 释义 | 法官退休 Departure of a judge from his or her position in the judiciary. The normal retirement age of judges is specified when the appointment of judges of each particular court is dealt with. For example, permanent judges and the Chief Judge of the High Court must vacate their office when attaining the retirement age of 65 years: Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal Ordinance (Cap 484) s 14(1), (11); High Court Ordinance (Cap 4) s 11A(1), (5). However, there is no retirement age for non- permanent judges: Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal Ordinance (Cap 484) s 14(3). The Chief Judge of the High Court may continue in office for so long after attaining the retiring age as may be necessary to enable him to deliver judgment or to do any other thing in relation to proceedings that were commenced before him before he attained that age: High Court Ordinance (Cap 4) s 11A(2). Where a judge retires or resigns after the hearing of a case has commenced but before the judgment has been given, it is permissible for the remaining members of the court to hand down judgment without a new trial unless there is a deadlock or unless there is a requirement that the court consist of a certain number of members: Somersetshire Drainage Cmrs v Corp of Bridgwater [1899] 81 LT 729. 法官離開其在司法界上的職位。在每一法院委任法官時所訂明的法官正常退休年齡。例如常任法官和高等法院的首席法官，必須在年屆65歲退休年齡時離任：《香港終審法院條例》（第484章） 第14(1)及(11)條；《高等法院條例》（第4章）第11A(1)及(5)條。但非常任法官則沒有規定的退休年齡：《香港終審法院條例》（第484章）第14(3)及 (11)條。為使高等法院的首席法官能就在他未屆退休年齡之前已在他席前展開的法律程序宣告判決或作出任何事情，該人仍可在已屆退休年齡後在情況所需的期間內繼續留任：《高等法院條例》（第4章）第 11A(2)條。如法官在案件展開聆訊後但在作出判決前退休或辭職，除非有僵局或有規定法院須由若干數目的成員組成，否則可容許法院的其他成員在沒有展開新的審訴下宣布判決： Somersetshire Drainage Cmrs v Bridgewater Corp [1899] 81 LT 729。 |
