对于大多数人来说,戴假发是英国司法界最为与众不同的特色之一。90年代中期,大法官(Lord Chancellor)曾经考虑过改革法庭穿束,但人们发现律师们和他们的客户都希望保留法庭里的传统。 为什么呢?我想其中的一个原因是戴假发在一定程度上起到了掩饰和保护的作用。出庭律师和法官们戴上假发后会看起来有所不同,这样那些气势汹汹的当事人,尤其是在刑事案件中的当事人,就很难在街上认出他们来。在另一些当事人看来,在法庭上出庭律师们一戴上假发,当事人把代理费付给谁了就一目了然了。 于是,最近,有一些律师对此表示不满,商业律师协会最近就是否在民事案件中保留这种传统进行了投票,57％的律师表示同意废除。后来大法官Irvine勋爵在6月份发表声明说,“戴假发是一个时代错误。” 从12世纪开始,人们渐渐开始戴假发。具体为什么不是很清楚,可能的原因是,疾病或者劳累使他们掉头发了。今天,在英格兰和威尔士的法庭上,你可以看到有三种假发。最普通的是出庭律师的假发,所有的出庭
For most people wearing wigs is one of the most distinctive features of the British judiciary. In the mid-nineties, Lord Chancellor considered the reform court, but found that lawyers and their clients all wanted to preserve the court tradition. Why? I think one of the reasons is to wear wigs to a certain extent, played the role of cover up and protection. Appearing lawyers and judges may look different when they wear a wig, so it is hard for those who are menacing, especially in criminal cases, to recognize them in the street. In the eyes of other parties, it appears to the court attorney-at-law who put on the wig that the client paid the agent fee. As a result, some lawyers recently expressed their dissatisfaction with the Commercial Bar Association’s recent vote on whether to retain this tradition in civil cases, and 57% of the lawyers have agreed to repeal them. Lord Justice Irvine later issued a statement in June saying “wearing a wig is an anachronistic error.” People began wearing wigs as they started in the 12th century. The specific reason is not very clear, probably because of illness or exertion to make them hair loss. Today, in the courts in England and Wales, you can see three wigs. The most common is the appearance of a lawyer’s wig, all in court
