爱尔兰新规：法官不再戴假发
<p>爱尔兰法院服务部近日宣布，法官出庭时不再需要佩戴标志性假发。这一变革使沿袭了超过350年的传统就此终结，同时还为爱尔兰纳税人节约不少开支。爱尔兰司法系统此前每任命一名法官，就需要支付2200欧元（约合1.9万人民币）来购买假发。据悉，这一提议已在爱尔兰高级法院管理委员会获得通过，并将在司法部长签署后正式生效。届时，最高和高级法院，以及巡回法院的法官在出庭时都不再需要佩戴假发。此前，爱尔兰法院服务部还通过一项规定，出庭法官不再被称呼为“<span word="My">My</span> <span word="Lord">Lord</span>”（大人），而改称“<span word="Judge">Judge</span>”（法官）。</p><p><span word="Ireland">Ireland</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="judges">judges</span> <span word="are">are</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="ditch">ditch</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="horsehair">horsehair</span> <span word="wigs">wigs</span> <span word="after">after</span> 350 <span word="years">years</span>, <span word="the">the</span> <span word="country">country</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="Courts">Courts</span> <span word="Service">Service</span> <span word="said">said</span>.</p><p>"<span word="A">A</span> <span word="change">change</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="Court">Court</span> <span word="Rules">Rules</span> <span word="made">made</span> <span word="today">today</span>, <span word="will">will</span> <span word="end">end</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="requirement">requirement</span> <span word="for">for</span> <span word="judges">judges</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="wear">wear</span> <span word="wigs">wigs</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="court">court</span>," <span word="a">a</span> <span word="statement">statement</span> <span word="said">said</span>.</p><p><span word="The">The</span> <span word="Superior">Superior</span> <span word="Courts">Courts</span> <span word="Rules">Rules</span> <span word="Committee">Committee</span>, <span word="chaired">chaired</span> <span word="for">for</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="first">first</span> <span word="time">time</span> <span word="by">by</span> <span word="recently">recently</span> <span word="appointed">appointed</span> <span word="chief">chief</span> <span word="justice">justice</span> <span word="Susan">Susan</span> <span word="Denham">Denham</span> - <span word="Ireland">Ireland</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="first">first</span> <span word="female">female</span> <span word="top">top</span> <span word="judge">judge</span> - <span word="approved">approved</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="court">court</span> <span word="rules">rules</span> <span word="change">change</span> <span word="that">that</span> <span word="does">does</span> <span word="away">away</span> <span word="with">with</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="requirement">requirement</span> <span word="for">for</span> <span word="ceremonial">ceremonial</span> <span word="wigs">wigs</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="be">be</span> <span word="worn">worn</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="Supreme">Supreme</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="High">High</span> <span word="Courts">Courts</span>.</p><p><span word="A">A</span> <span word="similar">similar</span> <span word="rule">rule</span> <span word="change">change</span> <span word="will">will</span> <span word="apply">apply</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="judges">judges</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="Circuit">Circuit</span> <span word="Court">Court</span> <span word="after">after</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="change">change</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="signed">signed</span> <span word="into">into</span> <span word="law">law</span> <span word="by">by</span> <span word="Justice">Justice</span> <span word="Minister">Minister</span> <span word="Alan">Alan</span> <span word="Shatter">Shatter</span>.</p><p><span word="Wigs">Wigs</span> <span word="have">have</span> <span word="been">been</span> <span word="worn">worn</span> <span word="in">in</span> <span word="court">court</span> <span word="as">as</span> "<span word="a">a</span> <span word="matter">matter</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="rule">rule</span>, <span word="tradition">tradition</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="law">law</span>" <span word="since">since</span> <span word="about">about</span> 1660, <span word="the">the</span> <span word="time">time</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="restoration">restoration</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="English">English</span> <span word="monarchy">monarchy</span>, <span word="and">and</span> <span word="survived">survived</span> <span word="Ireland">Ireland</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="transition">transition</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="independence">independence</span> <span word="in">in</span> 1921.</p>
