Judge of misdemeanours/Judge of Arrestable Offences


Explanation:
Στην Αγγλία και στις ΗΠΑ (και σε άλλες πολλές χώρες) υπάρχουν δύο ειδών ποινικά δικήματα: misdemeanour και felony, ενώ στην Ελλάδα υπάρχουν τρία (πταίσμα, πλημμέλημα και κακούργημα). Είναι δύσκολο να επιλέξεις μια λέξη που να αντιστοιχεί ακριβώς στη μετάφραση του πλημμελειοδίκη. το Λεξικό Σταμέλου-Χατζημανώλη το αναφέρει ως "Judge of Misdemeanours/Judge of Arrestable Offences". Αν μπορούσε να μας πεις προς ποιό δίκαιο μεταφράζεις (π.χ. Αγλίας, ΗΠΑ, Καναδα, Αυστραλίας, Ιρλανδίας) θα βοηθούσε να υπάρξει μια πιο συγκεκριμένη μετάφραση

judge in a magistrate´s court


Explanation:
see "magistrate´s court " in England and Wales the lowest court primarily for civil law,

thus, one might just as well call it "civil court" instead of magistrate´s court, because the term would then apply to other countries, too . and the cases that are referred to it are exclusively (not primarily ) civil ones

agree  m_a_a_: Yes to "Magistrate's court" as a rendition of "πλημμελειοδικείο". (See my reference entry.) But why not just call the judge a "magistrate"?
