Justice of the Peace court

English to Chinese Other Other Justice of the Peace court
How to translate 'Edinburgh JP Court' ('Edinburgh Justice of the Peace Court')? Can we simply say ‘治安法庭’?

Please help. Thank you.

“治安法官”对一般读者而言容易产生歧义,因为中文的“法官”是有专业法律教育背景的,他们行驶的是国家审判权。治安法官的产生方式不同于中国法官,例如在澳大利亚,符合一定条件的澳大利亚公民都可成为JP, 不需要接受过法律教育。这个词语没有对应的中文(简体)概念,不如沿用香港的翻译,即太平绅士。

试译:爱丁堡治安官法院
Justice of the Peace本身是“治安法官”的意思。

市政法庭

Edinburgh Justice of the Peace Court,爱丁堡市政法庭。

The justice of the peace typically presides over a court that hears misdemeanor cases, traffic violations, and other petty criminal infractions. The justice of the peace may also have authority over cases involving small debts, landlord and tenant disputes, or other small claims court proceedings.

基层法院或地方法院

可以用括号注明英文原文。这是美国有些州的“入门级”法院,与中文中的基层法院或地方法院相当。例如:https://courts.delaware.gov/jpcourt/jurisdiction.aspx

court 也可以翻译成法庭,具体是法院还是法庭要取决于上下文。

更正一下,苏格兰的JP court 只办理刑事案子,那“治安法庭”相对而言更准确。https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_of_the_peace_court
