常任裁判官(2025年起)

繁體中文

熊雪如(Shirley Cornelia Hung)是香港司法機構常任裁判官。她於一九八五年在香港出生,二○○六年在加拿大滑鐵盧大學取得數學及工商管理學士學位,二○○九年在英國曼徹斯特都會大學取得法學士學位,二○一○年在香港中文大學取得法學專業證書。司法機構的任命公告顯示,她於二○一一年在香港獲大律師資格,二○一二年起私人執業。從數學及商業本科到法律專業資格,她的學歷背景兼具量化訓練與法律訴訟準備,屬香港司法人員中較為多元的專業組合。 二○二五年十二月十日,熊雪如獲委任為常任裁判官,由行政長官按司法人員推薦委員會推薦作出任命。到二○二六年九月,司法機構官方法官名單已把她列為在任裁判官,政府電話簿則顯示她在西九龍裁判法院出任裁判官法庭工作。裁判法院是香港刑事司法最前線,除處理新案提堂外,也要處理保釋、審訊、認罪及量刑。一般而言,裁判官可就單一罪行判處最高兩年監禁及十萬元罰款;若同時處理兩項或以上可公訴罪行,刑期上限可增至三年。這些看似較低的量刑權限,實際上覆蓋了大量直接影響市民自由與刑責的案件。 公開報道顯示,熊雪如上任後已處理具公共關注的案件。二○二六年七月,一名男子承認在立法會選舉期間於社交媒體轉載帖文,煽惑他人不投票,她在西九龍裁判法院判刑時指出,政府投入大量資源舉辦選舉,任何人均不得干預這項重要公共選舉,在考慮認罪及犯案屬單一轉載後,判處被告入獄兩個月、緩刑兩年。同月另一宗廉署案件中,她批准控方加控三名涉案人士多項貪污及串謀詐騙罪名,並把案件押後,以待轉介區域法院答辯。這兩宗案件分別涉及選舉法例與貪污檢控程序,雖然程序階段不同,但都反映裁判官在早期司法把關中的角色。 就其整體履歷而言,熊雪如由私人執業大律師轉任常任裁判官,並在上任後不久便處理涉及公共秩序、廉政執法及刑事程序管理的案件。她的數學與工商管理背景,未必直接決定司法取向,卻顯示她受過重視分析及結構思考的訓練;再加上大律師執業經驗,使她成為一名具備跨學科基礎的新任裁判官。現時可核實的資料仍以官方履歷與已報道案件為主,未足以概括其完整司法風格,但已可見她迅速投入香港基層刑事司法工作的實況。

Shirley Cornelia Hung is a Permanent Magistrate in Hong Kong. She was born in Hong Kong in 1985 and first studied outside the conventional law track, obtaining a bachelor's degree in Mathematics and Business Administration from the University of Waterloo in Canada in 2006. She then turned to law, earning an LL.B. from Manchester Metropolitan University in 2009 and a Postgraduate Certificate in Laws from the Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2010. The Judiciary's appointment announcement states that she was called to the Hong Kong Bar in 2011 and entered private practice in 2012. Hung was appointed a Permanent Magistrate with effect from 10 December 2025 by the Chief Executive on the recommendation of the Judicial Officers Recommendation Commission. By September 2026 she appeared on the Judiciary's official list of serving magistrates, and the government directory showed her working in the magistracy at West Kowloon. The magistracy is the front line of Hong Kong's criminal courts, dealing not only with first appearances but also with bail, trials, pleas, sentencing and everyday procedural control. Public reporting shows that shortly after taking office she handled matters that attracted wider attention. In July 2026, in a case involving incitement of others not to vote during the Legislative Council election period, Hung stated in sentencing that substantial public resources had been invested in conducting the election and that no one should interfere with such an important public election. Taking into account the guilty plea and the fact that the conduct involved a single repost, she sentenced the defendant to two months' imprisonment suspended for two years. In another July 2026 matter brought by the ICAC, she granted the prosecution's application to add corruption-related charges and adjourned the case with a view to transfer to the District Court. These cases were at different procedural stages, but both illustrate the magistrate's role in early judicial supervision and criminal case management. Her profile combines quantitative and business training with later legal practice at the Bar. That background does not by itself define a judicial approach, but it does suggest experience in structured reasoning and analytical work before entering legal practice. On the presently verifiable public record, Hung can be described as a newly appointed Permanent Magistrate who moved from private practice into judicial office and quickly took on cases involving election law, anti-corruption enforcement and ordinary criminal procedure in the magistracy.
