主任裁判官(2025年起)

繁體中文

張志偉(Cheung Chi-wai, David),香港主任裁判官,一九六六年在香港出生。他一九九○年及一九九二年在香港大學分別取得法學士學位及法學專業證書,一九九五年及二○○○年分別在香港及英格蘭及威爾斯獲事務律師資格,並先後於二○○七年及二○○九年在香港國際仲裁中心及香港律師會取得一般調解員資格。他一九九五年起私人執業,直至二○一二年獲委任為常任裁判官。 二○二五年九月十五日,司法機構宣布委任張志偉為主任裁判官,任命於同月十六日起生效,與他同日獲委任的還有沈其亮。 裁判法院是香港的基層刑事法院,裁判官負責處理大部分刑事案件的初步程序及簡易程序審訊,並就判刑作出決定;主任裁判官則兼顧所屬法院的運作,並在需要時署理較高職務。張志偉由事務律師轉任常任裁判官,十三年後升任主任裁判官,其執業年代主要處理民事及商業事務,轉任裁判官後則以刑事審訊為主,兩種經驗互為補充。他另具一般調解員資格,有助理解訴訟以外的爭議解決方式。 香港各級法院的法官及司法人員由行政長官根據司法人員推薦委員會的推薦而委任,任命以《基本法》為依據;《基本法》第八十八條訂明法官須經獨立委員會推薦、由行政長官任命,第九十二條則規定法官應按其司法及專業才能選用,並可從其他普通法適用地區聘用。 他在裁判法院任職十三年,期間處理各類刑事案件的提堂、保釋、審訊及判刑,並曾於不同裁判法院工作,熟悉裁判法院的日常運作。裁判法院的聆訊以案件量龐大、程序緊湊見稱,法官須在有限時間內兼顧效率與準確,這種訓練對晉升為主任裁判官後的統籌工作亦有幫助。

Cheung Chi-wai, David, is a Principal Magistrate of Hong Kong, born in Hong Kong in 1966. He obtained his LL.B. and Postgraduate Certificate in Laws from the University of Hong Kong in 1990 and 1992 respectively. He qualified as a solicitor in Hong Kong in 1995 and in England and Wales in 2000, and became a general mediator accredited by the Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre in 2007 and by the Law Society of Hong Kong in 2009. He was in private practice from 1995 until his appointment as a Permanent Magistrate in 2012. On 15 September 2025 the Judiciary announced his appointment as a Principal Magistrate with effect from 16 September 2025, together with Timon Shum Kei-leong. The magistracy is the lower criminal court of Hong Kong: magistrates deal with the preliminary stages of most criminal cases and with summary trials, and pass sentence, while a Principal Magistrate also oversees the operation of the court and may act in a more senior capacity when required. Moving from practice as a solicitor, mainly in civil and commercial work, to the magistracy and then to Principal Magistrate after thirteen years, Cheung's two backgrounds complement each other, and his mediator accreditation gives him an understanding of dispute resolution outside litigation. Judges and judicial officers are appointed by the Chief Executive on the recommendation of the Judicial Officers Recommendation Commission; Article 88 of the Basic Law requires appointment on the recommendation of an independent commission, and Article 92 provides that judges be chosen on the basis of their judicial and professional qualities and may be recruited from other common law jurisdictions.He served in the magistracy for thirteen years, dealing with committal, bail, trial and sentencing work in a wide range of criminal cases and sitting in different magistrates' courts, and is therefore familiar with the day-to-day operation of the magistracy. Because the magistracy is marked by heavy caseloads and tight procedure, judges must combine efficiency with accuracy, a discipline that also assists a Principal Magistrate in coordinating the work of a court.
