高等法院原訟法庭特委法官(2021年起;2024年再獲委任)

繁體中文

薛日華(Eva Sit Yat-wah),1978年生,香港執業資深大律師,現任高等法院原訟法庭特委法官。她早年負笈英國,在牛津大學先後取得文學士(法理學)及民事法學士學位,分別於2001年及2003年畢業。她於2002年在香港取得大律師資格,自2004年起私人執業,長期從事民事、商業及憲制法律事務。2019年,她獲委任為資深大律師,專業地位獲得確認。2020年,她獲委任為高等法院暫委法官,開始分擔高等法院的審訊工作。2021年,她獲委任為高等法院原訟法庭特委法官;2024年1月1日,她再獲委任為特委法官,任期三年,與許紹鼎、林欣琪兩位資深大律師一同續任。 特委法官(Recorder)制度源自英國,由具備豐富執業經驗的大律師或律師以兼職方式出任,協助高等法院原訟法庭分擔案件。這項安排既可靈活調配審判人手,也讓執業者在維持私人執業的同時累積司法經驗。高等法院原訟法庭是高等法院的初審法院,處理最嚴重的刑事案件、重大的民事訴訟,以及涉及憲制及人權的司法覆核,特委法官亦會參與其中。香港的司法任命以《基本法》為依據,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委任,特委法官亦然。薛日華的專業資歷逾二十年,由大律師、資深大律師一路兼任高等法院的司法職務,反映司法機構對其專業判斷的充分肯定。

English

Eva Sit Yat-wah (born 1978) is a Hong Kong senior counsel and currently a Recorder of the Court of First Instance of the High Court. She studied at the University of Oxford, graduating with a BA in Jurisprudence in 2001 and a Bachelor of Civil Law in 2003. She was called to the Hong Kong Bar in 2002 and has practised in private practice since 2004, principally in civil, commercial and constitutional work. She was appointed Senior Counsel in 2019. In 2020 she served as a Deputy High Court Judge, and in 2021 she was appointed a Recorder of the Court of First Instance. On 1 January 2024 she was reappointed as a Recorder for a further three years, together with two other senior counsel. The office of Recorder is inherited from the English system: experienced barristers or solicitors sit part-time to help the High Court dispose of its caseload. The arrangement lets the Judiciary deploy judicial manpower flexibly while allowing practitioners to gain judicial experience. The Court of First Instance, the trial court of the High Court, hears the most serious criminal cases, major civil disputes and constitutional and human rights judicial reviews. Judicial appointments in Hong Kong are made by the Chief Executive on the recommendation of the independent Judicial Officers Recommendation Commission. After more than two decades in practice, Ms Sit's appointment reflects the Judiciary's confidence in her professional judgment.
