He was a scholar both at King's College, Taunton and at University College, Oxford, where he graduated with honors in jurisprudence. After passing his bar exam in 1959, Ching commenced his practice of law in Hong Kong, and was appointed Queen's Counsel in 1974. During this period, he was regarded by some as the most successful barrister in Hong Kong's history. Ching was later appointed to the Court of Appeal in 1995 and the Court of Final Appeal in 1997, where he served with distinction. He resigned in 2000 due to health reasons and died soon after. A scholarship named after him was set up by the Hong Kong Bar Association. Throughout his career both as advocate and as judge Mr. Justice Ching was an advocate for the merging of the legal professions in Hong Kong (barristers and solicitors).
  • 沈澄,大紫荊勳賢,JP (Charles Arthur Ching,GBM,JP,1935年10月7日-2000年11月30日)是香港的法官。他在一個書香世家出生,曾在香港及英國接受教育。 沈澄在1959年考獲大律師執業資格,並於1974年被委任為御用大律師。他是當時香港最成功的大狀(律师)。 1995年,沈澄獲委任為上訴庭法官;1997年回歸後獲委任為香港終審法院法官,成績卓越。2000年獲香港特別行政區行政長官董建華頒授大紫荊勳章,同年因為健康問題請辭,未料不久即離開人世。為紀念沈澄對香港法律界的貢獻,香港大律師公會特設沈澄紀念獎學金。 沈澄一直致力於把香港的法律工作者(事務律師及訟務律師,即大律師)的工作合併,並消除兩者的界限。不過這項工作直到現在仍然未能完成。
