  • The High Court of Justice (usually known more simply as the High Court) is, together with the Crown Court and the Court of Appeal, part of the Supreme Court of England and Wales (which, under the Constitutional Reform Act 2005, is to be known as the Senior Courts of England and Wales). It is also known as the High Court of England and Wales and abbreviated by EWHC. It deals at first instance with all the most high value and high importance cases, and also has a supervisory jurisdiction over all subordinate courts and many (but not all) tribunals. Appeal from the High Court in civil matters lies to the Court of Appeal and thence to the House of Lords, except when the High Court is sitting as a prize court when appeal lies to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council. The High Court is based at the Royal Courts of Justice on The Strand, in central London. However, it also sits as 'District Registries' all across England and Wales and virtually all proceedings in the High Court may be issued and heard at a district registry. It is headed by the Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales. By convention, all of its male judges are made Knights Bachelor, while all of its female ones are made Dames Commander of the British Empire. The latter is in fact a higher honour entitling holders to use of the postnominals "DBE" whereas a Knighthood Bachelor does not carry an equivalent right. This is because there is no direct female equivalent to a Knighthood Bachelor. The High Court is split into three main divisions: the Queen's Bench Division, the Chancery Division and the Family Division. The Supreme Court Costs Office is the part of the High Court that deals with the quantification of legal costs pursuant to costs orders made by the courts and falls outside these divisions. Most proceedings in the High Court are held before a single judge, but certain kinds of proceedings, especially in the Queen's Bench Division, are assigned to a Divisional Court (i.e. , a bench of two or more judges).
  • Der High Court of Justice ihrer Majestät (auch bekannt als The High Court) ist zusammen mit dem Crown Court (Strafgerichtshof) und dem Court of Appeal (Berufungsgericht) Teil des Supreme Court of Judicature (brit. oberster Gerichtshof) in England und Wales. Er behandelt erstinstanzlich alle hochwertigen und sehr wichtigen Fälle und hat außerdem die Oberaufsicht über alle untergeordneten Gerichte und Gerichtshöfe. Berufungen gegen Urteile des High Court in Zivilverfahren erfolgen beim Court of Appeal (Zivilabteilung) und dann beim House of Lords. Der High Court ist bei den Royal Courts of Justice an The Strand in Central London angesiedelt. Außerdem befinden sich Distrikt-Sekretariate überall in England und Wales. Nahezu alle Geschäfte am High Court können bei den Distrikt-Sekretariaten eingegeben und angehört werden. Angeführt wird der High Court durch den Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales (Lordoberrichter von England und Wales). Alle männlichen Richter bekommen den Ehrentitel Knight Bachelor (Mitglied des untersten engl. Ritterordens) verliehen; die Richterinnen werden zu Dames Commander of the British Empire ernannt (dames - dem knight entsprechender Titel). Der High Court ist in drei Abteilungen unterteilt, die Queen's Bench Division (Kammer für Zivilsachen), die Chancery Division (Kammer für Billigkeitsrechtsprechung) und die Family Division (Kammer für Familienrecht).
  • 高等法院(こうとうほういん、英: High Court of Justice)は、国王裁判所及び控訴院とともに、イングランド・ウェールズ最高法院の一部門をなす裁判所である(最高法院は、2005年憲法改革法により、イングランド・ウェールズ高等裁判所となる予定である)。High Court of England and Wales、あるいはそれを略してEWHCとも呼ぶ。 ファイル:Royal-courts-of-justice. jpg 高等法院のある王立裁判所(ロンドン) 高等法院は最重要事件を一審として取り扱うほか、すべての下位の裁判所に対する監督権限を有する。民事事件における高等法院からの上訴は控訴院、更に貴族院へ行く。ただし高等法院が捕獲審判所 として審判を行う場合は、上訴は枢密院司法委員会に行く。 高等法院は、ロンドン中心部のストランド地区にある王立裁判所に置かれている。もっとも、イングランド・ウェールズ全域に地方登記所 があり、高等法院におけるほぼすべての手続を地方登記所で行うことができる。高等法院の長はイングランド・ウェールズ首席判事 である。しきたりにより、高等法院の男性の裁判官は全員下級勲爵士(ナイト)に叙せられ、女性裁判官は全員デイムに叙せられることとなっている。 高等法院は、王座部、衡平法部(大法官部)、家事部の三つの部に分かれている。最高法院費用局は訴訟費用を取り扱う高等法院の部局で、これらの3部には属しない。 高等法院のほとんどの手続は1人の裁判官によって審理されるが、特に王座部において、一定の種類の手続は2人以上の裁判官から成る合議法廷 に割り当てられる。
