- A high sheriff is a ceremonial officer for each shrieval county of England and Wales and Northern Ireland or the chief sheriff of a number of paid sheriffs in U.S. states who outranks and commands the others in their court-related functions. In Canada, the High Sheriff provides administrative services to the supreme and provincial courts. The office existed in the Irish Free State, but was abolished in 1926. In England and Wales, the offices of high sheriff were created at the direction of the Local Government Act 1972 incepting on 1 April 1974. The purpose was to distinguish sheriffs of counties proper from sheriffs of cities and boroughs designated counties corporate. Except for the City of London, which has two sheriffs, these cities and boroughs no longer have sheriffs, leaving only high sheriffs in England and Wales in the sheriff's office. The office is now an unpaid privilege with ceremonial duties, the sheriffs being appointed annually by the Crown through a warrant from the Privy Council except for Cornwall, where the high sheriff is appointed by the Duke of Cornwall and for Merseyside, Greater Manchester and Lancashire, where the High Sheriff is appointed by the Duke of Lancaster (currently the King). In England and Wales the office's civil (civil judgement) enforcement powers exist but are not exercised by convention. The Website of the High Sheriffs’ Association of England and Wales stated in 2021 that the role was a "non-political Royal appointment", for one year, and unpaid. (en)
- Un haut-shérif (High sheriff) est un officier de cérémonie pour chaque comté d'Angleterre et du pays de Galles et d'Irlande du Nord. C'est aussi le shérif en chef de plusieurs shérifs payés aux États américains qui surclasse et commande les autres dans leurs fonctions judiciaires. Au Canada, le haut-shérif fournit des services administratifs aux cours suprêmes et provinciales. Le service existait dans l'État libre d'Irlande, mais a été supprimé en 1926. (fr)
- L'alto sceriffo (in inglese: High sheriff) è un ufficiale (di solito cerimoniale) per ogni contea in Inghilterra e Galles e Irlanda del Nord. Tuttavia, l'attività viene contemplata in modo diverso negli Stati Uniti rispetto al Regno Unito. All'interno del Regno Unito c'è anche una differenza tra la Cornovaglia e il resto del Regno Unito. In Canada, l'Alto sceriffo fornisce servizi amministrativi ai tribunali supremi e provinciali. La carica esisteva nello Stato Libero d'Irlanda, ma fu soppressa nel 1926. (it)
- De high sheriff is een (meestal ceremoniële) positie met betrekking tot wetshandhaving in Angelsaksische landen. De taak wordt echter anders ingevuld in de Verenigde Staten dan in het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Binnen het Verenigd Koninkrijk is er dan ook nog eens een verschil tussen Cornwall en de rest van het Verenigd Koninkrijk. (nl)
