Talk:Magistrate

message: I'm going to revert the structural changes fastifex made to magistrate. Legal traditions are not typically delineated by race (such as anglo-saxon) since they are inherited independantly of geographical or racial divisions. I am not married to the structure I provided, however, and there are other options. Typically one would consider using a civil law versus common law grouping, however, magistrate is such a generic term with so many localized meanings, I thought it would benefit from a more global perspective.Manney 12:41, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

message: The additions of Chrisrowland appear to me to be POV. Who is to say "Your Worship" is antiquated? The very term suggests outdated and worthy of discard. That's one argument (which not all accept) and it's implied in the use of the term. Avalon 03:44, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

message: No mention of the Magistratus, where the name presumably comes from, and who are generally refred to as magistrates.
:I agree. The Roman and perhaps any elder connection should be mentioned as there are lots of visible influences of the Roman Judical system in Europa today. I haven't gotten any real in-depth knowledge meself so I can't add anything. Fred26 10:33, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Had to delete this sentence because it was garbled:  "In some jurisdictions, such as Australia, the term has become both Federal Magistrates and state magistrates have jurisdiction similar to a judge."  I don't object to the content, it's just that the sentence was garbled and I don't see how to fix it. NuclearWinner (talk) 21:01, 11 September 2008 (UTC)

message: The section on Magistrate Judges in the United States federal courts is substantial enough (and expandable enough) to be broken out into a separate article. bd2412 T 16:55, 30 December 2008 (UTC)
