#Court #JamesSpigelman
Judge Resigned Allegedly for National Security Law Concerns in Hong Kong

Hong Kong's Chief Executive Carrie Lam withdrew the appointment of Polish-born Australian James Spigelman as a foreign non-permanent judge in the Court of Final Appeal. The order was gazetted on Sept 18, 2020 and backdated to Sept 2, the day Spigelman resigned.

According to ABC reporter Stephen Dziedzic, Spigelman resigned due to concern over Beijing's insertion of the National Security Law in Hong Kong.

Spigelman was one out of 14 foreign judges appointed to the Court of Final Appeal in Hong Kong.
