specjalny asystent sędziego Explanation: This reminds me of "special masters" who hear bankruptcy proceedings and are not judges but appointed lawyers. In New Jersey, for example, the recommended translation is specjalny asystent sędziego see special master specjalny asystent sędziego https://njcourts.gov/forms/11783_glossary_polish.pdf -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 4 hrs (2018-11-21 04:06:15 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- cccccccccccc Special Master In the law of the United States, a special master is generally a subordinate official appointed by a judge to make sure that judicial orders are actually followed, or in the alternative, to hear evidence on behalf of the judge and make recommendations to the judge as to the disposition of a matter. The special master should not be confused with the traditional common law concept of a master, a judge of the High Court entrusted to deal with summary and administrative matters falling short of a full trial. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special_master |

Reference: masters, special masters, magistrates, special magistrates, general magistrates Reference information: A note on nomenclature is unavoidable. “Magistrates” have replaced “masters” in Florida state courts. Effective October 1, 2004, the Supreme Court of Florida amended Rule 1.490, Rule 12.492, and Rule 5.697 so that all references to “master” thereafter became “magistrate.”10 “Special masters” became “special magistrates.” The change was essentially administrative and cosmetic.11 Both “master” and “magistrate” denote court appointees with varying degrees of limited judicial authority. The subject of general magistrates, except incidentally, is outside the scope of this article. We are concerned here with masters serving specifically delineated tasks in specific cases — masters that have been historically designated as “special masters.” - https://goo.gl/SwK9iu ------ General Magistrates and Hearing Officers are quasi-judicial officers who conduct formal court hearings to assist in the caseload of specified divisions within the circuit. The general magistrates and hearing officers serve under the direction of the administrative or associate administrative judge of the respective divisions. Specific authorization of their duties is outlined by Administrative Order. - http://www.fljud13.org/CourtOperations.aspx --- Hearing Officers and Magistrates are attorneys that the Circuit's Chief Judge appoints to perform certain quasi-judicial duties. - http://www.jud12.flcourts.org/About/Divisions/Family/Family-... ------ 2. General Magistrate Duties: General Magistrates for the Twelfth Judicial Circuit shall perform any and all legal duties as directed by the Court and have all authority granted by Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.490, Florida Probate Rule 5.697, Florida Rules of Juvenile Procedure 8.257 and 8.625(h), Florida Family Law Rule 12.491, sections 393.11, 394.467, 397.311, 397.681 and 744.369, Florida Statutes, and any other rule or statutory provision authorizing the appointment of a general magistrate. 3.
