Judge
From Wikipedia, a free encyclopedia written in simple English for easy reading.
A judge is the man or women who is in control of a court of law. When people are taken to a court by police because the police say they have broken a law, the court will decide if they are guilty or not guilty. The judge has the job of making sure the person taken to court is treated in a fair way. Some courts will have more than one judge, for example three judges. Judges must work in the law (often as a lawyer) for a number of years before they can 'sit as a judge' in a court.
For important decisions about the laws of a country, countries may have a supreme court or high court with many (9 or more), judges in it.
