    Default Your honor.

    Hi. I'm new to this site. I've done a search for this term, but I haven't found anything in the forum. So, I hope you can help.

    How would you translate, Your Honor into Spanish?

    I've heard:

    1. Su senoria
    2. Su honor
    3. Su senor

    Are any of these correct?
    I'd really appreciate your help on this.

    Thank you!!

    Definitivamente: "Su Señoría".

    Las otras dos nunca las he escuchado, y personalmete dudo que se utilicen, aunque también te puedes dirigir al juez como:"Usted, C. Juez"

    I agree with David. "Su Señoría" is the best treatment for a Judge in Spanish

    Default Another option

    I agree with you all, but I've also heard "Sr. Juez". Haven't you?

    La he escuchado...

    Hace poco me dijeron que era sexista utilizar "Sr.", "Sra.", "Srita." etc. en asuntos legales...

    En lo particular, considero mejor opción dirigirse como "C. Juez"...

    Default Your Honour

    When you start a pleading, you say: "Señor Juez" or "Señora Jueza".

    When you are retelling something that the judge ruled on the case, you say: "S.S. (Su Señoría) ha dispuesto..."

    It's collocation.
