deputy judge


Explanation:
Or district judge, both from EN>DA Juridisk dictionary from Gyldendal. A term like this is likely to depend on the jurisdiction and local conditions. I would be surprised if the same term were used in the US, Canada, England and Wales, Scotland, Australia and New Zealand.
