Japanese translation:鬘を被った裁判官が良識と判定したもの
Explanation:
裁判官が法廷で鬘とガウンを着用する慣習を未だに続けている国はほぼ皆無となったようですが、以前はありふれた光景でしたね:

In a remarkable demonstration of the resilience and pragmatism of the common law (which Lord Donaldson MR described in Re F as “common sense under a wig”) the House of Lords met this challenge by “rediscovering” an inherent declaratory jurisdiction in relation to incompetent adults, founded on the principles of necessity.

‘Common law’ is judge-made law (‘common sense under a wig’ was how Lord Donaldson expressed it⁸).
