任何人不得成為自己案件的法官

任何人不得成為自己案件的法官拉丁語Nemo iudex in causa sua;英語:No one should be a judge in one's own case.)是一項自然公正原則,即任何人不得在牽涉自己之案件中擔任法官。[1][2]該規則適用於眾多司法管轄區[3]

這句話的變體有:

  • nemo judex idoneus in propria causa est
  • nemo judex in parte sua
  • nemo judex in re sua
  • nemo debet esse judex in propria causa
  • in propria causa nemo judex

違反自然公正原則的法律後果通常是停止法律程序及使判決無效;其應被推翻或撤銷,亦可重新聆訊。

該語通常被認為是17世紀法學家愛德華·科克爵士所作[4],但其實早在1544年就已有使用。[5]
