Hong Kong High Court judge Wilson Chan is set to receive a formal reprimand from the city’s chief justice following the discovery that he plagiarized significant portions of legal submissions for a court judgment. In addition to the reprimand, the judge has been ordered to undergo further professional training to address the conduct.
This incident marks at least the sixth time Judge Chan has been found to have engaged in extensive copying within his written rulings. The repeated nature of these findings has prompted official intervention to address the integrity of his judicial work and ensure future compliance with professional standards.
