Answer:

The wigs they wear are called "judicial wigs", and they are regarded as symbols of law after wearing judicial wigs. In the twelfth century, people in Britain began to wear wigs, especially the aristocracy of the upper class, as a symbol of fashion and status. This kind of judicial leave originated in England in the eighteenth century and has been used for more than 300 years. Since Hong Kong was also a British colony at that time, lawyers and judges in Hong Kong, like those in Britain, have always worn wigs. At that time, people had to wear wigs on more formal occasions, which was particularly solemn and dignified. Therefore, judges and lawyers in Britain at that time generally believed that wearing wigs in court could make the scene very solemn and dignified, and could deter the scene, so as to achieve the purpose of hearing cases impartially and selflessly. Over time, this habit of judicial wigs has been maintained. Stay here. And the judicial wig also symbolizes the experience and experience of judges and lawyers. If a judge or lawyer, the older his wig, the older the seniority and experience of the judge or lawyer, the more respected and dignified the court will be.
