James Spigelman resigned from Hong Kong appeal court citing concerns with new law imposed by China
Australian judge James Spigelman has resigned from Hong Kong’s highest court, reportedly citing concerns over the national security law imposed on the region by Beijing.
His resignation comes amid a deteriorating political and judicial environment in Hong Kong, where the imposition of a national security law by the central government in Beijing has sparked concern and confusion about Hong Kong’s rule of law as a semi-autonomous state.
