"justice of the peace" Explanation: As this term is peculiar to common law jurisdictions, there is no fully equivalent French term to use, so I would expand the English term to make it clear that this refers to a specific, untranslatable function. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Justice_of_the_peace A justice of the peace (JP) is a judicial officer of a lower or puisne court, elected or appointed by means of a commission (letters patent) to keep the peace. ... Depending on the jurisdiction, such justices dispense summary justice or merely deal with local administrative applications in common law jurisdictions.
