Italian term
giudici a latere
Italian to English
Law/Patents
Law (general)
From the title page of an expert witness report for use in criminal proceedings. These are two members of the bench, working alongside the "Presidente" (presiding judge? - see my next question)
I thought this might be translated as "associate justices", but I have been told that this is specific to the US Supreme Court. The text regards criminal proceedings at the Court of Turin if that is any help.
Ideally I need a translation in British English.

Otherwise they are just called judges.
Judges on the Tribunale di Torino would be approximately equivalent in terms of seniority within the judicial hierarchy to circuit judges (see http://www.judiciary.gov.uk/about-the-judiciary/the-judiciar...

ps, as regards presidente, this would be President if on a senior court, and Chairman on a very low court like a tribunal

Comment: "Thank you both for your answers. I wanted the nearest UK equivalent, and so I felt that this answer was the most suitable, although I don't doubt that in many cases the other answer would also be appropriate. Sorry I couldn't award points to you both."

"A latere.
A fianco. - Espressione usata per designare funzionari che affiancano e coadiuvano altri nell'esercizio di alcune loro funzioni. Nella Chiesa, il cardinale legato a latere è un porporato che svolge, in rappresentanza del pontefice, una missione di particolare importanza. Nell'amministrazione della giustizia, giudice a latere, consigliere a latere, è un **magistrato di carriera** che, **insieme al presidente e ai giudici non togati**, **compone il collegio giudicante**."
