An unelected judge is a member of the judiciary who has not been chosen through a public election process but rather appointed to their position. This can occur in various legal systems, where judges may be appointed by the executive branch, nominated by a commission, or selected through other non-electoral means. Unelected judges are often tasked with interpreting laws and ensuring justice, and their role is designed to maintain an impartial judiciary, free from political pressures. Their appointment process can vary widely depending on the country's legal framework.
