When addressing a husband and wife who are both judges, the proper salutation is "The Honorable Judge [First Name] [Last Name] and The Honorable Judge [First Name] [Last Name]." If referring to them collectively, you might say "The Honorable Judges [Last Name]". It's important to use their official titles to show respect for their positions.
