| Summary: | The analysis of the career development of judges practicing in the colonies between the 1830s and the end of the Empire emphasizes the originality of the colonial judiciary, comparison made with the magistrates of France. Essentially native in France, these judges are making their career in the colonies, except in the short period of establishment of courts that appeals to magistrates and external experience. Recruitment is low among local elites, except in the old colonies. Leaving aside the question of interim, the mobility of these judges are a little higher than on the mainland, resulting in a shorter career (retirement earlier), the difficult living conditions (high mortality) and failures of early career. Trade between the two judiciaries are limited, mainly by migrations from old to new settlements, which reinforces the finding is valid until the middle of the twentieth century, a colonial judiciary independent, ending most often in his career Empire. |
