> UK barristers walk out in pay dispute
英國律師持續罷工 案件積壓達數萬起

Criminal barristers in England and Wales will go on strike for an indefinite time starting Monday. Barristers plan to hold rallies on Tuesday outside the Supreme Court London, as well as court buildings in Cardiff, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol and Leeds.
英格蘭和威爾士的刑事律師將從周一開始無限期罷工，并計劃周二在倫敦最高法院以及卡迪夫、曼徹斯特、伯明翰、布里斯托爾和利茲的法院大樓外舉行集會。

The Criminal Bar Association, or CBA, wants a 25-percent increase in legal aid fees for representing defendants who cannot afford a lawyer.
刑事律師協會希望為負擔不起律師費的被告代理增加25%的法律援助費用。

According to CBA, the criminal justice system is underfunded, as some junior barristers are making less than the hourly minimum wage.
根據刑事律師協會的說法，刑事司法系統資金不足，一些初級律師的收入低于每小時最低工資。

Since the end of June, barristers have staged walkouts, with week-long strikes on alternate weeks throughout August.
自6月底以來，律師們舉行了罷工，整個8月每隔一周舉行一次為期一星期的罷工。

Every month, at least 7,000 criminal cases go to Crown Court, courts’ backlog in England and Wales was 58,973 cases until the end of June, and 6,235 court hearings were disrupted by strikes from the end of June to early August.
每月至少有7000起刑事案件提交給皇家法院，截至6月底，英格蘭和威爾士的法院積壓案件為58973起，6月底至8月初期間有6235起法庭聽證會因罷工而中斷。

> Brazil orders Apple to stop selling iPhones without chargers
巴西禁售不配充電器iPhone手機

Brazil on Tuesday ordered Apple Inc to stop selling iPhones without a battery charger in the country, saying the multinational technology company sells an incomplete product to its customers.
巴西9月6日勒令蘋果公司停止在該國銷售不配備充電器的iPhone手機，稱該跨國科技公司向顧客出售的是不完整的產品。

According to Reuters, the Justice Ministry fined Apple 12.275 million reals ($2.38 million) and ordered the cancellation of the sale of iPhone 12 and newer models, in addition to suspending the sale of any iPhone model that does not come with a power charger.
據路透社報道，巴西司法部對蘋果公司處以1227.5萬雷亞爾（約238萬美元）的罰款，并下令取消銷售iPhone 12手機和更新的機型，此外還暫停銷售任何沒有配備充電器的iPhone機型。

The Brazil order comes just a day before Apple Inc is ready to launch the new iPhone 14 at the company's annual September keynote event on Wednesday.
美國時間9月7日蘋果秋季新品發布會將舉行，屆時將發布新款iPhone 14手機，而巴西方面的這一決定恰在發布會的前一天。

Apple had argued that selling iPhones without chargers was aimed at reducing carbon emissions, but Brazilian authorities countered this, saying there is no evidence of environmental protection.
蘋果公司稱將充電器排除在iPhone手機銷售之外是為了減少碳排放，但巴西相關部門反駁認為，沒有證據表明這一做法是為了環保。

Apple is yet to respond to the order.
蘋果公司尚未對這一命令做出回應。
