Sir Charles Anthony Haddon-Cave (born 20 March 1956), styled The Hon. Mr Justice Haddon-Cave, is a British judge serving in the Queen's Bench Division of the High Court of England and Wales.

Haddon-Cave was called to the Bar (Gray's Inn) in 1978, and elected a bencher in 2003. He was called to the Bar in Hong Kong in 1980.[1] Haddon-Cave took silk in 1999, and served as an assistant recorder from 1998 to 2000.[2] He then served as a recorder until his appointment to the High Court on 31 October 2011,[3] upon which occasion he was knighted.[2]

Sir Charles is the son of Sir Charles Philip Haddon-Cave, Financial Secretary of Hong Kong from 1971 to 1981, and elder brother to Francis, who was called to the Hong Kong bar in 1999.

Haddon-Cave led a review into the 2006 RAF Nimrod crash.

He sentenced the Parsons Green bomber to a minimum of 34 years in prison in 2018.[4] He said, “You will have plenty of time to study the Koran in Prison… the Koran is a book of peace… Islam forbids breaking the law of the land…..Islam forbids terror.”[5]
