For the US legal system: "The Honorable (the judge's name)" -OR- if his/her name is long, you can abbreviate it to "The Hon. (the judge's name)" or just "Hon. (the judge's name)"-- don't include the quotation marks.

The first line of the envelope should be addressed to "The Honorable Judge [First and Last Name]. " You can abbreviate "Honorable." Example: The Hon. Jane Doe For the second line, include the official title of the judge (for instance: "Associate Justice" or "Judge"), add a comma, then include the full name of the court. Example: Chief Justice, United State Supreme Court Use the remaining lines for the address of the court. The same full address is repeated at the beginning of your letter, which should be in a standard business format (see Resources). Use "Dear Judge [Last Name]" as your greeting. Proofread the address carefully before submitting for the mail for typos so that it can be delivered properly. If handwritten, be certain all letters are legible.

In English etiquette according to Debrett's you would address a High Court Judge....
The Rt. Hon. Lord Justic (Surname).,
If the Judge is female you would address the envelope:
The Hon. Mrs Justice (Surname)., DBE
For a Circuit Judge you would address thus:
His Honour Judge (Surname) if he was a Queens Counsel when at the Bar, then QC would follow the name.

"Your honor", in person. You do not write to a judge to request a subpoena. You don't write to a judge AT ALL in relation to an ongoing case that you are a party to. That's called "ex parte communication", and isn't allowed. If you need a subpoena, and are not represented by counsel, you go to the clerk of the court and ask for a subpoena form. The actual process, beyond that point, varies by jurisdiction - but it never involves writing to the judge. Richard

The Honorable, that is the proper title.
