法官备忘录（英语：Bench memorandum，复数形为bench memoranda，也称为bench memo），法律术语，它是一种法律文书，常见于美国法院。

法官备忘录是一份简单扼要的备忘录，记录法律诉讼案的事实、诉状的书面摘要、双方论点、以及相关的法律分析。承理法官在法庭进行口头辩论之前，通常会要求法官助理（Law clerk）先整理出这个文档，以为准备。

A bench memorandum (pl. bench memoranda) (also known as a bench memo) is a short and neutral memo which summarizes the facts, issues, and arguments of a court case. Bench memos are used by the judge as a reference when preparing for trial, when hearing lawyers' arguments, when drafting a decision, and to give the judge an idea of the arguments given by each side in the court case. Bench memos are generally written by the judge's law clerk, although lawyers can also submit their own memos that argue their case, so long as their memos remain neutral.
