Sichuan Court Set Up A Network To Supervise The Whole Process Of Civil Case Hearing

The whole process of network supervision and civil trial in Sichuan courts is expected to be promoted nationwide.

The judge's case is open throughout the court's network system.

Recently, the reporter learned from the Sichuan provincial high court that the province handled 211 cases of civil cases online synchronously in the whole province.

The so-called "online simultaneous handling of cases" refers to the establishment of a unified online case handling system in 211 courts in Sichuan Province, and the process for judges to hear each case is reflected in the network.

Judges will register online, court, collegiate and verdict. The president, the president and the judge can be authorized to see the case.

For some cases that are more influential, the directors and presidents will mark suggestions on the system and save them in the system.

A court judge of the Sichuan Provincial High Court told reporters that in the past, some judges had violating the rules. The fundamental reason was that the supervision within the court was not enough.

The new system puts the case in the judge's visible environment.

"Supervision will not affect the independence of judges".

Vice president of Sichuan provincial high court said the online trial process is a general direction.

Beijing News: why do we have such a supervision system?

Chen Mingguo (vice president of Sichuan Provincial High Court): when a judge handles a case, the president and the director in charge can be observed through the system at any time. As long as there are violations, they can be consulted as long as the parties or individuals are reflected.

For a judge, there is a pair of eyes that are staring at him. These eyes will not interfere with you when you work normally.

Beijing News: what is the biggest advantage of synchronizing online cases?

Chen Mingguo: the biggest advantage of online handling is to supervise effectively but not to interfere in handling cases.

Judges can supervise the president online.

Beijing News: what are the biggest difficulties encountered at the beginning of the implementation?

Chen Mingguo: at the beginning, many judges were not very receptive, especially some old judges, who thought they had increased their workload.

But when they get used to it, most judges are very positive.

In addition, before the president, the president did not supervise.

Not now. The case is reported to the president and the president on the Internet.

As a president or dean, if you do not approve, delay or cause problems, you have to be responsible.

Before, the president and the president wanted to approve the notes, but not now, because they are all visible on the Internet.

Beijing News: after the implementation of the system, has the rate of misjudged cases dropped?

Chen Mingguo: there must have been a decline.

Let me give you an example. Now that the referee is online, the error rate has been greatly reduced and the quality of documents has been improved.

Online synchronization can be replicated.

Beijing News: Western courts are completely independent of judges. Is there such a suspicion of Sichuan's interference in the independence of judges?

Chen Mingguo: Western emphasis is on individual independence of judges. The supervision of judges relies more on self-discipline, which is based on the strict selection system of judges.

China's judge selection system is not the same as that of the West. It is close to the selection of civil servants and is in pition. Therefore, the judges' high quality protection is not enough, and it is totally impossible for judges to rely on self-discipline.

However, online supervision will not interfere with the normal handling of judges.

Beijing News: do you think this supervision can be duplicated?

Chen Mingguo: I think it should be reproducible. At least it should be the direction of development. The Supreme Court has been affirmed on many occasions.

It is a general direction that the trial of the court is gradually open to the public.

We are also considering that the system is open to the public in more ways.
