Features: In China's civil litigation theory, the Civil Procedure Law is divided into narrow and broad interpretations. Narrowly defined, the Civil Procedure Law refers only to the Civil Procedure Code. Broadly defined, the Civil Procedure Law encompasses all legal norms related to civil litigation procedures, including the Civil Procedure Code, special procedures such as the Special Procedure for Maritime Litigation, as well as provisions on civil litigation procedures found in other laws, regulations, judicial interpretations, and other normative documents. As China's Civil Procedure Code, the Civil Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China provides relatively centralized and systematic regulations on civil litigation procedures. However, a single code cannot fully cover the essence of civil litigation law. Moreover, as a procedural law, it must be supported by substantive law and, together with other civil procedural laws, constitutes China's legal system for preventing and resolving civil rights and interests disputes.
Named "One-Stop Guide," the book aims to help readers gain a more comprehensive and systematic understanding of the Civil Procedure Law. The provisions of different laws, laws within the same department, and laws within China's legal system are not isolated but interconnected. In legal practice, a large number of civil procedural legal rules are scattered in other normative documents such as laws, administrative regulations, judicial interpretations, and rules, apart from the Civil Procedure Code. Books like this can significantly reduce unnecessary complications for lawyers, judges, and parties.
At the same time, as a teaching aid for legal studies, this book plays an active role in helping students gain a vivid and comprehensive understanding of China's civil legislative landscape during the teaching process. The book arranges the provisions of the principal law in order, interspersing relevant laws, administrative regulations, judicial interpretations, and important departmental rules. Of course, it does not simply "bundle" various laws together but rather summarizes, organizes, and explains all related provisions, with the aim of better solving practical issues in accordance with legal regulations.
