论中国《公司法》下的特别诉讼委员会运作——我国股东代表诉讼前置程序的延伸适用

The Exercise of Special Litigation Committee under Chinese Company Law—An Extended Application of the Demand Requirements of Derivative Suit

新《公司法》简要地规定了我国的股东代表诉讼之前置程序。这一规定的意义不仅在于公司拥有了30天和股东交涉的时间,更重要的是提示公司可以考虑设置类似美国的特别诉讼委员会的机构,做出至少形式上可信的公正审查,以期获取股东与法院认可,早日结束争议。基于中国公司实践中的客观需求和新《公司法》的条文特色,这样的类似特别诉讼委员会的机构在现行法律框架下是可操作的。

China＇s shareholder＇s representative suit （derivative suit） is briefly stipulated in the Company Law of 2005. Under it, 30 days is required before the litigation is brought, this means the company has the chance of establishing an agency resembling the special litigation committee of the U.S. , which shall make the just decision so as to convince the shareholders or the court, and settle the dispute sooner. It is plausible to operate under the current structure of Chinese law.
