拾得人报酬请求权研究

A Study on the Finder's Right of Asking for Rewards

拾得人可否主张报酬请求权,在实践中产生了很多的争议,并非简单地删除,而是应该完善。其一是减少报酬请求权的数额;其二是限制拾得人报酬请求权的行使,对于经济贫困及其他的弱势群体不得行使报酬请求权;其三是限制拾得人留置权的行使。留置权非在任何情形下都得行使。首先,拾得人行使留置权必须是费用或者报酬与该拾得物有牵连关系。其次,如果遗失人提供相当的担保,则拾得人须先返还遗失物,留置权消灭。

There is in practice a huge controversy over whether the finder of a lost good has the right to ask for rewards. We should not simply annul the right but improve it: Firstly, reduce the amount the finder asks for; secondly, restrict the implementation of the right for the finder to ask for rewards; thirdly, restrict the implementation of the finder’s lien on the good. It points out that lien can be implemented only under some conditions. First, the implementation of the finder’s lien must be related to the cost or reward; second, if the loser provides enough guarantee, the finder must firstly return the good and the lien is annihilated simultaneously.
