新《民事诉讼法》对证据规定的改进、不足及建议

Inadequacy of and Suggestions for the Proof Stipulation in Civil Procedure Amendment

新《民事诉讼法》对证据方面的内容作了较大的改动,增加了电子数据证据,改"鉴定结论"为"鉴定意见",并且在此基础上对原来的证据排列体系作了调整。为了防止诉讼突袭,还特意规定证据必须经法定程序查证属实,才能作为认定事实的根据。这些改动无疑是一大进步。但同时,我们也发现,新《民事诉讼法》关于证据的规定仍存在一些不足,最主要的是没有彻底解决现行法律关于证据分类前瞻性不足的问题。

Civil procedure amendment makes some improvement in proof stipulation, for example, adding the electronic evidence to the provision, changing ＂expert conclusion＂ into ＂expert opinion＂, and accordingly adjusting the original evidence system. To prevent litigation raid, civil procedure amendment also emphasizes that evidence must be verified by the statutory procedures before judges depend it to ascertain facts. Despite its progress, civil procedure amendment leaves some old problems in proof stipulation untouched, among which the prospective deficiency in evidence classification is prominent.
