民事撤诉若干问题探析

Issues on Withdrawal of Civil Lawsuit

在诉讼系属中,法院准许原告撤回对部分被告、第三人的起诉,一般应当制作书面裁定书。法院传票传唤原告而原告无正当理由拒不到庭的,如果未经开庭审理,则可以按撤诉处理;如果已经开庭审理,则不宜按撤诉处理,而应当依法做出相应裁判;传票传唤的事由包括开庭和询问。原告撤回在诉讼时效内的起诉,应当具有中断诉讼时效的效力。

In the course of the litigation proceedings, when the court permits the plaintiff to withdraw the claim on the defendant, or the third party, a written order should be delivered. The plaintiff may be deemed to withdraw the action if he refuses to appear in court without good reasons upon receiving a summons. But once the trial is star- ted, it cannot be withdrawn and shall be carried out in accordance with the law. Plaintiff＇ s withdrawal of the law- suit filed within the statute of limitations shall have the effect of interrupting the statute of limitations.
