环境侵权救济之民事诉讼原告资格探究

A Study on Standing in Civil Litigation of the Relief for Environmental Torts

环境侵权结果须借助自然环境这一中间介质方能发生,而环境的公共性、使用的非排他性等特征决定了受损权利具有公益与私益的双重特征,这也使得提起民事诉讼救济的原告主体有私益性原告与公益性原告的区分,其诉讼请求、诉讼标的、诉讼事由、诉讼利益归属等各有不同,而上述两类原告所提之诉同属民事救济的两种渠道、两个诉讼,可以合并或单独审理。

The environmental torts will not take place without natural environment,which plays the role of intermediate medium.The environment belongs to everyone and nobody can use it exclusively.Thus,both public and private interests rely on it.When a case is brought to the court,we should differentiate between public interest plaintiff and private interest plaintiff.Because different plaintiff has different complain,different object of litigation; different cause of action and so on.The character of civil litigation taken by different kind of plaintiff is not the same. They are two kinds of civil litigation and can be heard together or separately.
