从程序设置视角对检察院作为环境公益诉讼原告的质疑

Discussing the People's Procuratorate as the Plaintiff of Environmental Public Interest Litigation from the Perspective of Procedure Setting

新《民诉法》规定"法律规定的有关机关"可以提起公益诉讼,人民检察院作为环境公益诉讼的原告便有了法律依据。但人民检察院作为环境公益诉讼原告与其法律监督职能相悖,同时也不符合实体公正要求,并且检察院作为环境公益诉讼原告还会导致相应公益诉讼在二审、再审中出现程序主体重叠的问题。所以,为保障程序正义,从程序设置视角来看,人民检察院不宜作为环境公益诉讼的原告。

The new law of civil procedure stipulates that ＂authorities＂ may file public interest litigation so that the People＇s Procuratorate as the environmental public interest litigation has a legal basis.However,the People＇s Procuratorate as the plaintiff is against with its function of legal supervision and the requirements of entity justice,which will lead to collisions of subject of litigation of environmental public interest litigation in the Procedure of Second Instance or in the Retrial Procedure.As the result,in order to guarantee the justice of procedure,from setting of procedure perspective,the People＇s Procuratorate should not be considered the plaintiff of the environmental public interest litigation.
