管辖规范中的合同履行地规则研究

On Performance Place Rule in Jurisdiction Specifications

关于合同案件管辖法院的确定问题,最高人民法院以司法解释的方式选择了特征履行地规则。然而,特征履行地规则由于内容烦琐,容易引发当事人的争议,产生较多问题。于是,一些法院转而采法定履行地规则,导致两种规则在实践中同时发挥作用,进一步加剧了合同案件管辖问题的混乱程度。通过比较,法定履行地规则具有内容简单、标准明确等特点,优势明显。在条件成熟时,法律应当摒弃特征履行地规则,而改采更加简单明确的规则来确定合同案件的管辖法院。

The Supreme People＇s Court in China chose the rule of characteristic performance place in the form of judicial interpretation about the questions of determining the contract cases ＇ court with jurisdiction.However,because of complex content,the rule of characteristic performance place is easy to cause the disputes between the parties,and create a lot of problems.Therefore,some of the courts determine to adopt the rule of legal performance place.But this leads to the situation that two rules play a same role at the same time in practice,which further intensified the degree of chaos of contract＇s jurisdiction problem.The rule of legal performance place has characteristics and advantages of simple content and clear standard by comparison.We should abandon the rule of characteristic performance place,and adopt the rule of legal performance place which is simpler and more clear to determine the contract cases＇ court with jurisdiction when conditions are ripe.
