检察机关提起民事公益诉讼与其职责的冲突与协调

Conflict and Coordination of the Procuratorial Organ Bringing Civil Public Lawsuit and Its Power of Legal Supervision

公益诉讼制度在我国的确立,对于加强社会公共利益的保护具有十分重要的意义。但是检察机关在提起民事公益诉讼时,却与其承担的审判监督职责在一定程度上存在冲突。这种冲突具体表现为双重身份的冲突、角色性质的冲突以及价值追求的冲突。这三类冲突不仅影响了民事诉讼结构的平衡,更影响到了民事审判结果的公信力。因此,亟需通过限制检察机关在民事公益诉讼中的相关诉讼权利和诉讼义务、调整其履行审判监督职责的时间等,以构建合理的制度来协调上述冲突,充分发挥检察机关在保护社会公共利益方面的作用。

The civil public lawsuit institution has been built in China, which can help enhance the protection to the publicinterest. But it may cause conflict when the procuratorial organ brings civil public lawsuit in the meantime it also undertakesthe power of legal supervision. This kind of conflict can be divided into three types ： the conflict of the two identities, theconflict of the essentiality of the two roles and the conflict of the two value pursuits. The three types of conflicts not only affectthe balance of the structure of the civil procedure, but also affect the credibility of the judgment. So we need to builda kind of institution that can coordinate with the conflict, aiming at making good use of the procuratorial organ ’ s function inprotecting the public interest.
