摘要
6月20日,最高人民法院常务副院长沈德咏和香港特区政府律政司司长袁国强分别代表两地在香港特区签署《阅于内地与香港特别行政区法院相互认可和执行婚姻家庭民事案件判决的安排》(以下简称《婚姻家事安排》)。近年来,两地跨境婚姻每年新增2万余宗,由此所产生的婚姻家庭纠纷也呈现增长趋势。此前由于缺乏制度性安排,一地法院在两地互涉婚姻家庭案件中就夫妻财产、子女抚养等问题作出的判决无法在另一地获得认可,更不能得到执行,权利人只能通过在另一地重新起诉的方式寻求救济。
On June 20, Shen Deyong, Executive Vice-President of the Supreme Court of P.R.C., and Yuan Guoqiang (Rimsky Yuen), Secretary of Justice, respectively represented the mainland and Hong Kong to sign The Arrangement of Mutual Recognition between the Courts of China's Mainland and the Courts of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and the Implementation of the Judgement of Civil Cases Involving Marriage and Family Disputes. (Hereinafter referred as Marriage and Family Disputes Arrangement.)
