Different from binding precedents in the common law system, China′s GCS requires judges in the people′s courts at all levels to refer to guiding cases when adjudicating similar cases. Although the GCS is expected to improve China′s judicial system, making the GCS a reality is a challenge because the GCS is a relatively new concept to judicial organs in China, and requires a broad understanding of the legal rationale of guiding cases and their interaction with the domestic legal system. As a result, implementing the GCS in China has been challenging. It has been suggested that these challenges be addressed through the defining of the criteria for guiding case selection, by unifying the release method of guiding cases, regulating the application of guiding cases, by clarifying the relevant provisions on 'refer to', 'should refer to' and 'similar cases', and finally by setting up incentive and supervision mechanisms and promoting judicial reform in China.展开更多
