It has the highest risk parameter. Its legislative model as well as its operation in practice is closely related to the development of science and technology, the public security situation, the state of criminal offences, human rights protection, and related issues. If technical investigation is to strike a balance between crime control and human rights protection in the course of realizing the objectives of criminal procedure, we need to regulate its applicable principles, decision-making mechanisms, implementation mechanisms and remedies in accordance with law.展开更多

A relatively complete framework for the criminal procedure system has been constructed that fits in well with contemporary international thinking on criminal procedure. The Decision on Amending the Criminal Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China passed by the National People's Congress on March 14, 2012 highlights China's strenuous efforts in protecting human rights and promoting the modernization of the legal system. It also demonstrates the consolidation and absorption of the achievements of China's continuing reforms. A review of the main content of the Amendment to Criminal Procedure Law is highly significant for the further improvement of the system.展开更多

As a special contract, the choice of court agreement is so independent that its validity is governed by the law chosen by the parties or by the law of the country where the chosen court is situated in case that the choice of law is invalid. Amendments to the Civil Procedure Law (hereinafter referred to as "CPL") of People's Republic of China (2012) should not only include the jurisdiction by choice of court agreement with foreign-related elements, but also stipulate it in a more standardized way, rather than simply refer to provision of jurisdiction by choice of court agreement in domestic cases. At the same time, the CPL should make the scope of application of choice of court agreement more clear, and provide choice of law clause and its confirmative elements when deciding its effectiveness.展开更多
