The arrangements signed by Hong Kong and Mainland China about the interdependence of the Mainland and the Hong Kong courts (referred to as the arrangement) will be implemented simultaneously on January 29 next year.Zhang Guojun, deputy director of the Hong Kong Department of Justice, said that this can be exempted from repeated lawsuits between the two places, but the province is long and complex.
Zhang Guojun made the above statements in an exclusive interview with the Sing Tao Daily on Thursday (November 30).
He said that the Hong Kong Department of Justice has always actively promoted the establishment and optimizing the civil and commercial mutual aid system of the Land and Hong Kong. At present, the decision of civil and business cases in the mainland hopes to be implemented in Hong Kong.The Court of High -level Court informed the court that he had won a prosecution in the mainland, but the plaintiff and the defendant still had to submit statements and evidence in accordance with the civil litigation procedures under the general law system, submitted statements and evidence, scheduled and interrogated.The same issue can only be implemented by the judge's judgment. The procedures are complex and time -consuming, so that the parties have waiting for the waiting time for the recovery of their rights in Hong Kong.
He also said that the arranges that the winner of the mainland can register his judgment with the Hong Kong High Court.At this time, the registration order will be issued to acknowledge and enforce the continental judgment.
Zhang Guojun pointed out that the procedures for arranging the judgment of the two places to implement civil and commercial cases are greatly simplified, only involving registration judgments, notifying the defeat party, and whether the loser decision will oppose the registration judgment, let the court decide whether the judgment is in lineQualification registration can be implemented when the verdict registration is successful, and there is no need to save time and effort without long -term civil litigation procedures.
Zhang Guojun reiterated that the mechanism for applying for the execution of the judgment under the regulations is by no means exchange information between the judicial institutions of the two places, and the two places will not have shared judicial information.
Lin Dingguo, the director of the Hong Kong Department of Justice Lin Dingguo, posted on Facebook earlier this month that after arranging the effectiveness, the judgment in mainland China will not take effect automatically in Hong Kong becauseThe mainland court applied for a copy of the judgment and certificates, and other documents stated by the regulations, and applied to the Hong Kong High Court's Litigation Court to register the relevant judgment.
