Li Xiaoli, deputy to the National People's Congress (NPC) and dispatcher of Hefei-based Fenghua Auto Parts Co Ltd, conducted a survey at the People's Court of Feidong County in Anhui province on May 7.
Noticing that the court's litigation service center has become more spacious with improved sections for case filing, execution, litigation docking and self-service filing and an additional eight new service windows and self-service equipment locations, Li delightfully said that litigation services have further developed and the many details reflect the court's efforts to provide people with better and more considerate judicial services.
Li learned that the court set up a center to handle litigation through mediation and recruited 120 mediators for it in July 2019. Seven of them are stationed at the court to conduct pre-litigation mediation, with judicial assistants ready to record judicial confirmation of successful pre-litigation mediations. During the first four months of this year, the number of pre-litigation mediation cases obtaining judicial confirmation reached 1,008.
The court has achieved great progress in the building of a one-stop litigation service center and a one-stop multi-dispute settlement mechanism, according to Li.
Cao Haiqing, the court’s president, said that between January and April this year, the court received 6,064 new cases and concluded 4,108, with the number of concluded cases and the case conclusion rate increasing by 18.49 percent and 13.53 percent respectively from a year earlier, a leading result among the province’s grassroots courts.
Cao also said that the reason why during the period of the epidemic prevention and control the number of handled cases rose instead of falling is because the court outsourced all its judicial auxiliary affairs, freeing judges from tedious affairs and helping them concentrate on handling cases. The court has also deepened the reform to separate complicated cases from simple ones, and set up six quick-trial teams to handle simple cases. During the first four months of this year, 1,960 cases were concluded, accounting for 78.34 percent of all the civil and commercial cases handled by the court.
Li said that she is proud of the court for its considerate services for the people and its commitment to law enforcement and appropriate trial procedures.
