        Tian Baicheng , a lawyer of Hui Cheng Law Office in Beijing China, served as legal advisor of a state owned freight forwarder company and a ship broking company for almost a dozen years after finishing his Masters Degree on civil procedure law at China Political Science and Law University. He started to be a practice lawyer in 1993 and now is a partner of the law firm. He deals with shipping and trade affairs and has developed investment and immigration business with his foreign counterparts. Intellectual properties and internet are additional areas of his practice. E-mail: tianbcts@public3.bta.net.cn

      By Tian Baicheng LONG WITH THE RAPID development of China's shipping and foreign trade, internal and external disputes on marine casualties and maritime commerce increasingly arise. As a result, maritime courts were established in principal port cities of China in 1984, in accordance with the decision by the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress (NPC). This action was taken in order to exercise China's judicial jurisdiction and to ensure timely trial of those cases to safeguard lawful rights and interests of both Chinese and foreign enterprises, organizations and citizens. The action was also taken to accelerate the development of China's shipping and foreign trade, to ensure the policy of opening door to the outside was carried out, and to invigorate the domestic economy.

The Finnish Court System
Written for Virtual Finland by Prof. Emeritus Tore Modeen, October 1999.
Background
© Unionimedia In 1809 Finland became a Grand Duchy under Russian rule. It was then given the privilege to function as an autonomous province and to retain its (Swedish) legal system. The courts of law situated in Finland simply continued to function with the same powers and applying the same legal rules as before. But as the Supreme Court in Stockholm had lost its jurisdiction over Finland, the Russian Emperor had to create a corresponding body for his Finnish Grand Duchy, namely the Judicial Department of the Finnish Senate. The Swedish Code of 1734 thus continued to serve as the law of Finland. Even today, some two hundred years after the separation of the two countries, the rules of procedure of 1734 have not, contrary to the situation in Sweden, yet been formally abolished in Finland. It is, however, obvious that only the old frame and a few articles of the Code remain in force. The contents of the Code have been revised in order to meet the requirements of a modern society. The court system of Finland has recently been reformed and thus bears very little resemblance to the system established in 1734.

Three institutions were entrusted with this responsibility: the European Commission of Human Rights (set up in 1954), the European Court of Human Rights (set up in 1959) and the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe, the latter organ being composed of the Ministers of Foreign Affairs of the member States or their representatives. the right of individual application was, however, optional and it could therefore be exercised only against those States which had accepted it (Protocol No. 11 to the Convention was subsequently to make its acceptance compulsory, see paragraph 6 below). If a case was not referred to the Court, the Committee of Ministers decided whether there had been a violation of the Convention and, if appropriate, awarded "just satisfaction" to the victim. The Committee of Ministers also had responsibility for supervising the execution of the Court’s judgments.

With the possible exception of the court papers required to obtain an absolute divorce, the procedure for drafting, filing and serving most other litigation documents is too complex and too fraught with legal peril to be attempted by even the most educated laypersons. The law has many hypertechnical rules that cannot be understood, or sufficiently mastered, without long legal study. The technical rules of the legal system govern not only what is known as the "substance" of an area of the law, such as child support, but also what is know as the "procedure." The substance of the law of separation and divorce has been discussed in the separation section of this website. Now we turn to the procedural law, or the system of rules for having substantive law declared and enforced by the court system.
Put most simply, procedure is the entire body of rules directing litigants about how to use the judicial system. The rules dictate, for instance, who can file a claim or some other paper, when it can be filed, where it must be filed, how it must be filed in order to be validly brought before the court, how it can be served on the other party, the time limits for responses to the claim, how a hearing is to be noticed, how a trial is to be conducted, how a remedy granted by the court is to be enforced, and similar matters. The principal peril in failing to appreciate such procedural rules is the dismissal of a litigant's claim for lack of adherence to the rules or, possibly worse, the imposition of sanctions against a litigant who makes an inappropriate move at the courthouse in terms of procedure.

    An Overview of Small Claims Litigation
    The "jurisdiction" of a court is the power of that court to hear and decide a particular type of case. The small claims court has jurisdiction over civil cases in which the plaintiff is seeking a money judgment up to $2,000 or recovery of personal property valued up to $2,000. In trials before the small claims court, witnesses shall be sworn. The judge shall conduct the trial in an informal manner so as to do substantial justice between the parties. The judges shall have the discretion to admit all evidence which may be of probative value although not in accordance with formal rules of practice, procedure, pleading or evidence, except that privileged communications shall not be admissible. The object of such trials shall be to determine the rights of the litigants on the merits and to dispense expeditious justice between the parties. The successful plaintiff in a civil case will in most cases be awarded a money judgment as compensation for the defendant's wrongful act. The judgment is judicial recognition that the defendant is indebted to the plaintiff for a particular sum of money. The plaintiff is never assured of actually receiving the money, however, since the judgment can only be enforced out of property belonging to the defendant. Remedies to enforce judgments are available, but a defendant in a civil case is not subject to criminal sanctions for failing to pay a money judgment.

The Supreme Court of Virginia Contents:
History
The Supreme Court of Virginia is one of the oldest continuous judicial bodies in the United States. Its roots are deep in the English legal system dating to the early seventeenth century as part of the Charter of 1606 under which Jamestown, the first permanent English settlement in North America, was established. In 1623, the Virginia House of Burgesses created a five man appellate court which met quarterly to hear appeals from the lower courts. Meeting on the first day of March, June, September, and December, it became known as the Quarter Court. The June term became unnecessary over the years, and in 1661, the Quarter Court became the General Court with original and appellate jurisdiction in both civil and criminal matters. It was a court of last resort for the Virginia colonists except in those rare circumstances when an appeal could be made to the King in England. Its members were appointed by the King on the basis of social standing, property, and the proximity of their estates to the Williamsburg capital. Though the judges were generally most capable, the majority possessed no formal legal training. At the close of the Revolutionary War, the court system was reorganized. An act of the new General Assembly in 1779 created four superior courts, including the Supreme Court of Appeals, to be composed of judges of the other three existing courts: the Admiralty, the General, and the Chancery Courts. The Supreme Court of Appeals, which served as a model for the United States Supreme Court, first convened in Williamsburg on August 30, 1779. Shortly thereafter, the Court was moved to Richmond and held its sessions in the Henrico County Courthouse. Its jurisdiction was primarily appellate, and its members were elected by the legislature.
