Abstract:The establishment of people’s courts in townships serves not only an important measure to offer convenient litigation for ordinary people,but also an important way to better help the public.However,by investigating typical rural judicial cases,the fact shows that there are still many problems in China’s rural justice in recent years.For instance,the cases accepted by the People’s Court are narrow in the subject while wide in range,which in turn brings a heavier burden on judges; unqualified staff fail to comply with relevant litigation proceedings and handle the relationship between law and custom in a proper way,and even handle the case in an illegal way; the people’s jury supervision and restriction mechanism are far from perfect so that the image of the judges have been seriously affected.Countermeasures and suggestions are presented as follows:changing People’s Court to a special court that accepts small litigation and quick judicial arbitration,making extension in the function of People’s courts to justice and mediation,making adjustment within the Court’s assessment criteria so that some qualified judicial manpower resources can be moved to the countryside,showing substantive justice through formal justice,highlighting the procedural informing obligations of judges over typical judicial cases,highlighting the propaganda and education function of judicial documents,and fully considering the jurisdiction place of the case beneficial for the parties by corresponding program design,increasing their efforts of legal aid for special populations,and working together to build the cornerstone of rural social stability.
