Court takes steps to improve foreign-related case handling

The Supreme People’s Court (SPC) of China is planning to interpret the foreign-related provisions of the Civil Procedure Law to improve the quality of case handling, as the country increases its efforts to build a market-oriented, legalized and international business environment, a senior official said.
The move comes at a time when China is seeking to reassure foreign businesses that their legal rights are protected and easily facilitated under Chinese law. The SPC has also advanced the high-level opening-up and optimization of the business environment by holding international activities to increase exchanges between judicial professionals.
