In the past 16 years, the PRC Civil Procedure Law has played an important role in safeguarding the civil rights and interests of the parties and regulating the conduct of the other relevant participants in litigation. However, with the rapid development of China's economy and the increasingly complex and elaborate Chinese legal system, more and more civil and commercial disputes have arisen in recent years and aggrieved parties are more willing than ever to resort to court to resolve their disputes. This has created the need for a revised version of the legislation with more specific guidance and rules, especially regarding retrial and enforcement procedures.
