"攻击防御方法"之平衡--简论民事证据调查令制度

在民事诉讼中,程序正义原则要求法院保障当事人诉讼地位平等,不仅应消极对待双方当事人,而且要积极辅助在"攻击防御方法"掌控上出于弱势的一方当事人.我国民事诉讼法对当事人和律师收集证据的手段和程序之规定既不利于当事人"攻击防御方法"的平衡,又有违法院中立地位的要求.我国应当在借鉴西方发达国家民事诉讼法中当事人取证制度的基础上建立并完善民事证据调查令制度.

On the balance of "attacking and defending methods"--On civil affairs evidence investigation system

In civil proceedings,procedural justice principle requires court to protect the equal position of parties,not only to inactively treat both parties but also to help weak party by using "attacking and defending methods". The methods and procedures which China's civil proceeding law collects evidence from parties and lawyers are not only unhelpful to the balance of parties' attacking and defending methods but also violating position requirement of the courts.On the basis of learning procedure for taking evidence in civil proceeding law of developed countries,China should establish and consummate civil evidence investigation system.
