"Guiding opinions on several problems of Beijing Higher People's court trial of cases of disputes over contracts of sale (Trial)" description


In the "contract of saleContract law of the people's Republic of China"(hereinafter referred to asContract LawProvisions of the contract) the first, also the most detailed provisions, the adjudication of disputes in the principles and criteria need to follow to often also be other famous contract by reference. In recent years, the city's three commercial court court of contract cases each year are more than million, accounted for 1/5 of all cases, far higher than other types of economic disputes. Therefore, the quality of the trial contract cases, the commercial trial work play a decisive role.
In order to further summarize and explore the trial of cases of disputes over a contract for the sale of the experience and ideas, standardize people's Court (hereinafter referred to as the court) discretion, unified sale contract dispute cases the referee scale, self2006Years, the Beijing Municipal Higher People's Court (hereinafter referred to as the Beijing High Court) two people court specialized collegial panel, responsibility for the special investigation on contract cases.2008Years, the Beijing High Court established the vice president Zhu Jiang as the group responsible person, to2005Years-2007The annual sale contract dispute cases of second instance,2007Apply the ordinary procedure of first instance as the final year of the contract for the sale of disputes, as well as the Beijing high court trial supervision tribunal since2001Years of re trial sale contract dispute case, a total of500Judgment and pieces of cases are analyzed, at the same time to strengthen the work of grass-roots court investigation supervision and online collection of problems, the understanding and operation of the common problems, summary of the problems are classified and summarized. On this basis, screening the law does not provide, or legal provisions are not clear, or there are provisions in the law but not the problem, the formation of "guiding opinions of the higher people's Court of Beijing city contract cases (for Trial Implementation)" (hereinafter referred to as the guidance).
In the guiding opinions from draft to draft the guidance issued a formal process, we held several seminars, including the Beijing high court two people court court meeting and full court seminar, the Beijing first intermediate people's court jurisdiction court seminar, Beijing second intermediate people's Court of jurisdiction court seminar, experts in experts civil law supreme court justice Wang Chuang, Peking University professor Liu Kaixiang, Tsinghua University professor Cui Jianyuan, Professor Zhang Xinbao of Renmin University, eventually on trial sale contract disputes are common, and solution ideas more clearly, accurately grasp the problem, clearly classify.2008Years12Month15Day, guidance by the Beijing high court trial committee of the23Time (total227Time) is discussed by the conference. Understanding and application of the guiding opinions of specific provisions as follows:

Understanding and application of Article 1: the repayment agreement is established in the sale contract basis, although the seller has the right to claim the rights according to the repayment agreement, the prosecution case from the self, such as creditor's rights dispute (debt disputes), but if the buyer in the case of the trial to fulfill the contract of sale the fact of defense, and even the the effectiveness of contract for the sale of such problems, try the repayment agreement, contract to fulfill the basic problems of facts and effect cannot be identified and determined, the final is not helpful to solve the contradictions and disputes, is not conducive to discover the truth. Therefore, starting from the actual effect of dispute, when the buyer on the sale of the validity of the contract or the performance of the fact of a defense, not the repayment agreement independent of the contract of sale and tried separately, but carries on the adjustment to the prosecution case, the validity of the contract and fulfill the fact trial identification. Of note, the validity of the contract and fulfill the fact trial, does not deny the repayment agreement, the repayment agreement should be important evidence for the fulfillment of the contract; if the repayment agreement contains legal invalid acts have illegal interest, the court should be to identify and handle.

Understanding and application of article second: such disputes are common in construction site building materials supermarket distribution, logistics distribution and hotel food source material distribution, door-to-door delivery, but does not rule out the buyer from the case. Because there is no written contract, it is easy to cause disputes, the parties are usually not recognized the signer is its staff, or not recognized sign person have the right to represent its signature. According to the"Who advocates, who bears the burden of proof"The rules of evidence, there is sale contract that party shall bear the burden of proof, but it is often a contract relationship in a vulnerable side, can manifest as to clearing single, signature certification, unable to further proof, it seems as long as the other simple denial signature can be pushed over the claim (negative facts without proof). In order to solve this contradiction, this article considers no written contract signed, people often change, as well as on the weak side appropriate protection situation, one is that the denial to proof, two is the proof is not blindly insist that the rights of one party, and is asking the court to proceed from reality, combined with the transaction between the parties, the transaction practices and the proof ability difference, the delivery man can submit additional evidence (including indirect evidence), for example a apparent evidence, to analyze and judge. When necessary, the court can also according to the authority for adducing evidence objection or court. Need to pay attention to is, the form requirements from goods receipt of and extent of the examination should be more than door-to-door strictly.

Understanding and application of article third: reconciliation confirmation, creditor's rights confirmation is a kind of creditor's rights, the creditor does not bear the name (without looking up), does not affect the authenticity of the contents, namely the people in debt issued by the fact that. From the analysis of normal logic, if there is no evidence that the CDO is illegal, holders of debt obligations is the lawful possession. At the same time, have determined the debtor shall pay off a debt to who, the existence of creditor's rights transfer situation, did not affect the debtor the burden of debt burden of fact and. So that the creditor's rights holder is the creditor or as creditors, there is nothing wrong. This facilitates the transaction order and stability, promote market circulation. Note that, if a party concerned claims CDO is each other of illegally acquired, shall bear the burden of proof.

Understanding and application of article fourth of the contract: the object shall belong to the seller is entitled to dispose of all or,Contract LawArticleArticle fifty-one, No.Article one hundred and thirty-two, No.Article one hundred and fiftyHave made clear. The guidance andContract LawThe regulations are not contradictory. Because in a market economy, the sale of a wide variety of goods, the sale of a variety of ways, is to buy low and sell high is a common form of modern trade. The provisions of this article relating to the case, is common in the genus trading activities, such as the conclusion of the sales contracts, the seller did not goods, according to the contract of sale agreed conditions, their home as the buyer to the procurement of goods, and then sold to the buyer, to profit or profit. Therefore, in order to get the ownership of the property for sale contract future matter, can be accomplished, not necessarily have no ownership or right of disposition and disposition of the property of others. This article focuses on the contract expires this point in time, before the seller at this point in time to obtain the ownership of the subject matter or disposition can, and do not have to be at the conclusion of the contract the only point in time. If the time of performance the seller did not obtain the ownership of the subject matter or disposition but punishment subject matter, belong toContract LawArticleArticle fifty-one, No.Article one hundred and thirty-two, No.Article one hundred and fiftyIssues concerning adjustment.

Understandings and applications for fifth:Contract LawArticleArticle seventy-oneThe first paragraph: the obligee may reject the obligor's early performance, except where such early performance does not harm the interests of the creditors. This guidance is the concrete operation problem solving the above provisions in the contract of sale. The seller to deliver the subject matter isContract LawThe rights conferred, because after all changed the performance of the contract agreed by the parties, so to the interests of the buyers, which does not damage does not increase their burden as the premise. Therefore, whether to support the seller to deliver the subject matter, we must first consider the protection of the interests of the buyer issues. Prior notice to the buyer and given the time required for preparation, both for the buyer to accept the subject matter of the preparatory work, in order to give full play to the subject matter of the utility, also bought rights by the people of the. Also, because the seller unilaterally changed the contract agreed by the parties, so if the relationship to the buyer pays the price for the period of interest is paid in advance, or in accordance with the original contract time to pay the price, choose the right should belong to the buyer.

Understanding and application of article sixth: if the delivery of the object, the core problem relating to the ownership of the object and subject matter of risk burden in the sale contract. The first case the provisions of this article is easy to understand and grasp. The key is the second case, the compulsory measures is the buyer and have paid the full price of the circumstances, direct provision"The subject matter is deemed to have been delivered", and does not give the seller the option.

The calculation of losses, positive loss better grasp and calculation, is to reduce the observant party existing assets, including expenditure. As for the possible benefits, is consistent with the performance benefits, looking forward to the benefit of the meaning of the contract is performed, if the other party, based on contract can enjoy, and because the breach, return so that it can not enjoy in fact trading.

Therefore, this guidance does not specify the form of deposit, only practice visible Breach Deposit, cancellation deposit were distinguished, regulations. For breach of deposit and liquidated damages in the objective, nature, function and so on is basically the same, so the two can not be used, but by the observant party choice. According to the "Guaranty Law of the people's Republic"Interpretation of several issues in ChapterArticle one hundred and seventeenProvisions, parties can deposit for the cost of termination of the contract, regardless of whether the contract constitutes a breach of contract, so the cancellation deposit and liquidated damages in the objective, nature, function and so on are different, the two can also be used.
