摘要
台湾地区为化解家事审判案件持续增长的压力,历经十余年激烈论争,于2012年颁行"家事事件法"。该法案的主要内容是综合运用诉讼和非讼法理,创新家事争议解决程序。其主要特点是:将家事事件类型化并做专门化处理;统合处理家事案件;扩大调解程序的适用范围;注重维护弱势群体利益;引入社工陪同、强制当事人医学检查等辅助制度;充分利用科技手段减少家事争议处理成本。该法案的成效尚待实践检验,但其改革家事司法机制、提高家事纠纷处理效率、加强保护家庭弱者、促进家庭关系和睦的理念和制度设计,值得借鉴。
In order to alleviate the enduring and heightened pressure of family case trials,after over ten years of heated debates,Taiwan's'Family Causes Act'was enacted in 2012. The major contribution in the Act is the creation of a new family dispute resolution program based on combining the utilization of litigation with non-litigation theories. It has the following major features: categorization of family causes coupled with specialized treatment; integrated treatment of cases of family causes; expansion of the scope of application; emphasis on the protection of the interests of the underprivileged; introduction of the system of social workers' company and enforcement of medical examination of the clients; reduction of the cost of settling family disputes by advanced technology. Although the efficiency of the Act is yet to be tested in practice,it is worth drawing on due to its ingenuity in institutional design such as the reform of the judicial system for family cause cases,improvement of efficiency in settling family disputes,enhanced protection for the weak in families and promotion of harmonious family relationship.
