Litigation activities

1. Litigation activities are also called litigation activities, which refer to the activities carried out by judicial organs and litigants in accordance with legal procedures. A legal act that has the effect of litigation. This includes the filing, investigation, prosecution, detention, arrest, and trial of criminal cases by judicial organs; the acceptance, investigation, evidence collection, and mediation of civil cases, as well as the parties prosecuting, responding to lawsuits, providing evidence, and conducting debates or defenses.

2. In addition to the conditions for general legal actions, litigation actions must also meet the conditions stipulated in the Procedural Law. That is to say: the case must be under the jurisdiction of the judicial authorities; the parties must have the capacity to be litigants, the criminal perpetrators must have the capacity for criminal responsibility, and both have the capacity to litigate (people without the capacity to litigate shall be prosecuted by their litigation agents in accordance with the law).

The case must have not yet been determined by a court judgment (cases in which judgments and rulings have taken effect will be handled according to trial supervision procedures); those that are handled before filing must have a complaint from the victim, etc., and civil lawsuits must be filed by the parties .

3. Since civil litigation procedures occupy a basic position among the three major litigation procedures, the following section will focus on civil litigation behaviors and their adjustment rules.
