The list of case issues is not a formal legal litigation document, but only my experience and practice in the process of ** case, and it is a list of questions and answers about the relevant details of each case formed in the process of handling the case.
In every litigation case, from the beginning of contact with the client to understand the basic facts of the case, to the review and collection of evidence, to the preparation of litigation documents, etc., there will be continuous problems with certain factual details of the case, the application of law, and the litigation procedure.
Because there is often a time lag between the generation of questions and the acquisition of answers, write down your questions first so as not to forget, and then write them in after getting the answers, or the guidance for answers, so as to form a useful list of detailed questions.
1. It is convenient to efficiently grasp the valuable details of the case.
All issues related to the case will not be fully reflected in the complaint, reply, evidence catalogue and other basic legal documents, there will be many answers to relevant questions that need to be understood and recorded.
2. It can be used as an important supporting material for the trial.
For some details of the case, it is much faster to find the information on the list than to rummage through the information, and it is more reliable than to recall it yourself.
3. Facilitate the handover and management of cases.
If the first person needs other colleagues to take over the case halfway, the receiver can use this list to start the case more conveniently and quickly. After the case is concluded, the list of questions is stored in the file as materials, which can also help later reviewers quickly understand the details of the case.
The list of questions can be basically done with an excel**, and the five items of "serial number", "question type", "question", "answer" and "answer time" can be used as a column and column list. Of course, you can also adjust it according to your needs.
The "problem types" can be divided into facts, applicable laws, and procedures. For example, before the trial, you can filter the questions according to the type of questions, and then print out the appropriate list for use.
