Specialized jurisdiction for specific criminal cases

Mondo Social Updated on 2024-02-23

Today, I will introduce to you the jurisdiction of relatively unfamiliar and special criminal cases, which is the jurisdiction of special courts, also known as the jurisdiction of special courts, which refers to the jurisdiction system of specific criminal cases that are tried only by special people's courts or mainly by specialized people's courts.

In China, we can also understand it as special jurisdiction. In fact, it is the division of authority between the specialized people's courts and the ordinary people's courts, and between the various specialized people's courts, in accepting first-instance criminal cases, and the resolution of the issues of which cases are tried by the specialized people's courts and which types of specialized people's courts are to be tried. In China, the specialized people's courts with jurisdiction over criminal cases mainly include military courts and railway transport courts.

1.Cases under the jurisdiction of military courts.

Military courts mainly hear criminal cases involving members of the armed forces.

Article 26 of the Supreme People's Court's Interpretation stipulates that in criminal cases involving the military and local governments, jurisdiction shall be determined in accordance with relevant provisions. Generally speaking, where military and non-military personnel commit crimes together, the military court and the local people's court or other specialized court have jurisdiction respectively. Note, however, that the local courts will not care if state military secrets are involved, and the military courts will have jurisdiction over the entire case.

2.Cases under the jurisdiction of the Railway Transport Court.

The Railway Transport Court is mainly responsible for hearing criminal cases related to the railway system or occurring in the process of railway transportation, mainly including: (1) criminal cases that occur in the railway work area; (2) Criminal cases against railway equipment and facilities; (3) Crimes committed on trains; (4) Cases of job-related crimes in the railway transportation system.

It should be noted that in the current judicial reform, some places have transferred railway transport cases to the jurisdiction of local courts.

Generally speaking, through special jurisdiction, specialized and specialized trials of specific types of cases can be realized, which can reduce the work burden of ordinary courts to a certain extent, improve trial efficiency, and better safeguard social fairness and justice.
