Court Development

With the transformation of Yangpu District from an old industrial district to a national innovative district, the number of various cases accepted by Yangpu District People's Court has been increasing, and about 22,000 cases were accepted every year in recent years. Centering on the main work line of 'trial based on the actual circumstances of Yangpu District, paying attention to the people's livelihood in judicial practice, and serving the development of an innovative district', the Court effectively performed its duties entrusted by the Constitution and laws and has made new progress in work.

In light of the national construction of innovative pilot districts, the Court set up the Intellectual Property Tribunal and the Financial Tribunal to boost the development of the knowledge-based economy and serve the financial, scientific and technological innovation of Yangpu District. It took the initiative to implement the community judge working system in the city by considering the actual circumstance of the District and public opinions and established the litigation and mediation transition center featuring the mode of allocating more judicial resources to grass-roots sectors, forming a diversified dispute settlement mechanism in alignment with the characteristic of Yangpu District.

In recent years, the Court conscientiously implemented the criminal policy of tempering justice with mercy to steadily promote the pilot work of sentencing standardization. The Court attached great importance to cases involving people's livelihood, and made great efforts to resolve problems affecting the immediate interests of the people. It adhered to the concept of mediation first, promoted financial trials, continued to uphold and improve such systems as 'Judge Letter' on student loan and other disputes, so as to establish and improve the social credit system, further promoting solutions to disputes with both judicial and administrative means. It strengthened IPR protection and has closed a number of cases of social concerns. It combined trial with mediation, attached importance to both trial and implementation, and promoted the '3+1' mode for IPR trial which gave full play to the role of criminal, civil, administrative and judicial protection.
