| Forum Non-Convenience is system whereby the court may,upon the request of a party,decide to discontinue a civil or commercial lawsuit inelving foreign elements. The concept of forum nonconvenience took form in the 17th century and was perfected in the 20th century. Applying this system in China on the basis of reciprocity is conducive to the achievement of fairness and efficiency and does not contradict the principle of state sovereignty. The application of this system requires the following conditions:the court that accepts the case has jurisdiction over the case,the result of the lawsuit has no major impact on the national interest,and there is a dispute over the procedure. The court should use different methods in applying this doctrine. |
