中国内地和香港的同案重复诉讼问题（中文摘要）

随着中国内地与香港跨境经济活动的增加和融合，近几年跨境纠纷也相应增加。同一案件经常在中国内地和香港两地提起诉讼。这不仅浪费了当事人的时间和资源，也消耗了司法资源，从而浪费了纳税人的钱。而且，由于在内地和香港两个不同法域进行审判，争议会拖延较长时间，对两地经济交流和融合带来不确定性和风险。这种重复诉讼导致的另一问题是两个不同法域的法院会作出不同的判决。在中国对香港恢复主权统治之後，有人或许以为这一问题会比较容易解决；但事实并非如此。本文将讨论如何解决同一案件在中港两地重复诉讼的问题。

Duplicated Litigation of the Same Case n Hong Kong and Mainland China

With the increase of cross-border economic activities and integration between Hong Kong and mainland China, cross-border disputes are also increasing over the years. It has happened on many occasions that the same case has been litigated in both Hong Kong and mainland China. It is a waste of not only the time and resources of the parties involved but also judicial resources which is in turn a waste of tax payers＇ money. Moreover, disputes will drag on much longer due to duplicated litigation in two different jurisdictions and add uncertainty and risk to economic exchange and integration between Hong Kong and mainland China.
