司法改革进行时——从摸着石头过河到顶层设计——对三中全会《决定》有关司法改革规定的解读

党的十八大提出要进一步深化司法体制改革,并把司法公信力不断提高作为全面建设小康社会的内容。十八届三中全会把司法改革纳入建设法治中国的总体布局之中统一部署,从司法制度体制机制程序等方面提出了诸多改革举措,从而实现了司法改革由摸着石头过河向项层设计的重大转变。目前,司法改革与其他改革一样进入了深水区,深化司法体制改革的挑战和任务十分艰巨,社会各界在改什麽、如何改等问题上也是见仁见智。应杂志邀请,我们将学习三中全会决定的初步体会并就有关司法改革的具体内容,谈一点个人见解。其中王敏远教授谈的话题是司法改革的目标,蒋惠岭法官谈的话题是审判权运行机制的改革,我则就决定规定司法改革的总体情况谈了看法。     

Should Banks Change Their Environmental Due Diligence Policies to Reflect the Revised USEPA Rule on All Appropriate Inquiry?

This article raises questions about the environmental due diligence programs common among lenders and suggests changes. The article describes the statutory, regulatory, and case law changes that have largely eliminated the liability risk that caused lenders to institute due diligence programs, and questions whether lenders have an interest in requiring borrowers to follow the new ASTM standard. The article examines the differences between environmental liabilities and environmental costs and explains why those differences should be taken into account. Finally, the article recommends a case-by-case approach to dealing with environmental issues rather than the simplistic view that looks at environmental due diligence as a yes or no question.
