民事诉讼证据合法性的重新解读

证据的形式对民事诉讼证据的合法性没有影响;收集证据的主体对民事诉讼证据的合法性有一定影响,应当区别情况,分别对待;收集证据的程序对民事诉讼证据的合法性有较大影响,但总体上应当从宽;实体法的特别规定不应作为判断民事诉讼证据是否合法的标准。民事诉讼在证据合法性的解读上应当不同于刑事诉讼,总体上应当更加宽松、灵活。

Re-interpretation of the Legitimacy of Evidence in Civil Proceedings

The form of evidence is insignificant to the legitimacy of evidence in civil proceedings,while the subject of evidence collection will to some extent affect the legitimacy of evidence so that different situations should be considered respectively.The procedure of evidence collection is an influential fact to the legitimacy of evidence in civil proceedings,but in general it should be interpreted leniently.Special provisions in substantial law should not be the criterion of legitimacy of evidence in civil proceed- ings.In principle,the interpretation of the legitimacy of evidence in civil proceedings shall differ from which in criminal pro- ceedings and apply a doctrine more liberal and flexible.
