Abstract

The synchronous development and interactive use of information network technology and judicial practice have become an irreversible trend and a sign of the evolution of the technology-society-law complex, and are also the products of the accumulation of legal practice. This article, from the perspective of the existing rules of asynchronous trial in the Internet court of our country, through sorting out the basis of asynchronous trial mode in the current network environment, takes this as the entry point, connects the legitimacy issues, procedural law connection issues, judicial openness issues, and trial distortion risks faced by asynchronous trial in our civil litigation procedures, explores the roots of the corresponding problems and risks, and provides some useful insights into how to improve the asynchronous trial mode of our court practice.
