Leading Judicial Openness

In a speech on the significance of judicial openness, ZHOU Qiang, President of the Supreme People’s Court, mentioned our work:

“Stanford University [‘s China Guiding Cases Project] has translated into English all the Guiding Cases released by the Supreme People’s Court in recent years and made them available on [their] website for judges, lawyers, and scholars around the globe to analyze and review.”

“美国斯坦福大学已将最高人民法院近年发布的指导性案例全部译成英文,放在统一的网页上,供世界各国法官、律师和学者分析、点评。”

“I find the SLS CGCP to provide excellent resources for and further stimulate my research interest in Chinese law and its fast-paced development. The CGCP is uniquely designed and provides excellent opportunities to engage with many top fellows around the globe in intellectually challenging discussion.

“It is very impressive that Stanford is home to such a meaningful program that follows the judicial progress of China. I feel honored to be a member and to make a contribution, however small in comparison to Dr. Mei Gechlik and other core team members. It is such a great opportunity to work with talented people around the world. The Guiding Case and subsequent cases I have focused on in my experience with the CGCP can help me to better solve my client’s real problems. I hope this meaningful program will benefit more people!” — Jingan Yan, Counsel, Broad & Bright
