jiang_junluliang_lindaxu_xiaodan2017年4月24日,北京市高级人民法院、北京市劳动人事争议仲裁委员会联合公布了《关于审理劳动争议案件法律适用问题的解答》(“《解答》”)。在起草和讨论阶段,这份解答通常被称作“《会议纪要(三)》”。《解答》立意深远,敢于直面争议,试图在疑难问题上作出统一的审理尺度,在起草之初便被寄以厚望。

我们密切关注了《解答》的酝酿全程,并从执业律师的角度向起草单位提出了诸多建议。总的来说,我们预期《解答》可以迎合《劳动合同法》的修改呼声,在审理尺度上为用工管理提供一些灵活性。但是,从最终的成文来看,这份文件仅仅部分实现了预期目标,反而在个别问题上对企业的要求趋于严格。

惊喜有之、遗憾有之,《解答》干货十足,我们将分三期与各位分享。 Continue Reading 试用期解除终于比离婚简单了——北京最新劳动争议审理意见解读(一)

schaub_m1Many international companies that have seen sales of product rocket via Chinese ecommerce celebrated the March 17 Announcement by MOFCOM (i.e. a press release regarding the supervision of products imported through cross-border ecommerce (“CBEC Products”) during and after the extended grace period) as a signal that the good times will continue to roll. As stated in our previous article[1] we had concerns that many were reading too much into the March 17 Announcement and in particular the Chinese authorities would continue to have concerns about ensuring consumer safety.

Recently, Xiaoming Yuan, the Deputy Director-General of the Financial Department of the Ministry of Commerce (“MOFCOM”) in an interview with Oriental Outlook provided useful background about the context and implications of the March 17 Announcement.

ye_bill忙忙碌碌地过去了两个多月,没有来得及更新,感谢最高院的德发案,逼着自己在这个时候熬夜写文章。其实,判决结果在我而言,颇有点预料之外情理之中的感觉。所谓预料之外,是因为判决本身的诸多推论都未做探讨,所谓情理之中,是大概纠结很久也就是这个结果。结合之前的期待和考量,试着做一篇判决,题为我心目中的德发案判决。其实,德发案的最高法判决,思路清晰,进步明显,虽然纠结再三,结果也大概无法改变,不知天高地厚地写成此文,主文仍然遵循了最高法的思路,只是在兜兜转转之间寻求问题的平衡。又如那句老话说的,一千个人眼中有一千个哈姆雷特,每个法律人心中大概都有一个自己认为最理想的判决考虑吧。

基于简要考虑,下面的判决就不再赘述判决的部分内容。

untitled2017年5月2日,国家互联网信息办公室(“网信办”)在其官方网站上连续发布了《网络产品和服务安全审查办法(试行)》(“《审查办法》”)、《互联网新闻信息服务管理规定》(“《管理规定》”)以及《互联网信息内容管理行政执法程序规定》(“《程序规定》”)。我们前两天分别分析了《审查办法》和《管理规定》,今天将介绍《程序规定》的特色以及主要内容。

如果说《管理规定》是在2005年规定的基础上的“老瓶换新酒”,《程序规定》则是《网络安全法》(“《网安法》”)下出台的第一部程序性部门规章。和《审查办法》“画龙画虎先画骨”的立法技术不同,《程序规定》在《行政处罚法》的基本原则下做到“统一协调、面面俱到、内外兼修、与时俱进”,为此后监管执法工作提供了重要的法律依据,可谓是互联网信息内容管理行政执法所仰仗的“利器”。 Continue Reading 欲善其事,先利其器 ——解读《互联网信息内容管理行政执法程序规定》
