小额诉讼程序是一种特殊的简易诉讼程序,它的受理范围以一定的诉讼标的额为上限,其宗旨是使司法接近平民大众,使普通老百姓能够用诉讼的手段解决纠纷,维护自己的合法权益。目前,小额诉讼程序在国外已经普遍设立,效果良好。我国也应设立该程序以解决人们诉讼难的问题,也实现诉讼程序设置的科学化。 The lawsuit is a special summary procedure. The scope of its acceptance is subject to a certain litigation target. Its purpose is to bring the judiciary close to the common people, so that ordinary people can use litigation to settle the dispute and defend their legal rights rights and interests. At present, the microfinance proceedings have been generally established abroad with good results. Our country should also set up this procedure to solve the difficult problem of people’s litigation and also to realize the scientific setting of procedure.
