Special People's Courts

Special People's Courts

Special people's courts are set up in specific departments or for hearing specific cases, but not for any specific administrative areas. They include military courts, maritime courts, intellectual property courts, and financial courts. These special courts are a component of China's system of people's courts. They exercise jurisdiction the same as other courts at all levels. The setup, organization, functions, and powers of the special courts and the appointment and removal of their judges are all prescribed by the NPC Standing Committee.
