A judgment refers to a trial decision made by a people's court or other relevant institutions on a case, and it is a legally binding document. In terms of the validity of the judgment, we can analyze it from the following two aspects: First, the validity of the judgment is the legal period, usually two years. According to the provisions of Article 167 of the Civil Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), the judgment shall take legal effect from the date of announcement. The effective date indicated in the judgment refers to the date when the judgment is announced, while the effective period indicated in the judgment refers to the period after the judgment becomes legally effective. Usually, the judgment is valid for two years. During this period, the judgment has legal effect and can play a legal guarantee role in the implementation process. 2. If the judgment involves compensation for property damage, the debtor shall perform the obligation of payment to the creditor within ten years, and the time limit for performance shall be counted from the effective date of the judgment. This is the conclusion drawn according to Article 182 of the Civil Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC). If the judgment involves compensation for property damage, the debtor shall perform the obligation of payment to the creditor within ten years from the date when the judgment takes effect, otherwise it shall bear corresponding legal responsibilities.
If the effective date indicated in the judgment is different from the announcement date, is the legal effect of the judgment the same as the announcement date? According to the provisions of Article 167 of the Civil Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), the judgment shall take legal effect from the date of announcement. Therefore, the legal effect of the judgment is subject to the date of announcement, regardless of the effective date.
The validity period of the judgment is legal, usually two years. In the process of execution, the judgment has legal effect and can play a legal guarantee role within the validity period of the judgment. If the judgment involves compensation for property damage, the debtor shall fulfill the obligation of payment to the creditor within ten years, otherwise it will bear corresponding legal responsibilities.
