How to Deal with Errors in Judges' Judgment Documents

Errors in court documents, involving clerical errors in legal documents, errors in calculation of relevant contents of judgments, omission of litigation-related expenses, etc., can be corrected by ruling. If the judgment of the case is indeed wrong, the parties may appeal.

In any of the following circumstances, the parties may bring a suit in a people's court:

1. The people's court rejected the previous appeal and applied again.

2. The people's court fails to make a ruling within the time limit.

3. There are obvious errors in retrial. The procuratorate shall, within three months, examine the application of the party concerned and inform whether it can be accepted. Otherwise, the parties are not allowed to appeal or protest to the people's procuratorate again.

To sum up, if the judgment of the court is wrong and the judgment has not yet taken effect, you can appeal within the prescribed time limit. If the appeal period has expired, you must continue to appeal to a higher court. If you think the court has done something against justice, you can report it to the procuratorate. The right of appeal is a basic right given to the parties by law, and the parties can fully exercise it.
