Abstract:
This article is one of the first articles to examine Chinese criminal procedure since its economic and legal reforms in 1978. This article examines the process of criminal appeals by examining criminal cases reviewed by the Judicial Committee of the Supreme People’s court from 1985 to 1987. These are cases selected by the Court for publication for their educational value as examples of properly adjudicated cases.
