Under certain conditions, creditors may also request the revocation of property division clauses in the divorce agreement, and the scope of revocation must correspond to the extent of the damage caused.

Civil and Commercial Perspective | The Real Estate Ownership Certificate Records the Shares of Co-ownership: How to Divide Them During Divorce

In reality, many couples register property ownership as joint tenancy with specified shares clearly recorded in the real estate ownership certificate. So, can the house be divided directly according to the registered shares upon divorce? According to Article 303 of the Civil Code of the People's Republic of China, co-owners can divide the property according to the agreed proportions. However, if there are disputes regarding marital property agreements, contribution ratios, or the authenticity of the co-ownership relationship, a comprehensive judgment must be made based on written agreements, actual contributions, and judicial review results.

Viewpoint | A Brief Discussion on Service of Process Issues in Foreign-Related Civil Litigation

In a recent unfair competition lawsuit I represented, Defendant One, a natural person A, was a former employee of Company B, and Defendant Two, Company C, is a direct competitor of Company B. Company B believed that Defendants One and Two jointly engaged in unfair competition, thus filing a lawsuit against both defendants in court. Since A voluntarily renounced Chinese nationality and acquired foreign citizenship, A appeared in the lawsuit as a foreign national, involving service of process in foreign-related matters. The court was very cautious about this; the presiding judge communicated with me multiple times regarding the service of process, requesting relevant evidence to facilitate the court's service. After considerable effort, the evidence collection was successfully completed, and service was properly effected, allowing the litigation to proceed. Here is a brief summary of the service of process issues in foreign-related civil litigation for colleagues' reference.
