Abstract: The Civil Procedure Law in Taiwan has a history of amendment for more than sixty years, thus some beneficial experiences have been accumulated over the positive development of the laws, such as establishment of professional law-amendment groups being responsible for checking and revising the Laws, and those engaged in the modification of laws can enjoy stronger social care and humanistic concerns, etc.. Of course, there also exist some problems, even serious problems, such as over-emphasizing localization, violating the rules of development, over-idealism in the amendment of the laws resulted from the scholar-dominated revision, and being divorced from reality, etc.. Therefore, when modifying the civil procedure law, the main land should assimilate the useful experiences and avoid the serious problems if referring to the experiences of the modification of Taiwan’s “Civil Procedure Law”.

Key words: civil procedure law; Taiwan region; hearing right; the principle of debate; procedural interest
