Supreme People's Court of the People's Republic of China

The Supreme People's Court functions as the highest judicial institution in China, managing legal appeals and supervising the lower courts across the nation.

Founded in October 1949, the court initially operated with leadership from military backgrounds before transitioning to professional legal expertise through constitutional reforms.

The court system reflects Chinese social values by emphasizing the protection of both public and private property while maintaining social order through legal mechanisms.

The institution contains 400 judges and 600 administrative staff members who process appeals, conduct case reviews, and issue judicial interpretations for nationwide application.

Since 2013, the court maintains a registry of individuals and companies that do not comply with judicial decisions, leading to substantial financial recoveries.
