| 单词 | Lis alibi pendens |
| 释义 | 在別處未決的訟案 Lat – a suit pending elsewhere. A proceeding, suit, or case pending in another jurisdiction. If a dispute between a plaintiff and defendant regarding a specific issue is lis alibi pendens, the defendant may invoke this fact as a ground to prevent the plaintiff from instituting the same suit in another court against the defendant. Where an action is pending in a foreign court, and a second action is begun in Hong Kong between the same parties claiming substantially the same remedy or relief, the court may put the plaintiff to his election with which action he will proceed (Hing Fat Plastic Manufacturing Co Ltd v Advanced Technology Products (HK) Ltd [1992] 2 HKLR 350); or stay all proceedings in Hong Kong (Securities and Futures Commission v Nomura International (Hong Kong) Ltd & Ors [1998] 2 HKC 503, 1 HKLRD 835 (CA)); or grant an injunction restraining the prosecution of the foreign proceedings (Hui Kao Chu v Wu Chi Cheung [1984] 1 HKC 273 (HC)). The doctrine of lis alibi pendens will not apply when the foreign action is or is virtually at an end or halted: Buttes Gas and Oil Co v Hammer & Anor [1971] 3 All ER 1025 (CA). See also Lis. 拉丁語 ─ 在別處懸而未決的訟案。有待別的司法管轄區裁定的法律程序、訟案、訴訟。假如原告人與被告人之間的爭議屬在別處未決的訟案，被告人可援引此一事實，作為阻止原告人就同一訟案在另一法庭提起針對被告人的理由。凡為外地待決的訴訟，而第二個訴訟在香港展開，即相同的各方之間就很相似的補救或濟助而提出申索，法庭可要求原告人就繼續那一個法律程序作出選擇（Hing Fat Plastic Manufacturing Co Ltd v Advanced Technology Products (HK) Ltd [1992] 2 HKLR 350）；或擱置所有在香港的法律程序（Securities and Futures Commission v Nomura International (Hong Kong) Ltd & Ors [1998] 2 HKC 503, 1 HKLRD 835（上訴法院））；或發出禁制令禁止外地的法律程序繼續進行（Hui Kao Chu v Wu Chi Cheung [1984] HKC 273 （高等法院））。如外地的法律程序已實質上完結或停止，則在別處未決訟案的原則不適用：Buttes Gas and Oil Co v Hammer & Anor [1971] 3 All ER 1025（英國上訴法院）。另見 Lis。 |
