最高人民法院在新的司法解释中增加了新的判决形式——驳回诉讼请求判决后,有不少学者提出完全可以扩大该判决的适用情形用以取代维持判决。但笔者从立法目的和现代行政的效率要求出发,认为维持判决仍有其存在的空间。本文试图澄清对维持判决适用条件的误解,并尝试解决在现有的各判决形式及其各适用条件下如何更好地适用维持判决。 The Supreme People’s Court added a new form of judgments to the new judicial interpretation - after dismissing the judgments of the claims, many scholars proposed that it would be entirely possible to extend the application of the judgments instead of the maintenance of judgments. However, from the legislative purposes and the efficiency requirements of modern administration, the author thinks there is still room for the maintenance of the judgment. This article attempts to clarify the misunderstanding of the conditions for the maintenance of a sentence and to try to solve the problem of how to apply the maintenance judgment better under the existing forms of judgments and their respective applicable conditions.
