On August 3, at the Boshan Court, Ma Kuan's (pseudonym) agent received the first "divorce certificate" in Zibo.
In May 2020, ma kuan was divorced by a judgment of the Boshan court. Recently, Because he was preparing to buy a house, Ma Kuan needed to prove his marital status, but because of poor custody, the divorce judgment was damaged. He had thought of copying a divorce judgment and issuing another effective certificate, but now that he had the divorce certificate, Ma Kuan could save both processes.
After receiving the certificate, Ma Kuan said that because the divorce certificate is not only paper, small in specification, it is very convenient to keep and carry, and most importantly, the divorce judgment involves the reasons for divorce, children and property information, and the content is more than a dozen pages long, which is easy to leak the privacy of the parties. Now that the divorce certificate is in place, the parties no longer have to worry about privacy leaks.
In the past, when parties went to the court to fight divorce lawsuits, many people often asked when they received divorce judgment documents: "Judge, can you issue a divorce certificate for us?" Because after the divorce, we have to use the divorce certificate in the procedures of buying a house, handling the household registration, going to school for the children, etc., and there are many judgment documents, which are not easy to carry, when the clerks see the contents of the documents, especially involving child support and property division, domestic violence and other details, people are particularly uncomfortable, and we do not want to leak these scars. ”
In order to effectively protect the privacy of the parties in divorce cases, respond to the judicial needs of the parties, and combine the requirements of the practical activities of "I do practical things for the masses", the Boshan District Court adheres to the people-centered development concept, continuously deepens the reform of family trials, and designs and issues the first divorce certificate in Zibo City as a new measure for convenience.
A "divorce certificate", the size of which is exactly the same as the divorce certificate, has the words of the divorce certificate of the Boshan District People's Court of Zibo City on the cover, as well as the legal emblem representing the people's court, and the sixteen words on the bottom cover are printed with the words "Undo the Unjust And Release the Knot, More Hatred, One Difference, Two Wide, And Joy in Each Life", which is taken from the Tang Dynasty "Book of Letting Go of the Wife" unearthed from the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, expressing hope and blessing for the parties concerned.

The reporter learned that the Boshan District Court first issued a certificate of effectiveness of the judgment document to the parties, but the effective certificate of the judgment document needs to be used at the same time as the divorce judgment document to prove the marital status of the parties. After the reform of the family trial method and working mechanism began, the Boshan court began to issue divorce certificates printed on ordinary A4 paper to the parties, but because of the simple style and the thinness of ordinary A4 paper, it is not easy to preserve, it is easy to be damaged, and the social recognition is not very high.
In May 2021, the Boshan District Court began to try to design its own standard divorce certificate, and contacted the software design company to edit a special text entry procedure, and finally issued the first standard divorce certificate in Zibo City on August 3 this year. The divorce certificate only records the necessary supporting information such as the basic situation of the parties, the type, number, and effective time of the effective judgment document, and does not involve the specific facts of the divorce case.
The staff explained that only parties who registered for divorce through the civil affairs department could obtain a divorce certificate. In the past, parties who divorced through court judgment or mediation could not get a standard divorce certificate, "Sometimes the content of the divorce judgment is more specific, and after being seen by others, the parties will feel that they have been uncovered." "We hope to embody 'soft justice' in a way that provides proof." ”
The reporter learned that when the parties hold a divorce certificate to prove their marital status, they do not have to issue the corresponding civil judgment or civil mediation letter at the same time, which can effectively avoid the privacy leakage caused by the content of the effective judicial documents involving personal privacy. At the same time, the reporter learned that as long as the parties who dissolve the marriage relationship through the judgment or mediation of the Boshan District Court can apply to the Boshan District Court for a divorce certificate, and the parties can prove their marital status with the divorce certificate.
In recent years, the Boshan District Court has actively promoted the reform of family trials, established a family dispute resolution center, solidly promoted various reform measures in the family field, integrated family trials into the overall pattern of family dispute governance of co-construction, co-governance and sharing, put the non-litigation dispute mechanism in the front, and saved the crisis marriage to the greatest extent, repaired social relations, and let the people feel the warmth of the judiciary.
The "divorce certificate" implemented this time is an innovative measure to deepen the reform of family trial, which can not only bring convenience to the parties, but also protect the privacy of the parties to the greatest extent, a small "certificate", like a pair of hands with judicial temperature, covers the privacy and "scars" of the parties, and gives the parties convenience and dignity with warmth and flexibility judicial responsibility, highlighting the humanity of the law and the warmth of the judiciary.
