Southeast Asia Information Port News (www.dnyxxg.com) – On December 18, 2025, Tian Shaohong, Vice President of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Higher People's Court, introduced that since 2025, Guangxi has established a new joint model for combating refusal to execute judgments, based on "internal and external linkage—efficient connection—tiered and categorized management—publicity and education." As of November 30, Guangxi courts had transferred 520 cases of refusal to execute judgments to public security organs. Following warnings and urging from the courts, public security organs, and procuratorates at various stages, the parties involved voluntarily fulfilled their obligations in 244 cases, with 89.0842 million yuan recovered.
On the same day, the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Higher People's Court held a press conference to report on the region-wide special campaign against refusal to execute judgments. Tian Shaohong stated that the evasion and resistance of judgment debtors render effective legal documents meaningless, seriously infringing upon the legitimate rights and interests of winning parties, severely damaging judicial credibility and the authority of the rule of law, and eroding the construction of a trustworthy society. Punishing the crime of refusing to execute judgments and rulings according to law is an important measure for the courts to actively respond to the public's new demands and expectations for solving the difficulties in enforcement.
Under the overall leadership of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Party Committee, since the beginning of this year, the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Higher People's Court, in conjunction with the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region People's Procuratorate and the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region Public Security Department, has further improved the collaborative mechanism for punishing the crime of refusing to execute judgments, forming a joint force to combat this crime, fully leveraging the educational function of punishment, and promoting the parties' voluntary compliance with effective judgments.
Simultaneously, public security, procuratorial, and judicial organs at all levels in Guangxi have promptly coordinated case information, standardized evidence review, and strengthened cooperation and linkage. They have reached a consensus on information sharing, effective procedural connections, and joint institutional development, clarifying the core elements of the crime of refusing to execute judgments, issuing answers to key and difficult questions, and unifying the concept of combining punishment and education.
To improve the accuracy of the crackdown, Guangxi's public security, procuratorial, and judicial organs have shifted the joint crackdown on the crime of refusing to execute judgments from "passive post-event prosecution" to a full-chain precise governance approach of "precise pre-event identification, efficient in-event evidence collection, and forceful post-event punishment." They adhere to the principle of benevolent and civilized enforcement combined with a lenient and severe criminal policy, continuously improving the deterrent effect and effectiveness of criminal punishment.
In response to instances since 2020 where judgment debtors have refused to report assets, made false reports of assets, violated restrictions on high-level consumption, refused to deliver movable property, or obstructed enforcement with false long-term lease contracts, Guangxi courts have meticulously examined each case to determine if it constitutes a crime of refusal to comply with court orders. Relevant leads were promptly transferred to public security organs for investigation and prosecution. This resulted in the successful location of 2,228 judgment debtors. Through measures such as summons, travel restrictions, detention, and criminal prosecution, a tiered punitive system has been established, with corresponding punitive measures taken for different circumstances of refusal to comply with court orders.
Next, Guangxi courts will improve and refine the normalized working mechanism for combating crimes of refusal to comply with court orders, establishing a system that emphasizes both public prosecution and private prosecution to effectively resolve the problem of enforcement difficulties.
This press conference released 10 typical cases from Guangxi's special campaign this year to combat refusal to comply with court judgments. These cases cover common malicious evasion tactics such as fabricating lease contracts to obstruct judicial auctions, unauthorized disposal of court-seized property, using other people's bank accounts to receive payments and conceal assets, and using false settlements to retrieve seized property for private disposal. The cases demonstrate that those who evade enforcement will not only face the obligation to fulfill effective judgments, but those with serious offenses will also be held criminally liable. (End)
