本文探讨了法院形式作为一种互动的体裁,在民事和家庭诉讼中的法律外行沟通必不可少:法院形式从主要的外行用户中获取关键信息,用于法院管理和司法。法庭表格中提供的信息定义了随后听证会和和解谈判的议程和沟通重点,在某些情况下甚至定义了诉讼程序的路径。因此,必须从法院形式的可理解性和功能性的角度来考虑法院形式,以引出法律上连贯的叙述,并促进非专业参与者有效参与诉讼。在文章中提出的案例研究借鉴语料库语言学和话语分析相结合,探讨两个版本的法院形式最常用的自我代表的当事人在英格兰和威尔士,“C100表格:申请法院命令,使安排一个孩子或解决他们的抚养纠纷”。纸质表格和重新设计的在线版本的比较确定了作为数字化过程的一部分所做的改进,但也表明了可能阻止外行人提供相关信息的沟通挑战。讨论提供了一个反思语言在网上法院中的作用的机会。
The article explores court forms as an interactive genre essential for legal-lay communication in civil and family proceedings: court forms elicit key information from predominantly lay users for the purposes of court administration and the judiciary. The information presented in court forms defines the agenda and communicative focus of the subsequent hearings and settlement negotiations, and in some instances even the path the proceedings would take. It is thus important to consider court forms in terms of their comprehensibility as well as functionality for eliciting legally coherent narratives and facilitating efficient engagement of lay participants with the proceedings. The case study presented in the article draws on the combination of corpus linguistics and discourse analysis to explore two versions of the court form most frequently used by self-represented parties in England and Wales, ‘Form C100: Apply for a court order to make arrangements for a child or resolve a dispute about their upbringing’. The comparison of the paper form and its redesigned online version identifies the improvements made as part of the digitisation process but also indicates communicative challenges which can prevent the lay person from presenting the relevant information. The discussion provides an opportunity to reflect on the role of language in online courts.
