最高人民法院关于林守义诉熊正俭离婚案管辖问题的批复

1985年11月21日，最高人民法院

陕西省高级人民法院：
你院关于林守义诉熊正俭离婚一案管辖问题的请示收悉。
熊正俭于1982年9月离开西安到福建省三明市其女儿家居住至今。林守义于1985年4月向西安市坝桥区人民法院起诉，要求与熊正俭离婚。西安市坝桥区人民法院将案件移送福建省三明市三元区人民法院。三元区人民法院受理后，于1985年5至7月曾三次发函委托西安市坝桥区人民法院调查。西安市坝桥区人民法院既不调查，又不将未调查的原因函告三元区人民法院。在此情况下，三元区人民法院将案件移送西安市中级人民法院。对上述情况，我们研究后认为，根据《中华人民共和国民事诉讼法（试行）》第二十条、第三十二条、第八十九条的规定，该案应由福建省三明市三元区人民法院受理；陕西省西安市坝桥区人民法院对三元区人民法院的委托调查应在法定期限内完成。如因故不能完成，应及时函告说明原因。坝桥区和三元区人民法院的上述做法是不对的，应注意改正。
