Cases against govts must be on record

Measure is meant to prevent officials or judges from interfering in lawsuits

The Supreme People's Court has reissued an order to courts nationwide to ensure that all lawsuits against government departments are placed on record, and telling them not to ignore complex cases.

Since May 2015, courts have been required to file all cases - except those that fail a basic review - as part of a national reform aimed at streamlining the process and preventing interference from judges and other officials.
