对话“共和国同龄人”、75岁的退休法官任建友
骑自行车是法官
必须掌握的基本技能
"I talked to litigants and dealt with their cases in my office, because in those days there was no specialized courtrooms as now," Ren Jianyou recalled. "We just had two tables, one for the judge and the other for the clerk, with several chairs next to them."
In the 1980s and 1990s, for a judge, being able to ride a bike was almost as important as knowing Chinese legal statues in and out.
"At that time, judges have to ride around to figure out the root causes of conflicts and notify residents involved in disputes to attend their trials," said He Huiying, who retired from the Beijing Tongzhou District People’s Court in 2014. "The longest ride took me more than an hour and a half to reach the place where the dispute occurred."
法律文书都是手写的
"Whenever I prepared to write a verdict by hand, I was actually very happy, because it meant that the facts had been found out and the case would be over. It’s good both for me and the litigants," He added.

上门去数猪
When Ren was at the Chaoyang court, one of her major jobs was to deal with divorce-related disputes. What impressed her most was a trip to the outskirts of Beijing in the early 1990s to help split the family property — a number of pigs — between a divorced couple.
"The pair didn't reach an agreement on the exact number of pigs in their household and how many pigs each side could get, so I went to their home to further investigate and count the pigs," Ren said with a laugh. "Domestic animals were also important family assets at that time, as were savings and household appliances such as televisions, refrigerators and washing machines."
司法为民不能变
Although legal services have become more diverse and courts have become more technology-friendly, "our pursuit to serve litigants and uphold justice has never changed," He said.
Looking back on her 35-year career, she said, "Being a judge to solve problems and alleviate conflicts for the people was the thing that made me most proud."
