The civil retrial procuratorial suggestion is the legal supervision method officially established by the Civil Procedure Law. The main features are the same level supervision, case supervision, flexible supervision, etc. As an important supplement to the civil protest system, the legal effect should be positioned to trigger the court. The review procedure of the effective referee shall be initiated when the original judgment is “indeed wrong”. In judicial practice, the number of civil retrial procuratorial suggestions has steadily increased, and it has been compared with the number of civil protest cases. But because the legislative provisions are very principled，the retrial procuratorial suggestions lack specifications in terms of scope of application, procedures, and styles of instruments, which affect their functions fully use. To improve the civil retrial procuratorial suggestion system, we should adhere to the modest principle of civil procuratorial supervision, the principle of limited retrial and the principle of litigation benefit. It is recommended that "the two high"(the Supreme People's Court and the Supreme People's Procuratorate) should issue special judicial interpretation as soon as possible, clarify the main disputed legal issues, standardize specific procedures, and strengthen data statistics and judicial disclosure.
