Abstract: The judicatory reform in western countries reveals that the pretrial procedure is playing an increasingly important role in solving civil dispute.However,in China’s    judicatory reform,the importance of pretrial procedure has not been shown yet,especially its independent value in solving civil dispute.This phenomenon is mainly duo to the lack of theoretical research into this field and the lack of discussion on the system construction.Absorbing the experience of judicatory reform of pretrial procedure in western countries,and taking the laws of pretrial procedure of our country into consideration,this paper illustrates the significance of pretrial procedure and proposes suggestions to construct the relevant system,aiming to provide reference for solving civil dispute.

Key words: pretrial procedure, independent value, system construction
