摘　　要：2012年修改的我国现行《民事诉讼法》在第162条新增了关于小额审判机制的规定,但其中并未对其具体的适用范围作出明确界定。作为一种特殊类型的民事诉讼案件,海事诉讼案件是否可以适用小额审判机制,最高人民法院在相关批复中对此作出了肯定的答复。本文认为,该批复不仅忽视了海事诉讼案件的特殊性与小额审判机制适用范围的特定性,而且其推论基础明显存在谬误,更欠缺对海事诉讼案件适用小额审判机制有无实际需要之科学论证。鉴此,从司法解释层面明定海事诉讼案件可以适用小额审判机制乃是不恰当的。The current ＂Civil Procedure Law＂ amended in 2012 has added provisions regarding small trial mecha- nism in article 163, but it did not make a clear definition of the specific scope. The Supreme Court in the relevant approval made an affirmative reply to whether the small trial mechanism can be applied to maritime case, which is a special type of civil litigation. This paper argues that the approval not only ignored the particularity of the maritime ease as well as the specific range of small trial mechanism and had the obvious error about the inference basement, but also lack scientific proof in reference to whether it has actual needs for the application of small trial mechanism to maritime cases. In view of this, stipulating that small trial mechanism can be applied to maritime litigation from the judicial interpretation is not appropriate.
