讲座摘要:This paper relates to a considerable numbers of studies have been made on a fee-shifting rule in litigation problems. We construct a rent-seeking model to analyze partial fee-shifting rule how affect parties’ decisions to litigate and litigation expenditures. Our results provide parties reduce more litigation rates in the English rule (the loser of a lawsuit must pay all the litigation costs of the winner), but pay less litigation cost in the American rule(parties only pay their own cost). Most importantly, the American rule and the English rule have more advantages over than partial fee-shifting rule, including the expected litigation expenditures. There is no significant effect in support of the partial fee-shifting rule reducing litigation rates and costs.
