“驳回诉讼”常见的英文表达是 “dismiss the lawsuit” 或 “reject the lawsuit”。
dismiss the lawsuit:更强调法院基于法定理由,如缺乏管辖权、原告没有诉讼资格、案件无实质争议等,正式终止诉讼程序,不继续审理该案件。
reject the lawsuit:侧重于拒绝接受诉讼,可能因为诉讼不符合某些形式要求、没有充分理由等,语义上更偏向于初步的否定。
例句:
The court decided to dismiss the lawsuit due to lack of evidence.(法院因证据不足决定驳回诉讼。 )
The judge rejected the lawsuit as it was filed beyond the statute of limitations.(法官以诉讼超过法定时效为由拒绝了该诉讼。 )
