送达是司法机关按照法定程序和方法将法律文书送交受送达人的行为，是沟通当事人和法院审判的桥梁。我国民事诉讼模式虽然有向当事人主义转型的态势，但在送达领域仍受职权进行主义主导，由法院对文书的送达工作全权负责。面对目前我国案多人少的司法现状，电子送达以其高效率性为“送达难”问题的解决提供了新的思路。但司法实践必须严格遵守技术为权利保障服务的宗旨，民事诉讼领域更要注重保障当事人的程序参与权。由于我国目前关于电子送达的规定还不够细致，司法中难免会出现法院因片面追求诉讼效率而忽视对当事人的权利保障。如何在保障当事人程序权利的前提下扩大对电子送达的适用，是电子送达在我国的进一步发展需要解决的问题。本文第一部分主要探讨职权进行主义诉讼模式对电子送达的影响，以及目前电子送达的立法还存在的不足之处。本文第一部分主要探讨职权进行主义诉讼模式对电子送达的影响，以及目前电子送达的立法还存在的不足之处。第二部分探讨电子送达适用的电子送达的适用要件，即如何设定当事人同意的标准以及电子送达与其他送达方式的适用顺位。第三部分讨论电子送达的有效性，即如何确定电子送达的成功标准。第四部分对电子送达的结果，即由谁来承担未送达成功的疏明责任进行探讨。以期为解决电子送达在我国司法适用中如何兼顾诉讼效率和程序保障的问题提供有益借鉴。

Electronic service is the action that judicial organs deliver legal documents to summoned in person according to the legal procedures and methods, and it is also the bridge between the parties and the court trial. Although there is a transition to “party-ism trial mode” in the field of civil action in China, service is still dominated by inquisitorial system, and the court is fully responsible for the service of legal documents. Facing the current judicial situation of too many cases in our country, electronic service provides a new way to solve the problem of “service difficulty” with its high efficiency. But the judicial practice must strictly abide by the purpose that technology should protect the rights, and in the field of civil litigation, we should pay more attention to the protection of the parties’ rights to participate in procedures. Because the regulations on electronic service in China are not detailed enough at present, it is inevitable that the court will ignore the protection of the rights of the parties because of the one-sided pursuit of litigation efficiency. How to expand the application of electronic service on the premise of protecting the procedural rights of the parties is a question that needs to be answered in the further development of electronic service in China. The first part of this thesis is going to talk about the influences to electronic service from inquisitorial system and the deficiencies of Chinese laws for electronic service. The second part is about the application of electronic service in different cases. The third part is going to discuss the effectiveness of electronic service, which is how to confirm the standard of electronic service. And the last part is about the result of electronic service, the discussion of the responsibility of the failure of electronic service. The purpose of this thesis is to provide references for electronic service to balance the litigation efficiency and the procedural protection in China.
