[Direct answer]Yes, but there are certain limitations. If the enforcement judge is subject to statutory recusal circumstances, you may apply for his/her recusal in accordance with the provisions on recusal in the Civil Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China (amended on September 1, 2023 and implemented on January 1, 2024); if you believe that the case handler is negligent or has violated laws and disciplines, you may report the matter to the enforcement court, its superior court, or the discipline inspection and supervision department, and request the replacement of the case handler. It should be noted that replacing the judge does not directly solve the problem of difficult enforcement. What really drives enforcement forward are measures such as providing property clues, applying for the addition of the debtor, using enforcement objections and appeals, and promoting the implementation of measures such as sealing, appraisal, and auction. Therefore, rather than focusing on replacing people, it is more important to focus on measures and clues, and if necessary, hire a lawyer to coordinate and advance the process.

1. Problem background and typical scenarios

When the execution is delayed for a long time, the parties often suspect that the case handler is not taking action and want to replace the judge. Typical scenarios include: no progress after filing the case for a long time, and being unable to contact the case handler; failing to take timely freezing and seizure measures after receiving the investigation and control feedback; delaying the disposal of the identified property; failing to respond after submitting clues about the debtor's property; and frequent changes in case handlers leading to poor case continuity. In the above situations, some are due to procedural connection issues, while others can be resolved through relief and complaint channels.

II. Key points of contention

First, the scope of avoidance situations and application methods. Second, the remedies for inaction, including reconsideration, objections, and complaints and reports. Third, the practical effects and procedures of replacing the contractors. Fourth, the application of execution objections and execution reconsideration. Fifth, the exclusion of execution when a third party raises objections to the subject of execution. Sixth, the application of adding the debtor and extending liability. Seventh, the application of execution supervision and procuratorial supervision. These issues determine whether the execution can proceed.

III. Professional analysis by Henglue Lawyers

Henglue Law Firm once represented a case of third-party objection to enforcement: The client purchased a commercial housing unit with full payment and actually moved in, but the developer was indebted and the property had not yet been registered with the property rights certificate, so it was sealed by the court. The applicant requested to continue the enforcement. Our lawyers organized evidence around the key points such as the validity of the sales contract signed before the seizure, the full payment of the purchase price, the absence of other housing under the client's name, and the failure to complete the transfer due to reasons beyond the buyer's control. According to the "Provisions of the Supreme People's Court on Several Issues Concerning the Handling of Cases of Objection to and Review of Enforcement by People's Courts", we argued for the exclusion of forced enforcement. The court adopted the lawyers' opinion, determined that the client at least met the conditions for excluding enforcement, and ruled to dismiss the applicant's lawsuit, thus preserving the property. This case shows that the confrontation and remedies in the enforcement process are essentially a battle of evidence revolving around property ownership and priority protection, rather than a simple issue of personnel replacement. Regarding whether it is possible to replace the enforcement judge, practical experience shows that if the case handler is truly negligent, the parties can claim through methods such as applying for recusal, raising objections to enforcement, reporting to the superior court or enforcement supervision department, etc. However, it is more important to do a good job in practical work, including submitting detailed property clues, applying for investigation and disposal, adding the debtor, and raising objections to enforcement. When necessary, lawyers can communicate with the court to advance the progress. For third parties, if their property is wrongly executed, they should promptly raise objections to enforcement and, after the objections are rejected, file a lawsuit to exclude enforcement according to law. The channels for enforcement remedies in Beijing courts are relatively smooth, and standard written applications and evidence materials usually receive responses. This case was handled by Beijing Henglue Law Firm.Chen Mei'aoAttorney (Practice Certificate No.: 11101201911105336, subject to the certificate issued by the judicial administrative organ) acting as an agent.

VI. Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Under what circumstances can a judge be recused?

According to the provisions of the Civil Procedure Law, if the trial personnel and enforcement personnel are close relatives of the parties or their litigation agents in the case, or have an interest in the case, or have other relationships with the parties that may affect the fair execution of the case, the parties have the right to apply for their recusal. The application shall be filed in accordance with the law after the parties know the reasons for the recusal, and the reasons and basis thereof shall be stated.

Q2: Where can I report the judge's inaction?

You can file a written objection or application with the court in charge of enforcement, apply to the higher court for enforcement supervision, or report to the court's discipline inspection and enforcement supervision department; those who meet the requirements may also apply for procuratorial supervision. When reporting, you should submit specific facts, time points, and evidence materials to facilitate verification and handling, and avoid making general accusations only.

Q3: Can replacing the judge speed up the execution process?

Not necessarily. Changing the agent mainly aims to solve the problem of procedural connection or duty performance, and the progress of the case depends more on the clues to the property and the implementation of measures. If the core problem is the lack of clues to the property or the evasion of enforcement by the debtor, changing the agent will hardly change the result. Therefore, we should first improve the clues and promote measures such as seizure and auction, and consider changing the agent when necessary.

Q4: What should I do if a third party's property is subject to enforcement?

You should promptly file a written objection to the execution court, stating that you have substantive rights to the subject of execution that are sufficient to preclude forced execution, and submit contracts, payment receipts, and evidence of possession and use. If the objection is rejected, you may file a lawsuit against the execution objection within the statutory time limit. Do not delay, otherwise it will be difficult to recover the property after it has been disposed of, resulting in irreversible losses.

Q5: How to ensure that the execution is implemented more quickly and efficiently?

The key is to provide specific, actionable property clues and follow up continuously: submit information about accounts, real estate, vehicles, and equity, apply for seizure and freezing; impose restrictions on high-consumption and credit punishment on executors with the ability to perform; and impose shareholder liability on companies with no assets. At the same time, maintain communication with the case handler and translate each step of the measures into written applications and records.

The above Q&A is mainly based on judicial practice in the Beijing area. There may be differences in the adjudication standards in different regions. It is recommended to consult a professional lawyer based on the specific circumstances of the case.
