THE country will give leniency to wrongdoers on the credit blacklists who are restricted from consumption due to court order defaults with a grace period from one to three months, according to a guideline released by the Supreme People’s Court.

Full-time students who lose their credit because of falling into illegal campus loans will be exempt from being listed on credit blacklists or restricted from purchasing certain products and services, according to the guideline.

The document said the punishment of restricting wrongdoers’ children attending schools with high tuitions that exceed standards should be precisely understood.

For those who were restricted, people’s courts should communicate with the young children and their schools to avoid negative effects, it said, adding that the punishment should not affect their legal right to education.

Credit blacklists will be made public if wrongdoers continue to default on their court orders longer than the grace period, it said.

The grace period will be granted based on the determination of defaulters to fulfill duties and the severity of their cases, according to the guideline. (Xinhua)
