訴狀
訴狀是當(dāng)事人提出和表達(dá)訴訟請(qǐng)求，要求法院對(duì)案件行使管轄權(quán)并作出公正判決的重要法律文書(shū)，一般由當(dāng)事人自己撰寫(xiě)或請(qǐng)其他人或有關(guān)法律服務(wù)機(jī)構(gòu)代書(shū)，提交法院作為訴訟材料。其英文格式很多，其名稱(chēng)因管轄地或法院或訴訟種類(lèi)的不同而相去很遠(yuǎn)，如美國(guó)<民事訴訟法典)規(guī)定，其被稱(chēng)為Complaint，而在英國(guó)或加拿大，其又被稱(chēng)為statement of claim等，本書(shū)只能簡(jiǎn)要地介紹其中一兩種格式。

The petition of Chongqing Wanbao Company，a Chinese corporation，which has its registered office in Sha Ping Ba，Chongqing，P．R．China，respectfully shows：
重慶萬(wàn)寶公司是一家在中國(guó)重慶沙坪壩登記注冊(cè)的中國(guó)公司，謹(jǐn)此提出如下申訴：
1．The defendants are John W．Smith(“Smith”)and Mary L．White (“White”)，each of whom is domiciled in this county．
1)被告人為約翰·W．史密斯(以下簡(jiǎn)稱(chēng)史密斯)和瑪麗·L．懷特(以下簡(jiǎn)稱(chēng)懷特)均為本縣居民。
2．Smith owes plaintiff five thousand and fifty dollars ( $ 5050.00)，with ten per cent (10%)annum interest from May 1，1995。
2)史密斯欠原告?zhèn)鶆?wù)伍千零伍拾美金( $ 5050.00)，年利率為百分之壹拾(10%)，從1995年5月1日算起。
3．Plaintiff sold and delivered to Smith the merchandise described，on the dates and for the prices shown on the itemized statement of account attached as an exhibit．
3)原告曾將一批約定的貨物出售并提供給史密斯，其日期和價(jià)格見(jiàn)所附作為證據(jù)的明細(xì)賬目。
4．Smith has made only the payments shown，and on the dates indicated， on the attached statement and has failed to pay the balance due thereon．
4)史密斯僅在明細(xì)賬目所示的日期支付了部分價(jià)款，款額見(jiàn)明細(xì)賬目，而結(jié)欠價(jià)款至今未付。
5．Smith was engaged in the retail grocery business，under the trade name Wonder Trade，and he purchased the merchandise described above from plaintiff as part of his stock in trade．
5)史密斯從事雜貨零售業(yè)，其店名為萬(wàn)德雜貨店，他從原告處購(gòu)得的上述貨物是其店存的一部分。
6．On January l2，1996，Smith sold his entire business in bulk，and out of the ordinary course of trade，to White，for the sum of five hundred thousand dollars ($ 500,000.00)cash．This was the fair value of the assets sold．
6)1996年1月12日，史密斯違反貿(mào)易常規(guī)，將其商店以現(xiàn)金伍拾萬(wàn)元整個(gè)賣(mài)給了懷特。這一價(jià)格為所出售資產(chǎn)的公平價(jià)格。
7．White paid the purchase price to Smith without paying or seeing to it that the purchase money was applied to the payment of the bona fide claims of Smith's creditors and without first having sent the notices of the transfer and the statement to creditors provided for in Art．21 of the (name of a statute)．
7)懷特向史密斯支付了買(mǎi)店費(fèi)，然而卻沒(méi)有支付或保證將買(mǎi)店費(fèi)用于支付史密斯債權(quán)人的正當(dāng)索賠，也沒(méi)有按××法規(guī)第21條之規(guī)定，預(yù)先將轉(zhuǎn)讓通知和聲明送交債權(quán)人。
8．The transfer is therefore void as against the plaintiff and other creditors of the transferor and it should be invalidated．In addition White should be held liable to Smith's creditors for the fair value of the goods and merchandise he received from Smith，and ordered to account therefore to Smith's creditors．
8)因此，該轉(zhuǎn)讓違背了原告及轉(zhuǎn)讓人其他債權(quán)人的利益，屬于非法，應(yīng)當(dāng)作廢。此外，懷特因從史密斯處用公平價(jià)購(gòu)買(mǎi)了貨物而應(yīng)對(duì)史密斯的債權(quán)人負(fù)責(zé)，且應(yīng)向史密斯的債權(quán)人說(shuō)明貨物的情況。
WHEREFORE，plaintiff prays for judgement：
由此，原告懇請(qǐng)法院作出以下判決：
Ⅰ．Against John W．Smith for the sum of five thousand and fifty dollars ($ 50500.00)with ten percent(10%) interest per annum from May 1，1995．
