Abstract
The temporal provision outlined in Article 35 of the Montreal Convention 1999 (MC99) and Article 29 of the Warsaw Convention 1929 (WC29), which establishes a two-year period for the initiation of legal proceedings and specifies the method for calculating this period, has been a source of controversy since its introduction in the early twenteith century. Globally, judicial practices have debated its legal nature, specifically whether it constitutes a statute of limitations, or a statute of repose or a condition precedent. Chinese courts generally interpret it as a statute of limitations. Notably, the Supreme People’s Court (SPC) in China has issued a relevant model case concerning a dispute over an international air carriage contract under MC99, which is remarked as a significant guidance for the resolution of similar cases. This article delves into Chinese domestic legal provisions and judicial practices regarding this matter. It begins by examining the notable Chinese model case, followed by a comparative analysis of practices in other jurisdictions. Finally, it seeks to identify the underlying causes and factors that have shaped Chinese legal practice, as well as to assess the broader implications and impacts of this approach.

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
