According to the Interpretation of the Supreme People's Court on Several Issues Concerning the Specific Application of Law in the Trial of Property Service Disputes:

Article 3 If a realty service enterprise fails to perform or fails to fully perform its maintenance, conservation, management and repair obligations as agreed in the realty service contract or determined by laws, regulations and relevant industry norms, and the owner requests the realty service enterprise to undertake the liabilities for breach of contract such as continuing to perform, taking remedial measures or compensating for losses, the people's court shall support it.

The service promises made publicly by the realty service enterprise and the service rules formulated shall be regarded as part of the realty service contract.

Article 4 The people's court shall support the owners who violate the realty service contract or laws, regulations and management conventions and conduct acts that hinder the realty service and management, and the realty service enterprise requests the owners to bear corresponding civil liabilities such as restoring the original state, stopping the infringement and removing the obstruction.

Article 5 Where a realty service enterprise violates the stipulations of the realty service contract or the provisions of laws, regulations and departmental rules, it expands the charging scope, raises the charging standard or charges repeatedly without authorization, and the owner raises a defense on the grounds of illegal charging, the people's court shall support it.

The people's court shall support the owners' request to the realty service enterprise to refund the illegal fees charged by them.

Article 6 If an owner refuses to pay the property fee without justifiable reasons or fails to pay the property fee within a reasonable period after being urged in writing, the people's court shall support the property service enterprise in requesting the owner to pay the property fee. Property service enterprises have provided services in accordance with the contract and relevant regulations, and the people's court will not support the owners' defense on the grounds that they do not enjoy or need to accept relevant property services.

Article 7 If the owner and the lessee, borrower or other user of the property agree that the user of the property will pay the property fee, and the property service enterprise requests the owner to bear joint liability, the people's court shall support it.
