Since China boasts the highest numbers of online education institutions and users relative to other countries in the world, it has also been blessed with sufficient materials that may be used for empirical research. Although some studies have revealed the potential underlying legal risks in online education, there is still a paucity of scholars who set out to explore how the issues arose during legal practice via written judgments.
