N2 - In this paper, we explore the theme of orbifold stratified spaces and establish a general criterion for them to be smooth orbifolds. This criterion utilizes the notion of linear stratification on the gluing bundles for the orbifold stratified spaces. We introduce a concept of good gluing structure to ensure a smooth structure on the stratified space. As an application, we provide an orbifold structure on the coarse moduli space Mg,n of stable genus g curves with n-marked points. Using the gluing theory for Mg,n associated to horocycle structures, there is a natural orbifold gluing structure on Mg,n. We show this gluing atlas can be refined to provide a good orbifold gluing atlas and hence a smooth orbifold structure on Mg,n. This general gluing principle will be very useful in the study of the gluing theory for the compactified moduli spaces of stable pseudo-holomorphic curves in a symplectic manifold.
