证据是如何排除的

How to Exclude Evidence

证据排除是现代证据法的核心精神。在理想状态下,一项证据被“排除”,意味着该证据所反映的信息对于案件事实的最终认定不产生任何影响。从世界各国的具体情况来看,为达到这种理想状态,共有三种途径,分别适用于不同的法系。总体而言,普通法系的程序设置最符合证据排除的要求,而大陆法系在这一问题上则显得力不从心。为了使证据排除规则真正落到实处,包括我国在内采取职权主义审判模式的国家都需要进一步完善相关的配套制度。

The exclusion of evidence is the critical core in modem evidence rule. In ideal state, that evidence is excluded means the information the evidence reflected has no influence on the decision about facts. There are three ways to reach this goal in different legal systems of the world. Generally speaking, the procedure of common law meets the requirement of excluding evidence perfectly. However, continental procedural systems are not very competent to the question. To make exclusionary rule get more efficiency, those counties that have chosen litigious procedure of exofficio principle, including China, should further perfect relevant rules.
