“跨法行为”法律适用问题探析——从行政处罚的视角考量

Analysis of Appliance of Law on "Cross-law Behavior"

"跨法行为"由于行为跨越了新旧两部法,所以当新法与旧法对同一事项的规定不一致时,就产生了规范选择问题。在行政处罚法中,对"跨法行为"追究处罚时效通常是适用"行为终了时法"。然而,这种做法在法律适用实践中并不具有普遍合理性和可行性,甚至违背了法不溯及既往原则。文章从构建"行为时法优于裁处时法"规则出发,结合典型实例,对"跨法行为"的"行为时法"作出重新界定,对行为的持续状态与行为的后果作出明确区分,并就跨法行为的法律适用具体细则进行了分析与阐释。

＂Cross-law behavior＂ is the behavior which is related to both the old and newly enacted law, when the new law is inconsistent to the old,there ia a question about bow to elect suitbale law. In the pracfice,＂the cross-lawbetmvior＂ is usually suitable to ＂the law at the end of behavior ＂. However, this procedure does not have the universal rationality and the feasibility, even it has violated the principle of Retroactivity of law The article constructs the principle on ＂the old law surpass the new one＂, connected with typical example, makes the new definition of ＂the behavior-hour law＇about ＂ cross-law behavior＂ ,makes a clear discrimination between continuing behavior and the behavior consequence,and propose the analysis and the explanation, of appliance of law on ＂the cross-lawbehavior＂.
