试论证明妨碍之构成

On the elements of proof impediment

证明妨碍制度的科学设计对于完善民事证据制度有着重要意义,而立法和学理上关于证明妨碍构成要件的认识多有不一,因而有必要进行探讨以作明辨。在确立证明妨碍的构成要件时,应当从此项制度的设立目的出发,区分不同情况并谨慎操作,不能一概而论。

The design of the proof impediment system is significant for the perfection of the evidential system; yet, there is no universal agreement, neither in legislation nor in academia, on the constitutive elements of proof impediment. It is suggested that, when identifying the key elements of proof impediment, we should take the purpose of the proof impediment system as the starting point and proceed cautiously with different situations taken into consideration.
