量刑程序的裁判权控制

Adjudication Control of the Procedure of Penalty Measurement

与其他大陆法国家一样,中国刑事诉讼法确立了定罪与量刑一体化的程序模式。按照这一模式,刑事审判程序的设置主要是围绕着控制定罪问题而展开的,定罪依据与量刑依据的不对称、量刑程序中的缺乏诉讼权、量刑程序证据规则的缺失等,使法官不能充分考虑量刑的各种因素,不能体现量刑的个别化,无法实现对量刑程序的裁判权控制,容易造成自由裁量权的滥用。因此应建立定罪与量刑的分离程序,设计量刑控制为中心的证据规则,建立量刑听证制度,并设计相关的配套制度,将控辩审的对抗理念和模式引入量刑中,有效制约法官在量刑上的自由裁量权。

Just as other civil law countries, the China＇ s Criminal Procedure Law establishes the procedure model of unified convic- tion and sentencing process. According to this model, the criminal justice process is set mainly around the controlling sentencing. Unsymmetric conviction basis and penalty measurement basis, the lack of litigious right in the procedure of penalty measurement, the miss- ing of evidence rules in the procedure of penalty measurement could not make the judge consider kinds of elements of penalty measure- ment, not show the specialization of penalty measurement, not achieve the adjudication control of the procedure of penalty measurement. All of these will cause the abuse of free discretion easily. Therefore, in order to constrain the free adjudication of the judge in sentencing effectively, separation procedure on conviction and sentencement should be built. Evidence rules with the control of penalty measurement as center should be designed. The hearing system of sentencing and relative systems should be put up. The opposing ideas and pattern of trial of charging and defending should be considered in the sentencing.
