论量刑程序分立

On the Independence of the Sentencing Procedure

量刑规范化改革的一个重要方面是程序改革。现行刑事诉讼制度中量刑方面存在多种缺陷,这些缺陷和问题的产生,很大程度上是由于刑事诉讼程序所采用的定罪量刑合一的模式。刑事诉讼制度的体系化特性,决定了量刑改革不可能仅仅依靠程序上的分离,而是需要从整体上对刑事诉讼制度进行调整。在现有体制内进行修正,或将定罪量刑分而治之,是两种不同的改革方案。通过对两种模式的可行性和必要性分析,可以得出结论,将定罪与量刑在程序上分而治之是最佳方案。

The sentencing standardization is one of the main parts of legal procedure reform.The current criminal procedure has many limitations in its sentencing,mainly owing to the oneness of convicting and sentencing.The systematization of the criminal system requires that the sentencing should not be only based on the procedure separation and the criminal procedure as a whole should be reformed.There are two reforming alternatives： one is to modify the current procedure without dramatic changes,the other is to separate the convicting from the sentencing.After analyzing the feasibility and necessity of the two,the paper concludes that the latter is the appropriate solution.
