法治视野下的律师辩护权——兼评高法刑诉法解释(征求意见稿)第250条

Defending Rights of the Attorney under the Rule of Law——and Comments for the Judical Interpretation of Article 250 of the Criminal Procedural Law(Draft for Comment)

律师的辩护权是律师群体的一项重要职业权利。尽管在中国没有被列为公民的基本权利,但在一系列国际法律文件中被明确为基本人权。在刑事诉讼结构中,控辩双方力量相对均衡才能有效保障法官作出客观公正的裁判。刑诉法司法解释(征求意见稿)第250条虽对律师辩护权进行了规范,但该条第2款的规定仍有四点不当之处,包括违背控辩双方法律地位平等的基本要求,不符合正义的基本要求,超越法律的规定,损害律师群体形象。

The right to defense is an important professional privilege of the lawyers＇ group. It isn＇t a basic right of citizens in China, but it is definitely a basic human right in successive international legal documents. The prosecution and the defenee have the same forces to counter each other in order to guarantee justice and to make the judge objective in the structure of the criminal procedures. The judical interpretation of article 250 of the criminal procedural law （ draft for comment） standardizes the lawyers＇ right to defend. This thesis raises four points to question Item 2, Article 250 ,namely, violating the claim for equal legal Status between the procecution and the defense, failing to meet the basic requirements of justice, going beyond the provisions of the law and damaging the image of the lawyers.
