论量刑规范化视野下法官量刑思维的确立——以《人民法院量刑指导意见》为视角

On the Establishment of Sentencing Discretion in the Perspective of Sentencing Standardization from the Perspective of Sentencing Guidance on Common Crime

量刑差异和量刑不公是量刑规范化引入司法裁判实践的主要理由。从实践来看,量刑规范化在一定程度确实规范了法官的裁判量刑行为,有助于量刑统一和避免量刑不公。但是,简单从刑量规范的角度出发,尚不能充分尊重法官的量刑思维规律,其在限制法官自由裁量的同时,也间接为滥用刑罚裁量权提供了更隐蔽的空间。因此,量刑规范化应反对量刑数字化和量刑教条化,支持通过清晰量刑步骤,进而通过充分的裁判说理实现量刑公正。

Sentencing differences and unfair sentencing are the main reasons for introducing sentencing standardization into judicial practice. In practice,the standard of sentencing is mainly based on the standard of the penalty,which,to a certain extent,does standardize the sentencing behavior of judges,and is helpful to the unity of sentencing and avoiding unfair sentencing. However,the standard of simple punishment does not fully respect the law of judges＇ thinking of sentencing,which,while restricting judges＇ discretion,indirectly provides a more hidden space for abusing criminal law discretion. Therefore,the standardization of sentencing should oppose the digitalization of sentencing and the dogmatism of sentencing,and support the adoption of clear sentencing steps,so as to achieve sentencing justice through adequate adjudicative reasoning.
