论我国刑事缺席审判制度的适用限度问题——兼议我国刑诉法修正案

The Limitation of the Application of the System Criminal Default Trial Justice in China——Consideration on the Amendment of Criminal Procedure Law

2018年《中华人民共和国刑事诉讼法(修正案)》正式确定了刑事缺席审判制度,从适用范围、适用条件及适用程序等方面构建起我国刑事缺席审判制度的具体框架,但还存在案件适用范围规定不周延,对被告人权利保障规定不完善等瑕疵,给我国刑事缺席审判制度的健康运行埋下隐患。我国应当借鉴域外先进的经验并根据我国司法实际,探寻我国刑事缺席审判适用的合理限度,严格规范缺席审判的适用案件范围及类型,严格规范缺席审判的适用条件,完善被告人权利保障机制,以规范该制度的适用。

The amendment of the Criminal Procedure Law of 2018 formally established the criminal trial system,which sets up the specific framework of criminal default trial system of the scope of application,applicable conditions and applicable procedures.But there are still flaws in the amendment,for example,the scope of the stipulations is not extended,and the provisions on the protection of the rights of the defendants are not perfect,which poses a hidden danger to the healthy operation of the system.We should learn the advanced experience from foreign countries and explore the reasonable limitation of the application of criminal trials according to the judicial practice in China,strictly regulate the scope and types of applicable cases in trials in absentia,strictly regulate the applicable conditions of trials in absentia,and improve the rights protection mechanism of defendants to standardize the application of the system.
