刑事再审请求审的证据审查模式

The Evidence Examination Pattern in Criminal Retrial Applications

当事人申诉为启动再审审判的一种方式,再审请求审的审查是开启再审审判的关键。再审请求审与再审审判是再审程序两个不同的阶段。再审请求审的核心内容为司法机关通过审查案件中的证据发现是否存在再审理由。再审请求审在本质上不属于一种正式的审判程序,审查的内容不涉及案件的实体问题,故在证据审查模式上有其独特性。再审请求审阶段的证据审查,一方面要明确新证据的范围,另一方面要对新证据和旧证据予以合理评价。除此之外,再审请求审的证据审查模式不仅要符合再审的基本理念,还要权衡法的安定性与实体公正性之间的价值冲突。

One of the ways to activate the retrial process for the petitioner is to file a complaint.Therefore,the petition review becomes the key factor.Retrial examination and the retrial itself are two separated proceedings.The former is meant to examine or to review the evidentiary materials in order to find whether there is enough evidence to initiate the retrial process.And this examination is formally conducted and has nothing to do with the substantial issues,which are its distinguished character.Retrial examination,on the one hand,is meant to define the "new evidence",and on the other hand,it has to reasonably evaluate the new and the old evidence.In addition,while the evidence examination in retrial request must fit the basic principles,it also has to properly strick a balance between the stability of law and the substantial justice.
