生态环境犯罪量刑规范化研究——以湖北省124份一审刑事判决书为样本考察

Research on the Standardization of Sentencing in Ecological Environment Crimes——Taking 124 Criminal Judgments of First Instance in Hubei Province as Samples

湖北地区作为长江流域生态文明建设的前沿阵地,生态环境犯罪态势不容忽视,污染环境罪量刑亦存在不规范的问题。通过实证分析,发现未制定专门的量刑规则、法官个体量刑的差异化、配套措施适用存在差异是导致污染环境罪量刑不规范的主要成因所在。为有效完善湖北地区生态环境犯罪量刑规范化,应制定专门性量刑规则,统一司法裁判尺度;构建培训常态化机制,缓解司法个体差异;加强配套措施的适用,促进量刑均衡发展。

As the frontier of ecological civilization construction in the Yangtze River Basin,the ecological environment crime situation in Hubei region cannot be ignored,the sentencing of environmental pollution crime is not standardized.Through empirical analysis,it is found that the lack of specific sentencing rules,the difference in individual sentencing by judges,and the differences in the application of supporting measures are the main causes of irregular penalties for environmental pollution crimes.In order to effectively improve the standardization of sentencing for ecological and environmental crimes in Hubei,special sentencing rules should be formulated to unify the standards of judicial rulings;a normal training mechanism should be established to alleviate individual judicial differences;the application of supporting measures should be strengthened to promote the balanced development of sentencing.
