刑事附带民事诉讼制度反思与重构

刑事附带民事诉讼本质上是一种民事诉讼,仅在程序运作上具有“有限”的从属性,故最理想的模式是将其从刑事诉讼中分离出去,归并到民事诉讼中。但在目前条件下不宜立刻取消这一制度,而应在以下方面逐步加以完善:赋予当事人程序选择权;扩大请求赔偿损失的范围;限制附带民事诉讼案件的受理范围;明确附带民事诉讼的时效。

Incidental litigation belongs to civil action in essence. The ideal measure is to separate the incidental litigation from criminal action and classify it into civil action. But at present it is inappropriate to cancel the incidental litigation system but to perfect it in the following aspects: bestow the right of choosing the procedure on litigants,enlarge the range of requesting compensation for a loss, limit accepting the incidental litigation cases and regulate the prescription.
