控、辩平衡对律师辩护制度的要求

Plaintiff-Defendant Balance and its Requirement of the Defending System

控、辩平衡是保证法官“兼听”、实现诉讼公正的重要机制。立法以及司法实践中存在的对辩方权利的限制是控、辩失衡的现实原因。从立法入手限制控方的权利,保障并扩张辩方的权利以矫正现有的律师辩护制度,是诉讼程序正当性以及被告人人权保障的要求。具体说,就是要赋予辩护律师取证权、讯问时在场权、强化申请取证权、扩大阅卷范围等权利,并进一步完善法律援助制度,建立强制辩护制度。

The author holds that the plaintiff-defendant balance guarantees the just process of law cases and that the traditional practice of limiting the rights of the defendant undermines justice in general. It further points out that legislation ought to balance the two parties so as to offer due rights to the defendant.
