法官直判案件问题研究

赋予法官对发生在法庭上的藐视法庭案件直接判决的权力,是维护法庭尊严和权威的需要.法庭上法官直判案件实际上是审判权对公诉权的分割,过多适用必然会侵害公诉权,违背现代诉讼制度的基本原则.为保证法官直判应用适当,防止或最大限度降低不良效应,对直判案件的范围必须设置适当的界限.同时,在法官直判案件中,应遵循一系列原则,使其受到法律的合理规制.在我国,由于历史上没有法官至上的传统,法庭尊严和权威未得到维护,导致司法实践中扰乱法庭秩序、证人拒绝出庭、判决拒绝执行等现象屡见不鲜,严重影响庭审的顺利进行和对判决的认同感与尊重.因此,我国应确立藐视法庭罪,同时赋予法官时发生在法庭上的部分藐视法庭案件直接判决的权力,以树立法庭应有的尊严和权威.

Study on Summary Decisions in Court

To empower the judge to make summary decisions on contempt of court is necessary for defending the dignity and authority of the court.The power to make summary decisions in court is actually a form of division of the public prosecution power,and the excessive use of it will inevitably infringe the power of public prosecution,hence we must fix certain limitations to it.Meanwhile,a series of rules should be obeyed while making summary decisions.Historically,there are no court-centered traditions in China and the dignity and authority of the court is not well maintained.Such offences as disturbance of court order,refusal of presence in court by witnesses,refusing to perform court decisions,etc.happen frequently,which badly obstructs the smooth process of court trial and affects people's respect for court decisions.Consequently,the crime of contempt of court should be established,and entitle judges the competence to make certain summary decisions in order to defend the dignity and authority of the court.
