防卫过当功能的再认识

防卫过当并不以正当防卫为前提和根据,如果确定防卫行为由于限度超过而成立防卫过当,则当然排除正当防卫的存在。防卫过当不具备犯罪构成的实质定罪功能,其定罪导向意义在于,为成立防卫过当的基础行为认定为犯罪提供一个方向性引导。防卫过当的正当防卫排除、定罪导向和量刑参照三项基本功能在逻辑和司法适用上呈层级递进关系。对防卫过当功能层次的认识具有重要的理论和实践意义。

There are three levels of function for excessive defense： excluding justifiable defense, directing constituting a crime and reference of penalty. The recognition of level function of excessive defense has important practical significance.
