专家辅助人制度的问题与改革——基于我国侦查实践的研究

新《刑事诉讼法》设立的专家辅助人制度,将其适用范围限定在了庭审阶段。但根据我国目前的司法实践来看,刑事诉讼中的鉴定争议大都集中于初查或侦查阶段,因此部分侦查机关已将该制度应用于侦查阶段的鉴定程序中,并取得了较好的效果。由此看来,仅仅在庭审阶段建立专家辅助人,必然存在较多局限,而侦查阶段的鉴定程序建立专家辅助人制度势必具有必要性与可行性。因此,立法应根据诉讼实践,对目前的专家辅助人制度进行完善,以建立合理可行的侦查阶段专家辅助人制度。

The Problem and Reform of the Expert Assistant System in Criminal Proceedings --A Research Based on the Investigation Practice in China

The new Criminal Procedure Law has set up the expert assistant system, but limited its application to the trial peri- od. According to the present judicial practice in China, most of the disputes regarding criminal appraisal are focused on the preliminary investigation or the investigation period. Because of this, some investigation organs have applied this system to the identification procedure in investigation period, and have achieved good effect. The fact that the expert assistant system can only be applied in the trial period has some limitations. It is necessary and feasible to establish the expert assistant system in the identification procedure of the investigation period. Based on litigation practice, we should make the eurrent expert assis- tant system more complete, and to make this system more reasonable and feasible in the investigation period.
