法官错案责任追究制的改革问题研究--以刑事错案为视角的分析

摘要

The Fourth Plenary Session of the eighteenth of CPC proposes that the judicial personnel's job responsibilities should be cleared, and the lifelong responsibility system of case-handling quality and re-investigation system of misjudged cases should be performed, which coincides with the liability investigation system of misjudged cases in the law court and arouses the popular discussion in theory and practical working. Responsibility investigation system of misjudged cases strengthens the judges' responsibility and prevents judicial corruption, but aggravates the judicial personnel's responsibility and influences the rule of independence of trial and decision. This paper analyzes problems in the theory and practice of the responsibility investigation system of misjudged cases, and proposes some suggestions for the reform, hoping to benefit the improvement of this system.%中共十八届四中全会《决定》提出，“明确司法人员工作职责，实行办案质量终身负责制和错案责任倒查问责制”。这一举措与法院系统长期存在的法官错案责任追究制不谋而合。在理论界和实务界形成了广泛讨论，错案责任追究制对提高审判者责任心，防范司法腐败起了积极作用，但却加重了司法人员的责任，影响审判独立原则。笔者就错案责任追究制度在理论和实践中存在的问题进行剖析，并提出一些改革的建议，以期望为该制度的完善略尽绵薄之力。
