關於裁判員裁判的量刑判斷過程──以圍繞著量刑檢索系統的議論為中心／緑大輔（譯文）

The Penalty Measurement Process of Japanese Referees’Decisions: A Discussion Focusing on the Sentencing Retrieval System

主要介紹在日本的裁判員制度下，法院如何運用量刑檢索系統的結果進行量刑，以及當量刑與量刑傾向發生逸脫時，該如何處理等問題。文中並犀利的指出量刑檢索系統在適用上已經發生或未來可能發生的問題，以及無法以量刑檢索系統處理的狀況。臺灣的國民法官法已於2023年上路，相關問題亦可能在今後的國民法官審判中發生，正如作者在一開始所寫到的，介紹日本這方面的討論，對於日後臺灣在實務、學說的運作上，有相當參考的價值。

This article is the text of a speech delivered by Professor Daisuke Midori at the Criminal Law Week seminar at National Chengchi University on March 9, 2023, and was subsequently revised and submitted to this journal by Professor Midori. The article focuses on how the court utilizes the results of the Sentencing Retrieval System when measuring penalties under the Japanese referee system, and how to deal with the situation in which there is a discrepancy between the sentencing and the sentencing tendencies. This article also points out explicitly the problems that have occurred or may occur in the future in the application of the sentencing retrieval system and the situations that cannot be addressed by the sentencing retrieval system. While the Citizen Judges Act in Taiwan has come into effect this year, related issues may also occur in the future citizen judges trial. As the author mentioned at the beginning, the introduction of this discussion in Japan may be a valuable reference for the future judicial practice and legal theory in Taiwan.
