2017年總統府召開司改國是會議,後續法律改革預期將重大影響刑事程序法的全貌,其發展有待未來觀察,本文僅聚焦在評論刑事程序法的實務發展,特別是最高法院的重要決議和裁判。整體來說,刑事救濟程序是2017年實務發展成果最豐富的領域。司法院釋字第752號解釋基於訴訟權之保障,宣告刑事訴訟法第376條禁止二審初受有罪判決之人上訴第三審違憲,促成修法。最高法院承認被告對宣告監護處分之無罪判決得提起上訴、受特赦之人得聲請再審,值得肯定;在強制辯護案件否定第二審法院指定辯護人協助被告上訴的義務,以及課予再審聲請人對於新事證確實性過高的舉證責任及說明義務,則是有待檢討。除此之外,面對法律未明訂的新型科技偵查手段,最高法院秉持強制偵查法定原則及隱私權保障的精神,宣告GPS跟監違法,對調取網路傳真適用相對法官保留原則,令人喝采!
In 2017, the office of the president convened the meeting of national judicial reform. We can expect and observe that the coming reforms will completely affect the criminal procedure law. This article focuses on commenting on the ractical developments of criminal procedure law, especially the important decisions, judgments and verdicts of the Supreme Court. On the whole, criminal relief procedure is the most plentiful field of practical development in 2017. Based on guaranteeing the right of legal proceedings, J. Y. Interpretation No. 752 declared article 376 of the Criminal Procedure Law forbidding defenders only guilty in the second instance to appeal to the third instance was unconstitutional and promoted the amendment. We approve that the Supreme Court admitted defenders can appeal for the judgment declaring not guilty but announcing custody and protection and people amnestied can apply for the retrial. However, it should be criticized that the Supreme Court denied the obligation of assignment of counselin the second instance to assist defender in appealing in compulsory counsel cases and obligated the application of retrial an excessive burden of proof or obligation to disclose about newly discovered evidence. In addition, we should applaud that when facing the newly technological detective measures not established in the law, the Supreme Court based on the principle of coercive measure according to law and protecting the right to privacy, declared the use of GPS for tracking is unconstitutional, and the obtainment of internet fax also applies to the principle of relative judge reservation. |
