行政复议举证责任若干问题研究

现行《行政复议法》关于举证责任规定存在凌乱、松散现象,因此也造成行政复议实践中难以适用和不明确问题,借鉴行政诉讼举证责任制度的理论以及实践,无疑是完善我国行政复议举证责任制度的重要路径之一。行政复议举证责任是指依据法律规定,被申请人、申请人等特定当事人对法律规定的事项或者当事人自己提出的主张,应当举出证据而加以证明,在没有证据或证据不足以证明的情况下将承担不利的法律后果的证据规则。行政复议举证责任概念是我们研究行政复议举证责任制度的出发点和基石,而在被申请人与申请人之间合理地分配举证责任是行政复议举证责任核心问题,采用法律条文形式明确规定行政复议举证责任对完善行政复议举证责任制度具有重要形式意义。
