受贿罪量刑失衡问题实证研究

从司法实践看,受贿罪量刑存在严重失衡现象,造成这一状况的原因既有潜规则盛行的因素,又有错误司法的原因.同时,现行法律和司法解释本身存在的缺陷与不足是导致量刑失衡的制度性要素.革除受贿罪量刑失衡的弊端,应当通过司法解释限制法官在量刑中的自由裁量权、确立同种数罪并罚的处罚原则和将数额、情节(非量刑情节)作为量刑的基础这三方面上取得突破.

An Empirical Study on the Imbalance of Sentencing for the Crime of Taking Bribes

In judicial practice, the sentencing measurement for accepting bribes has serious imbalance, whose reasons for this situation result from both prevailing unspoken rules and judicial errors. At the same time, the defects and shortcomings of existing laws and judicial interpretations themselves are institutional factors for the imbalance in sentencing. The removal of the drawbacks of the imbalance for accepting bribes sentencing should restrict judges discretion in sentencing via judicial interpretation, and establish the principles for joinder of punishment for plural crimes, and take bribed amount and circumstences as the basis of the sentencing.
