摘要
刑法第12条将本条适用局限在本法施行以前的行为,这一立法存在缺陷,缺乏预见性。最高人民法院公报上的案例部分弥补了立法的缺陷。立法将追诉时效不纳入到轻重比较的范围,但司法解释却反其道而行之。死刑复核程序适用溯及力,是错误的。"处刑较轻",包括法定刑和涉及刑的事项,还包括构成要件的改变,如果改成"有利于行为人的法律"更好。
There exists an obvious deficiency and is lack of foresight in the application of Article 12 of the Criminal Code which is confined to the behavior before the implementation of the Code.The case section of the Bulletin of the Supreme People＇s Court,however,has partly offset this deficiency.The limitation of prosecution is not included in the severity comparison scope by the legislation,while the judicial interpretation is doing exactly the opposite.And it is flawed that the procedure of death penalty review should apply to retroactive effect.＂A light sentence＂ not only refers to sentencing but also involves criminal matters,and even includes the change of elements.Therefore,it will certainly be better if Article 12 is revised to＂benefit the perpetrator＂.
