名词

法官审判案件后宣读裁决的文书。

DEFINITION

Noun

The adjudication document that the judge reads out after hearing a case.

由来
  • 在听讼案件后，法官可以选择立刻做出判决并宣读判词，或将案件押后再审，以考虑适当的判决。
  • 法官宣读判词时，若被告罪名不成立，审讯就此结束。相反的，若被告罪名成立，案件便进入求情和判刑阶段。
  • 法官会依据四项原则判定适当的罪刑：罪犯应得到的报应、对罪犯的预防作用、罪犯有改过自新的意志、刑罚对社会的威慑作用。

ETYMOLOGY
  • After hearing a case, a judge has the option to deliver judgment and read the verdict immediately, or adjourn the case to further consider the appropriate judgment.
  • If the verdict is that the accused/defendant is not guilty, the trial ends. If the accused/defendant is convicted, the case will enter the intercession and sentencing phases.
  • In sentencing, the judge will determine the appropriate punishment based on four principles: retribution, i.e. the punishment the offender deserves; prevention of the offender’s ability to reoffend; the rehabilitative potential of the offender; and the deterrent effect on society at large.
