「交互詰問制度為人類發現真實所發明之最偉大法律機制」。我國於九十二年一月十四日經立法院三讀通過交互詰問制度,使我國具有職權主義色彩之刑事訴訟法成為所謂「改良式當事人進行主義」。「交互詰問」於我國所代表之意義係刑事訴訟制度自「職權主義」轉變為「改良式當事人進行主義」之轉捩點。雖然「交互詰問」係英美法系「當事人進行主義」下之產物,惟我國之刑事訴訟法在修法後,仍帶有相當程度「職權主義」之色彩,故交互詰問與我國刑事訴訟法其他固有條文之間是否能緊密磨合,便成為現今我國刑事訴訟法之一大課題。 有鑑於此,首先,本文將先透過介紹美國及德國法制中關於交互詰問之規定及其相關制度之原理原則,試圖追本溯源找出外國關於交互詰問相關規定之立法背景,並藉此作為我國法上可能之參考,並找尋出適合我國修正及改進之方向。其次,本文將就交互詰問制度及其相關的配套措施加以討論,以求交互詰問制度發揮最佳效率。最後,由於交互詰問自刑事訴訟法民國九十二年修正並施行至今,累積不少實務上出現之問題,故本文試圖從我國實務關於交互詰問之運作方法及近年來法院之相關判決,探討目前審、檢、辯三方就交互詰問之運作所產生之問題及其因應之道。
“Cross-examination”. It has been called the greatest legal engine ever invented for the discovery of the truth. Since the statutory of the cross-examination went through the three-reading process in the Legislative Yuan in January 14th 2003, the criminal procedure law of ROC changes from the Official principle to the Refined Adversary System. The adoption of the “Cross-examination” had become the turning point of the criminal procedure law of ROC. Because of the cross-examination is based on the Adversary System, could it be suitable to our country had become an issue. Therefore, the thesis will first introduce both American and German which are entirely different legal system in order to provide suggestions for the cross-examination of ROC. Secondly, the thesis will introduce the relevant subject of cross-examination to evaluate the weak aspect. Finally, in terms of practical views on the procedure of cross-examination, the thesis based on the views of two parties and the court, hopes to clarify the process of present performance and solve the existing problems.
