摘要
在司法过程中民意不能作为裁判的规范性依据,但民意对于法律解释和漏洞补充具有重要价值。法官应当依据法律而非民意裁判案件,但可透过适当考量民意以使判决契合公众预期。在我国当下的司法实践中,由于司法判决自身的缺陷、职业思维与大众思维之间的抵牾以及社会转型过程中司法无法满足公众的要求等原因,使得司法判决市场遭遇民意的质疑与批判,司法机构可通过适当考量民意来化解司法与民意难题,法官考量民意时应对民意的合理性进行检验,汲取民意的合理成分,进而做出合法公平的判决。
Public opinions can＇ t be used as normative criterion in the judicial process. However, public opinions play an important role when judges interpret statutes and fill legal gaps. Judges shall make a judgment according to law rather than public opinions. In order to make judgment conform to public anticipation, judges should take public opinions seriously. In the present judicial practice, judicial decisions are often questioned by the public because of the defects of judicial decisions, the conflict between legal professional thinking and common thinking, and low judicial capacity. Judicial considerations of public opinions help to resolve the conflict between justice and public opinions. Judges need to review the reasonability of public opinions in the process of judicial considerations and make fair decision.
