摘要
在英美两国刑事诉讼中,未成年人在一定条件下具有证人资格,且资格的裁决需要遵循法定程序。与之相比,我国相关立法较为粗糙简单。未成年人证人资格认定之标准不尽合理,并未对裁决程序做出具体规定,以致在司法实践中产生操作困难。基于此,我国刑诉立法应当修改目前未成年人证人资格之标准,规定未成年人具备感知、记忆和表达能力即可作证,并且对未成年人证人资格的审查程序做出具体规定。
In criminal procedure of Britain and America, juveniles have competency of witness in certain condition,and the adjudication of competency requires to follow lawful procedure. Compared with that, relevant legislations in our country are rougher and simpler. The standard of competency of juvenile witness is not reasonable and there is not specific regulation about the adjudication of competency, leading to difficulties in handling in legal practices. Therefore, Chinese criminal legislations about the standard of competency of juvenile witness need to be modified and should rule that the juveniles who have the abilities to perceive, memorize and express can be witnesses. Besides, there should be specific regulations about the identification procedure of the competency of juvenile.
