被告人的年龄是认定被告人应否负刑事责任以及如何处罚的重要根据，因此在起诉书中准确表达被告人的年龄，不但有利于惩治犯罪，也有利于维护法律文书的严肃性。但是，应如何准确表述被告人的年龄，目前并无统一规定，不少地方的司法机关对被告人年龄的表述采用“现年某某岁” The defendant’s age is an important basis for determining whether an accused person should be held criminally responsible and how to punish him. Therefore, accurately expressing the accused’s age in the indictment not only helps punish crimes but also maintains the seriousness of legal documents. However, how to accurately represent the age of the accused, there is no unified provision at present. In many local judicial organs, the age of the defendant is stated as “certain age of the present year”
