作为我国两审终审制例外的死刑复核程序,是一种仅适用于死刑案件的特殊审判程序。是为了贯彻我国“少杀、慎杀,防止错杀”的刑事政策,实现“尊重和保障人权”的宪法规定而设置的一项特有制度。我国的死刑复核程序作为我国在保留死刑和将来废除死刑之间的一个过渡,将在一段时间内长期存在。 As an exception to the second instance trial system in China, the death penalty review procedure is a special trial procedure applicable only to death penalty cases. It is a peculiar system set up by our country to implement the criminal policy of “killing less, cautiously killing, preventing wrong and killing,” and implementing the constitutional principle of “respecting and safeguarding human rights.” China’s death penalty review process as a transition between the retention of the death penalty and the abolition of the death penalty in the future, will exist for a long time.
