- W2188646817 abstract "Taiwan’s original Code of Criminal Procedure (CCP) was enacted in 1935. Before 1997, Taiwan did not change much of its CCP. After 1997, Taiwan started to overhaul its criminal justice system and has since amended hundreds of provisions in the CCP. Taiwan’s criminal justice system is extremely different today from what it was in 1935 or 1997. There are three important changes in Taiwan’s recent reform of criminal justice. Firstly, Taiwan switched its trial procedure from an inquisitorial model to an adversarial one in 2002. Because of this change, prosecutors and defence lawyers now dominate the trial and question witnesses with great enthusiasm. Quarrels between defence lawyers and prosecutors, which were never seen in the past, have become a daily occurrence in the courtroom. In addition, a modified American-style ‘plea bargaining’ process was codified into the statute. For example, in 2008, 12,132 cases were adjudicated without trial but instead via a bargaining agreement between the parties. Second, the accused is endowed with more rights, and these rights are better protected than before. For example, the new CCP now requires the police to warn the arrestee of his or her right to silence and right to counsel. Failure to do so will lead to the exclusion of confessions obtained thereafter. Other significant human rights protections are rights such as the right to the effective assistance of counsel, the right of confrontation, the exclusionary rule, and the exclusion of evidence illegally obtained (known in the USA as ‘fruit of the poisonous tree’). Third, prosecutors’ powers are declining. Prosecutors no longer enjoy the power of issuing pre-trial detention orders for up to two months, and issuing search warrants and electronic surveillance orders. Unlike in the past, the decision whether or not to prosecute is also checked by the court. To date, these changes in Taiwan’s criminal procedure have been dramatic and significant, although controversial. The paper reports and discusses these major changes in Taiwan’s CCP." @default.
