As the fight against corruption continues to deepen, the number of official misconduct cases—primarily involving bribery offenses—remains on a fairly rapid upward trajectory. At the same time, the amounts involved in these official misconduct cases keep shattering previous perceptions. Under the current judicial interpretation, which stipulates that embezzlement and bribery amounts exceeding 3 million yuan will result in a sentence of more than ten years’ imprisonment, whether the defendant can have their legal liability reduced and receive a lighter sentence often hinges on whether they qualify for the self-surrender and meritorious service provisions set forth in Articles 67 and 68 of the Criminal Law—these provisions frequently become the defendant’s last “lifeline.” However, in judicial practice, due to inconsistencies in judicial philosophies and differences in evidence-gathering approaches, the determination of self-surrender circumstances often becomes a contentious and difficult issue throughout the course of case handling. Drawing on common problems encountered in judicial practice, the author examines the current practical challenges in identifying self-surrender circumstances in official misconduct cases, thereby calling for the consolidation of consensus within judicial practice.
[Lawyer’s Perspective] A Comparative Legal Examination of the Miranda Rule
The Miranda Rule, born out of the Miranda case in Arizona, USA, in the 1960s, has had a profound impact on the history of law. In essence, the Miranda Rule brought to public attention—through a sensationalized approach—the suspect’s right to remain silent and the right to have an attorney present (the right to legal counsel)—leaving an indelible impression on everyone. Although some countries’ laws had already addressed the rights to silence and to counsel prior to this, it was the Miranda Rule that explicitly required that these rights be clearly and unmistakably informed to the suspect; otherwise, the procedure would be deemed unlawful. In fact, the Miranda Rule is not unfamiliar to the general public. We often see it portrayed in movies and TV shows—particularly in Hong Kong dramas—where officers frequently say during arrests: “You have the right to remain silent, but everything you say may be used against you in court.” That’s precisely the Miranda Rule (also known as the Miranda Warning)—though the full text of the Miranda Rule encompasses much more than just this brief statement.
