这本书揭示了当那些在英格兰和威尔士认为自己被错误定罪,并已用尽直接上诉程序的人申请由刑事案件审查委员会评估他们的案件时,定罪后审查的申请会发生什么。报告介绍了对委员会内部决策和酌处权使用情况进行的第一次全面实证研究的结果。它说明委员会如何行使其酌情权,查明和调查可能的错误定罪,以便上诉法院重新审理。它所借鉴的研究-一项为期三年的实证研究-包括对案件档案和汇总数据进行定量和定性分析的混合方法,以及与决策者的访谈和对委员会会议的观察,以从社会法律角度充分掌握组织的运作,并了解自由裁量权如何在个人和机构层面运作。
This book reveals what happens to applications for post-conviction review when those in England and Wales who consider themselves to have been wrongfully convicted, and have exhausted direct appeal processes, apply to have their case assessed by the Criminal Cases Review Commission. It presents the findings of the first thorough empirical study of decision-making and the use of discretion within the Commission. It shows how the Commission exercises its discretionary powers in identifying and investigating possible wrongful convictions for rehearing by the Court of Appeal. The research it draws on — a three year empirical study — comprises a mixed-method approach of quantitative and qualitative analysis of case files and aggregate data, as well as interviews with decision makers and observations of committee meetings to fully grasp the workings of the organisation from a socio-legal perspective and to understand how discretion operates at the individual and institutional level.
