Abstract

French literature pertaining to felony courts has used quantitative-descriptive or sociological critical approaches. It has portrayed an assembly line system where offenders are industrially processed. However, this literature has not documented the consequences this processing has on the interactions between the accused and judicial practitioners. This article attempts to bridge this gap. It analyses the felony hearings which took place during a year in the three chambers of a local court, by using a semi-ethnographic methodology. Data was coded with a legitimacy of justice-procedural justice-therapeutic jurisprudence (LJ-PJ-TJ) analytical grid. In the majority of cases, the interactions with the accused did not meet LJ-PJ-TJ criteria. French felony courts are noisy, summary, and dehumanised. However, there were interesting exceptions to this rule: the collegial chamber was significantly more respectful and dignified than the one-judge chamber; at an individual level, a strong minority of judges meet the majority of the LJ-PJ-TJ criteria.

你当我是白痴还是什么?从司法合法性和治疗法学角度分析法国重罪法庭
法国有关重罪法庭的文献采用了定量描述或社会学批判的方法。这些文献描绘了一个流水线系统,在这个系统中,罪犯被工业化地处理。然而,这些文献并未记录这种处理方式对被告与司法从业人员之间的互动所产生的后果。本文试图弥补这一不足。文章采用半人种学方法,分析了当地法院三个审判庭在一年内进行的重罪听证会。数据采用司法合法性-程序正义-治疗法学(LJ-PJ-TJ)分析网格进行编码。在大多数情况下,与被告的互动不符合 LJ-PJ-TJ 标准。法国重罪法庭嘈杂、简易、缺乏人性。不过,也有一些有趣的例外情况:合议庭明显比独任审判庭更加尊重和庄重;在个人层面,极少数法官符合 LJ-PJ-TJ 标准中的大多数标准。
