Sample Sentences
这就跟两个国家的法律体系有关了。中国的法律属于大陆法系,也叫成文法。就是说,所有的法律都是通过法律条文一一写出来的。美国的法律体系就完全不一样了。它属于英美法系,也叫案例法。它是根据法官或者陪审团的决议判定的。这样一来,法官就具有比较大的自主权,能根据每个案件的实际情况来裁定。所以美国的法官一般都需要很深的资历。
That has to do with the difference between the two countries' legal systems. Chinese law belongs to the mainland legal system. It's also known as ''statute law." It means that all the laws are written out, one by one. The American legal system is completely different. It belongs to the Anglo-American legal system. It's also called precedent law. It's decided according to judges' or juries' judgments. In this way, the judges' power is relatively great. They can rule according to the actual facts of each case. So American judges generally need a lot of experience.
中国的法官怎么都这么年轻?在美国,法官可都是资历深厚、德高望重的人物。
Why are Chinese judges so young? In America, judges are all very experienced people with great moral authority.
中国也有陪审制度,叫人民陪审员。但是,他们的作用和美国的陪审团很不一样。在美国,陪审团的作用是巨大的。他们能决定最后的判决。同时也是维持司法公正的重要保障。在英美法系里,陪审团和法官分工明确。前者负责认定案件事实,后者负责适用法律。如果陪审团裁断无罪,法官当即宣告被告人无罪,当庭释放。如果裁断有罪,法官则会依法量刑。
China also has the jury system. It's called the People's jury. But their role is different from American juries. In America, the jury is really important. They can make the final judgment. And they are an important protection for maintaining the impartiality of the law. In the Anglo-American legal system, juries and judges have a clear division of labor. The former is responsible for confirming the real facts of the case, while the latter is responsible for applying the law. If the jury finds ''not guilty," the judge immediately announces that the defendant is not guilty, and releases him at once. If, on the other hand, they find him ''guilty," the judge sentences him according to the law.
他们不能决定判决,而是与法官一起审判案件。中国的陪审员制度是从不同的角度分析案件,使法官听取来自业外人士的意见,丰富思维判断。同时对法官进行监督和约束。
They can't decide cases, and they try cases together with the judge. The Chinese jury system analyzes cases from different perspectives, and makes judges hear views from outsiders with a lot of knowledge. At the same time, they observe and restrain the judges.
听你一说,我觉得中国的法律体系相信成文的规定,讲究互相制衡。而美国更注重个人的权利。不过我很好奇律师的作用。既然在中国,法官和陪审员的作用不是很大,那么律师可以派什么用场呢?
To hear you tell it, China's legal system believes in the rule of law, and puts a lot of value on mutual balance. America seems to pay more attention to individual rights. But I'm also very curious about the roles of lawyers. Since in China the role of the judges and the jury is not very important, what good are lawyers?
