| 释义 | 扣減刑罰 In criminal law, the reduction of an otherwise appropriate sentence warranted by the seriousness of the offence by reason of some factors mitigating the severity of the sentence for reasons of policy rather than because of subjective matters personal to the offender. Examples are the discount for a plea of guilty: R v Byrne [1997] 1 Cr App R (S) 165; R v Kwok Chi Kwan & Anor [1990] 1 HKLR 293; and the discount for assistance given to the authorities: S-J v Choi Wing Wah [1998] 4 HKC 373. See also Plea bargaining; Sentence. 在刑事法上，指因政策理由而非針對有關罪犯個人的主觀事項，而可藉若干可減輕有關刑罰嚴重性的因素，扣減在其他情況下根據有關罪行的嚴重性屬適當判處的刑罰。例如因承認控罪而獲扣減刑罰：R v Byrne [1997] 1 Cr App R (S) 165；R v Kwok Chi Kwan & Anor [1990] 1 HKLR 293；及向有關當局提供協助而獲扣減刑罰：S-J v Choi Wing Wah [1998] 4 HKC 373。另見 Plea bargaining; Sentence。 |
