국선변호인제도의 개혁방안

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Our Constitution guarantees the right to assistance of Counsel for defence to all the citizens and the State-Appointed Counsel System has it's root in the Constitution. Recently there has been a dispute over 'Who has the right to appoint the state-appointed counsel: the Court or Lawyer's Association.' The Constitution demands that the formation of state-appointed Counsel system should be based on the division of power and due process of law.
In our criminal procedure law, the judge has broader powers in the finding the substantial truth than the American judge of criminal court has. The concept of 'neutrality of judge' in our criminal system is different from that of neutrality of judge in American criminal system. So the appointment power of judge over the state-appointed Counsel can be justified because he have to find a concrete truth in the criminal cases with exercising the broad power that he has in the criminal procedure law.
In current state-appointed Counsel system the judge who appointed the state-appointed Counsel also supervise the state-appointed Counsel without any reasonable grounds. According to the division of power, the appointment power over the state-appointed Counsel and the supervision power of that should be divided to separate agencies.
In addition, the accused also should have a certain role in the appointment of state-appointed Counsel and dismissal of state-appointed Counsel. The accused has the concrete interests in the appointment of state-appointed Counsel because the Counsel can help the accused exercise the rights that are guaranteed in the criminal procedure law.
