中國目前所建立的案件質量評估制度，旨在以量化的方式對整體司法活動進行考核、匯總與引導，汲取了當前技術水平、認知水平進步所帶來的福利，促使審判管理實現科學化、精細化、系統化的轉型。但在現有條件下，案件質量評估制度卻無法實現設計者的主觀意圖。制度設計的失誤與指標治理的困境，阻礙了制度預期的「指揮棒」功能的發揮。實際上，案件質量評估制度根本就沒有能力滿足社會的此種功能需求。功能互惠結構中的案件質量評估制度，受到結構的宰制而失去功能自主，反而產出了強化司法行政化的隱性功能。

Research on the Function of the System for Assessing the Quality of Legal Cases

Dajun QIAN

The aim behind the system that wase stablished for assessing the quality of legal cases in China was to transform the way trials are managed by taking a quantitative approach to examining, summarizing, and guiding judicial activities, drawing on current technology. However, the intention of the designers of the system cannot be achieved under existing conditions. Institutional design errors and disagreements over indicators of governance are hindering the system from playing the “baton” function that was envisioned. In fact, the case quality assessment system simply cannot meet the social needs of this function. For structural reasons, the case quality assessment system has lost its autonomy, while the latent function of judicial administration has been strengthened.
