Introduction
Standard Framework and Technological Evolution
As a sister version of SF/T 0085-2020, this standard establishes a quantitative evaluation system for the quality of criminal legal aid cases for the first time, and realizes industry self-regulation through the peer evaluator mechanism. Compared with Document No. 34 issued by the Ministry of Finance in 2013, the main breakthroughs are reflected in:
| Dimensions | Traditional evaluation methods | SF/T 0086—2020 Innovation |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation subject | Administrative personnel take the lead | Lawyers with more than 10 years of practicing experience serve as peer assessors |
| Indicator design | Qualitative evaluation is the main method | A quantitative system of 8 primary indicators + 19 secondary indicators |
| Procedural guarantee | Single review | Three-level procedure of initial review, re-review and objection review |
Analysis of core evaluation indicators
5.1 Evaluation of effectiveness of meetings
At least one meeting is required in each litigation stage, and the meeting record must be signed and confirmed by the beneficiary. In special cases:
- Crimes endangering national security: Failure to obtain permission for a meeting during the investigation stage will not affect the rating
- Remote video meeting: Confirmation records must be retained
5.4 Quality requirements for legal opinions
Three quality levels are distinguished:
- Unqualified: Simply copying the opinions of the previous stage or not submitting them on time
- Qualified: With basic analysis and argumentation
- Excellent: The opinions are adopted by the case-handling agency (such as a decision not to prosecute)
Differentiated evaluation rules
| Litigation stage | Number of applicable indicators | Requirements for excellent cases |
|---|---|---|
| Investigation stage | 6 items | ≥3 items of excellent and no unqualified |
| Review and prosecution stage | 7 items | ≥4 items of excellent and no unqualified |
| Trial stage | 8 items | ≥5 items of excellent and no unqualified |
Implementation Suggestions
Quality Improvement Mechanism
It is recommended to establish:
- Evaluation result notification system: Regularly publish typical unqualified cases
- Dynamic subsidy mechanism: Link the evaluation level with the case handling subsidy level
- Training of assessors: at least 2 case studies per year
Key points for risk prevention and control
Key points for verification:
- No application for obtaining evidence of innocence when no evidence of innocence is found
- Failure to fully inform the rights of guilty pleas
- Failure to fulfill reporting obligations in major cases
