【摘要】：法人犯罪的成立,既需要具备客观要件,也需要具备主观要件。法人犯意的认定,不能简单地将法人雇员的犯意直接归属于法人,而应当将法人作为一个独立的人格体来对待,从法人整体的组织结构、决策程序、政策文化等方面来考察其犯意内容。在涉及产品质量的犯罪中,隐瞒产品缺陷是认定法人犯意的一个极其重要的因素。隐瞒产品缺陷是违反行业文化的悖德行为,是法人犯意认定的基础。如果所隐瞒的产品缺陷是国家法律、行业规范所明确禁止的,则悖德程度严重,足以认定存在犯意。在丰田"召回门"事件中,丰田公司之所以最终未被诉诸刑事审判,根本原因在于其并未向公众隐瞒产品缺陷。
[Abstract]:The establishment of legal person crime requires both objective and subjective elements. To identify the criminal intent of a legal person, we should not simply attribute the criminal intent of the employee of the legal person to the legal person, but treat the legal person as an independent personality, from the overall organizational structure and decision-making procedure of the legal person. Policy culture and other aspects to examine its criminal intent. Concealment of product defects is an extremely important factor in determining the criminal intent of legal person in the crime of product quality. Concealing product defects is contrary to industry culture and is the basis of legal person's criminal intent. If the hidden product defects are explicitly prohibited by national laws and industry regulations, then the degree of immorality is serious enough to identify the existence of criminal intent. In the case of Toyota's "recall door," Toyota ultimately did not go to criminal trial because it did not hide product defects from the public.
