How to make a good trial record?

The court record is a written record and copy of the whole process of court trial, and it is one of the important litigation files. The quality of the trial record not only reflects the personal professional quality of the clerk, but also reflects the quality of the trial and the overall image of the court, which is related to whether the judgment result can stand the test of history. An ideal trial record should meet at least three requirements: first, be faithful to the original appearance of the trial and record the trial process completely; The second is to accurately record the statements, excuses, opinions and opinions of the participants in the proceedings; Third, the format is standardized, the page is neat, clear and smooth, and there are no typos.

First, practice hard and constantly improve the typing speed.

When using miniature tape recorder to record the trial, the importance of typing speed is undoubtedly the first, which is the basis and foothold of doing a good job in the trial. Only by improving the typing speed can we adapt to the rhythm of the trial and record the trial content calmly and accurately. Generally speaking, the average person's speech speed is around 180-200 words/minute. Taking this as a standard, the typing speed of 80 words/minute is only the most basic requirement of court trial records, and it can basically meet the recording requirements when it reaches 120 words/minute. To achieve the purpose of leisurely recording, the typing speed must be 160 words. Frankly speaking, such a requirement is not easy to achieve, but there is nothing difficult in the world. As long as you work hard and practice seriously, it is not impossible to achieve this goal. Of course, in this process, not only perseverance and perseverance are needed, but also certain methods and skills are needed.

1. Make a training plan and practice in stages.

To practice typing, you must make a practical training plan for yourself. You can't rush for success, and you can't be exposed for one day and indifferent for ten days. First of all, test your typing speed and understand your situation. As a starting point, the training process is divided into several stages, such as improving 10 words per minute. Secondly, the impact stage goal, improve to a stage and remain stable, and then continue to impact the next stage goal. In the process of training, you can use some practice software to gradually improve the typing speed by practicing from easy to difficult. Third, we should avoid piecemeal and scattered practices, because the effect of such practices is not ideal. It is necessary to arrange working hours reasonably, strive for the support of the unit, and concentrate on intensive training at least 1 hour every day. Such training often gets twice the result with half the effort.

2. Pay attention to the accumulation of vocabulary and establish your own professional thesaurus.

Taking Wu Bi input method as an example, typing a word often requires four keystrokes, while typing a phrase containing two or more words only requires four keystrokes. From this, we can easily see that no matter what kind of input method, phrase input is very important to maintain the speed advantage. Therefore, we should pay attention to the accumulation of common words, especially professional words, in our daily work and practice. On the one hand, we should focus on phrase input and try our best to form a good habit of phrase input; On the other hand, we need to record phrases into the long-term input method and establish our own professional thesaurus. By accumulating and enriching the professional thesaurus, it is helpful to improve the typing speed.

Two, constantly explore the law of trial records, sum up experience and skills.

The objective gap between speech speed and typing speed is sometimes difficult to completely make up by simply improving typing speed. After the typing speed reaches a certain level, it is difficult to make a higher breakthrough, and there are also differences among clerks; Even if the typing speed is ideal, it will sometimes become unstable due to various factors. In fact, the trial has its inherent regularity, and the clerk is not required to record everything he hears. Therefore, he should be good at summing up experience and recording skills while trying to improve the recording speed.

1. Making the template of trial record

Some trial records are completely fixed procedural contents, such as the announcement of the cause and source of the case, the announcement of the members of the collegial panel and the list of participants in the proceedings, and the litigation rights enjoyed by the parties. And the procedures for announcing the end of the trial investigation, the court debate, the reading of evidence by both the prosecution and the defense, and the presentation of evidence. For this part of the content, you can make a filling template in advance, make appropriate changes according to different situations, or use file switching, copy and paste and other operating skills to add relatively fixed * * * content to the transcript at the right time. This can not only reduce the work intensity, but also improve the efficiency and accuracy of court trial records.

2. Read the papers before the trial, strengthen communication with the judge, and understand the case and the key points of the trial.

In addition to the above procedural contents, each case has different facts, plots and evidence. If you don't know the specific circumstances of the case, it is difficult to ensure the speed and accuracy of the record. This requires the clerk to make full preparations before the court session, and not to fight unprepared battles. First of all, we should read through all the files, master the names of the parties, their litigation status and their relationship, and the basic facts and circumstances of the case. By reading the files, we should be familiar with the language characteristics and expressions of the parties. Secondly, strengthen communication with judges and ask about the key points and key evidence of the trial, as well as the links that need special attention. It is necessary to grasp the whole picture of the case, pay attention to the key contents of the case, prepare and record it in a targeted manner, and improve the efficiency and effect of recording.

3, closely around the four elements of crime and important circumstances.

The purpose of criminal trial is to determine whether the defendant meets the four elements of crime according to the facts and evidence found in the trial, and on this basis, according to the provisions of the criminal law, to determine whether the defendant constitutes a crime and how to punish it. Accordingly, the trial transcript should also focus on the four elements of the crime constitution and the circumstances related to the correct sentencing. For the contents involving the defendant's subject, subjective aspects, objective aspects, and the object of infringement, as well as important circumstances such as recidivism, surrender, and meritorious service, we must highlight the key points and accurately record them, laying a solid foundation for the judge to correctly hear the case and ensure the quality of the case.

4, master the recording skills, to be detailed and appropriate.

In addition to the speed of speech, the expressive ability and organizational ability of the participants in the proceedings will also bring certain difficulties to the recording work. Therefore, it is necessary for the clerk to make a rational analysis, judge the real intention expressed by the participants in the proceedings, and make a reasonable choice on the basis of keeping the original appearance as much as possible, so as to be meticulous and appropriate. Recording skills generally include: first, avoiding questions and taking answers, giving priority to recording answers when there is no time to record all questions and answers; The second method is to discard the false and retain the true, analyze the true intentions of the participants who are far from the subject and have nothing to do with the case, and record the content that has nothing to do with the case; Third, adopt the new law and abandon the old law, and record the new viewpoints and opinions of the participants in the proceedings in detail, and the repeated contents can be brief; Fourth, when the pace of the trial slows down, or there is a gap between reading and presenting evidence, we can record it in detail, describe the tone and expression of the parties appropriately, or use this little time to revise and make up for the previous omissions.

Third, consciously improve the quality of the four aspects.

1, consciously improve political quality

Compared with the members of the collegiate bench, the clerk only performs daily work, but this does not mean that the clerk's work is not important. As a clerk, we should not relax our demands on ourselves, but should correctly understand the importance of the clerk's work, especially the court trial records. We should keep in mind the requirements of the Theory of Three Represents, establish a correct outlook on the world and life, base ourselves on our posts, take our own jobs as the starting point, and serve the people and the country's rule of law. Seriously study various systems and requirements, abide by professional ethics, be loyal to their duties, be honest and self-disciplined, and keep trial secrets; Speak politics at work, take care of the overall situation, regardless of personal gains and losses; Overcome difficulties, be proactive, unite and cooperate; Behave dignified and civilized, and consciously safeguard the image of the court.

2. Consciously improve the legal quality.

As a clerk, we should not only master the legal procedures and requirements of the criminal procedure law, but also master the basic theory of law and substantive law. The court record mentioned above should focus on the four elements of crime constitution and important sentencing circumstances. Analysis, judgment, reasonable choice, etc. are all based on a comprehensive and solid grasp of legal knowledge. If you don't even understand the meaning of the four elements of a crime, and the concept of legal terms is vague, how can you make a good trial record? Therefore, we must consciously learn legal knowledge, take the backbone of our business as an example, ask for advice modestly, learn by doing, digest and absorb in combination with practical work, achieve mastery through a comprehensive study, go deeper into the legal field step by step, and constantly improve legal cultivation.

3. Consciously improve cultural quality.

Although the trial transcript is an objective record of the trial process, it must be faithful to the original appearance of the trial, and it is not allowed to arbitrarily modify or artificially change the objective truth. However, under this premise, the analysis and induction of the clerk is not completely ruled out, which requires the clerk to have a high cultural level and legal knowledge. Clear court records, fluent language, accurate meaning, appropriate words and no typos are also inseparable from profound cultural accomplishment. Therefore, clerks should consciously learn cultural knowledge and constantly improve their writing level. We should not only be familiar with the correct writing and usage of commonly used Chinese characters, but also pay attention to the study of uncommon words and spoken words, especially some spoken words that have no corresponding Chinese characters. We should not only understand the meaning, but also master the substitute words closest to its original meaning, so as not to affect the speed and accuracy of recording.

4, consciously improve physical fitness

The work of court record is a high-intensity labor combining mental and physical strength. Some trials take an hour or two, sometimes you have to take notes of several trials a day, and some trials even take one or several working days to complete. When recording, the clerk is highly concentrated. Hearing, vision, brain memory, thinking and finger tapping on the keyboard turn language into words, and the body needs to maintain the same posture for a long time. It can be seen that good physical fitness is also an indispensable and important condition, otherwise the quality of trial records cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, in order to make a good record of the trial, the clerk must also combine work and rest, strengthen exercise, and make good physical preparations for completing the record with good quality and quantity at any time.

In a word, it is not a simple matter to make a good trial transcript, which requires not only the improvement and organic combination of all aspects of quality, but also the continuous exploration and summary of experience and lessons in practice. The above is the author's experience and views, I hope you can give me criticism and correction. (Author: Mudanjiang Railway Transport Court)
