Features: The establishment of cases by People's Courts, Procuratorates, or Public Security organs requires certain standards. The standard for case establishment refers to the threshold of amount or circumstances required for the objective aspect of a crime, which can be categorized into amount standards, circumstance standards, act standards, result standards, and danger standards. The standard for conviction is the crime constitution. The crime constitution includes four elements: the object of the crime, the objective aspect of the crime, the subject of the crime, and the subjective aspect of the crime. Conviction also requires attention to the distinction between crime and non-crime, this crime and that crime, as well as the issue of one crime versus multiple crimes. The standard for sentencing is the measure used by People's Courts to impose penalties after conviction. Sentencing must consider circumstances. Sentencing circumstances can be divided into statutory circumstances and discretionary circumstances, lenient circumstances and severe circumstances. Lenient circumstances include lenient punishment, reduced punishment, and exemption from punishment. To help judges, procurators, public security officers, lawyers, and other citizens fully and accurately understand relevant criminal law provisions, facilitate case handling, we have invited experts and scholars from the Supreme People's Court, the Supreme People's Procuratorate, the Ministry of Public Security, China University of Political Science and Law, and Peking University to compile the "Standards for Case Establishment, Conviction, and Sentencing Series."
