【摘要】美国《联邦证据规则》产生于法典化运动的背景下,一波三折的制定过程与四十多年来的发展历程是证据法领域独树一帜的存在。从《联邦证据规则》的演进历程来看,其主要发展趋势是:负责修订证据规则的专门机构从无到有,证据规则咨询委员会发挥愈加重要的作用;证据可采性的范围逐渐扩大,随着规则灵活性的增强,法官的审查义务逐渐加重;程序保障的程度不断增强;科技进步为证据认定带来便捷的同时,也动摇了传统的以证人为中心的证据法框架。对我国而言,证据法的发展面临着机遇和挑战,在立法上中国特色社会主义法治体系不断完善,司法上推进繁简分流和庭审实质化改革,技术上区块链等新兴事物层出不穷的新时代背景下,考察《联邦证据规则》的制定与发展趋势,可以为我国的证据法典化提供启发。
