是否應以刑事程序來保護著作權人之利益,一直以來是學界爭論的問題,而台灣著作權法從立法之初就具有刑事處罰規定,並且隨著歷年修法,不斷增加處罰規定、放鬆構成要件之限制與刑度上下限。即使部分修法過程中,有擴大合理使用範圍或是增加著作財產權行使之限制規定,但結果來說,著作權刑罰規定的擴張在實定法層面上是不爭的事實。本文在此希望透過蒐集審判機關與檢察機關之統計資料與利用司法院之法學資料檢索系統,觀察目前著作權法之刑事責任在實務上的適用結果,分別自著作權法刑事案件在實務上之偵查案件數、審判案件數、起訴率、一審科免刑率、通常程序二審維持率、確定判決定罪率等出發,並以其他相近之財產犯罪為對照組,探討台灣著作權侵權刑事案件是否有隨法律修正,而擴大對使用者論以刑罰之趨勢,並分析造成或未造成這樣趨勢可能之原因。另外也會依據本文實證統計之結果,與先前研究所得之結果相對照,討論與其他相近之財產犯罪相較,違反著作權法刑事案件在近年來之特性與變化。最後則以上述推論結果,提供立法者與相關研究者未來在修法上的一個可能的思考方向。

| 英文摘要: |
It has been a debate in the academic community whether criminal liability should be applied in protecting the interests of copyright owners. In Taiwan, the Copyright Act has contained criminal punishments since its legislation, and, with later legislative revisions increased punishment provisions, de-limited the constituents of criminal punishments, and expanded the extent of punishment. Despite the fact that those revisions in part also increased the application of fair use or imposed limits for exercising economic rights, the expansion of copyright criminal punishments is indisputable. This Article will, through collecting empirical data from adjudicatory and prosecutor organs and making use of the Judicial Yuan Juristic Information System, observe copyright criminal liability in practice. Specifically, in approach, this Article will make a comparative study of copyright crimes with similar property crimes, by analyzing the number of cases under investigation, the number of cases on trial, prosecution rate, the rate of exempting from punishment on the first instance, the rate of sustaining the original judgment on the second instance in normal procedure, and the rate of guilty verdict. This Article aims to explore and explain whether copyright criminal cases will possibly expand the use of criminal liability in tandem to legislative revisions. Besides, this Article will compare its finding with prior studies based on the results of empirical analysis, and discuss the features and changes of copyright criminal cases in recent years. Finally, suggestions will be proposed for legislators and scholars on future legislative revisions.
