摘　　要：当犯罪人具有可以变更法定量刑幅度的量刑情节时,法定最高刑的可能改变是否可以影响追诉期限的计算,素来是中国学理和实务中有争议的问题。持否定说立场之通说,会得出合理性和合法性均存疑的结论;既有的各种肯定说方案,又会不当扩大或者限缩司法机关的自由裁量权。应当提倡“法定限制肯定说”,即基于实质解释论立场,对《刑法》第61条进行扩大解释。解释结论为,只有幅度变更必然情节才能影响追诉期限,幅度变更或然情节则不应影响追诉期限。此说既能合理地确立量刑情节对追诉期限的影响,又能实现对司法裁量权的有效制约。When the offender has sentencing circumstances that can change the range of the penalty,whether a possible change in the statutory maximum penalty can affect the calculation of the limitation of prosecution has always been a controversial issue in China’s doctrine and practice.Holding the negative position,which is the major theory,will come to the conclusion that the reasonableness and legality are doubtful.The existing various affirmative theories,will unduly expand or limit the discretion of the judicial organs.The“affirmative theory of statutory limitations”should be advocated,i.e.,an expanded interpretation of Article 61 of the Criminal Law based on the position of the theory of substantive interpretation.The conclusion of this interpretation is that only sentencing circumstances with inevitably variable sentencing range can affect the limitation of prosecution,conversely,sentencing circumstances without inevitably variable sentencing range can not affect the limitation of prosecution.This theory can reasonably establish the influence of sentencing circumstances on the limitation of prosecution,and can also realize effective constraints on judicial discretion.
