上海市闵行区人民检察院指控被告人赵晨犯签订合同失职被骗罪，以(97)沪闵检侦诉字第41号起诉书向本院提起公诉。本院经审查，认为符合刑事诉讼法第一百五十条规定的开庭条件，于1998年12月24日受理后，依法组成合议庭，公开开庭审理了本案。上海市闵行区人民检察院检察员秦燕敏、代理检察员潘晓涛出庭支持公诉，被告人赵晨及其辩护人张升中、戴红儒到庭参加诉讼。本案经合议庭评议，提请院长提交审判委员会进行了讨论并作出决定，现已审理终结。@#
上海市闵行区人民检察院指控，1993年1月10日，原上海县劳动局干部姚关明、郝凤鸣至原上海县城乡建设发展总公司，向该总公司总经理赵晨介绍一批建筑线材业务，赵晨未过问供货单位的具体情况，仅凭朋友介绍认为可靠，即指派城乡公司下属月笼纱商店负责人沈才兴操办此事。此后，赵晨又向郝凤鸣就该业务的有关事项作了进一步商定。同月16日上午，赵晨不顾沈才兴提出先看提货单再付款的要求，让沈与郝签订总价1525000元的线材购销合同，当沈又提出本部门无资金时，赵不顾该业务的真伪，刻意让其兼任总经理的上海红康房地产公司先行借支。沈只得按赵的旨意与郝签订了该笔购销合同。当日郝凤鸣即将有关合同及支票送至供货单位上海大通科技工程公司业务部，该业务部承包人葛海根在收到1525000元货款后仅向城乡公司发了23万元的线材，其余货款用于还债及挥霍而无法返还。葛海根于1996年3月因诈骗罪被浦东新区人民法院判处有期徒刑14年。检察机关提供了有关的证人证言，赵晨的身份证明，有关合同、支票、账目、企业法人营业执照等书证，证明指控事实清楚，并确认被告人赵晨身为国有企业直接负责的主管人员，因其严重不负责任致使货款被骗，国家利益遭受重大损失，其行为构成签订合同失职被骗罪，提请本院依照刑法第一百六十七条规定判处。@#
对检察机关的指控，被告人赵晨辩解自己将业务介绍给红康建筑材料公司经理沈才兴，红康建材公司是独立法人，具体供货单位的情况应由沈才兴去了解并作出是否进行该业务的决定，沈才兴与大通公司签订合同，然后向我借款，我从红康房地产公司借给他150多万，支付货款也是沈决定的，故沈应负责。辩护人则提出赵晨不是签订合同的直接负责的主管人员，因此不存在严重不负责任的问题。红康建材公司与大通公司之间的债权债务关系，本可通过法律途径追偿，但红康建材公司因放弃了追诉权而造成损失，不能以此认定被告人赵晨犯签订合同失职被骗罪，故指控的证据不足，应宣告被告人无罪。@#
经审理查明，上海县城乡建设发展总公司(下简称城乡总公司)系原上海县建设局所属的国有企业。上海红康房地产总公司系中国红十字总会的国有企业。上述两公司系“两块牌子、一套班子”，但无任何行政、财务的隶属关系。1992年9月至1993年2月间，被告人赵晨兼任两公司的总经理、法人代表。@#
上海红康建筑材料公司(下简称红康建材)成立于1992年12月。是城乡总公司工会集体性质的三产企业，具有独立的法人资格，财务独立核算。月笼纱商店则是一个以城乡总公司名义独立经营的非独立非法人单位，持有总公司业务专用章，财务由总公司统一管理，但与总公司分立账户。城乡总公司工会主席沈才兴为红康建材经理、法人代表兼月笼纱商店负责人。@#
