According to Norwegian legislation, "sexual activity with a person who is unconscious or for other reasons incapable of resisting the act" constitutes sexual assault. Our task in this article is to identify the kind of sexual harms that are (un)protected by this paragraph and to discuss the boundaries of rape that are set by legal practice. We do so through a systematic analysis of all verdicts on incapacity and sexual assault at appellate court levels through 2019 and 2020. The analysis strengthens our concern for victims' right to equality before the law and for the quality of courts' legal veridiction and interpretation of both law and sexual assault.
根据挪威法律,“与失去知觉或因其他原因无法抵抗行为的人发生性行为”构成性侵犯。本文的任务是确定该段落所保护(或未保护)的性伤害类型,并讨论法律实践设定的强奸界限。我们通过对 2019 年和 2020 年上诉法院所有关于无能力和性侵犯的判决进行系统分析来做到这一点。分析加强了我们对受害者在法律面前平等权利的关注,以及对法院法律真实性和对法律和性侵犯的解释的关注。
