Decent from Germany and formed in the early of 20 th, the theory of Anticipated possibility in criminal law was advocated in Germany, Japan and other countries and areas of continental law system. The theory of anticipated possibility, especially the circs of anticipated possibility which beyond law, faded out with the development of economy and the perfection of legal system. As for this theory may provide reasonable explanations to some articles of criminal laws abroad, the value of anticipated possibility theory cannot be denied.The four-element constitution of crime system of China left no space for the theory of anticipated possibility. The academics also ignored the theory for a long time. However, in recent years, with the communications between the criminal law academics, the superiority of three-class constitution of crime system has been recognized. Academics stat to believe that the theory of anticipated possibility shall be praised, while others might still deny it. Here comes the questions: Is it necessary for our country to adopt the theory of anticipated possibility?

Meanwhile, when the anticipated possibility is in a low level, it should recognized as the cause of mitigating responsibility. The criterion for judgement of anticipated possibility supposed to beThe sixth part is the aim of this article. This part mainly discusses the adoption of the anticipated possibility theory, from which the legislation and juridical practice may benefit a lot. In legislation, the behavior of obstruction of justice of relatives of the suspects should be identified as the cause of mitigating responsibility. In jurisdiction, the application of anticipated possibility theory should be strictly limited, which means it should be applied in strict circumstances.
