1. The story of a client at risk of punishment for violating the Special Price Act

This is the story of a client who was at risk of punishment for violating the special price law.
In the process of ending a relationship with a former partner, the client experienced ongoing conflict over financial issues.
During the dating period, various reasons such as living expensesWe had helped the other person with their financial burden on several occasions, but as the relationship grew apart, the conflict surrounding money issues and demands for repayment gradually grew.
Afterwards, the other party claimed that the client demanded repayment of money while moving the vehicle, engaged in dangerous behavior that could cause harm to his or her body, and continued to repeatedly send threatening messages and messages that created anxiety.
In particular, the other party claimed that the client had made pressureful contact not only to himself but also to his family, and filed a complaint on several criminal charges, including charges of violating the Aggravated Punishment Act for Specific Crimes.
During the investigation, the main issue was whether the acts that occurred while driving the vehicle were at the level of a simple fight or an act that actually caused driving danger, and accordingly, it was expected that the Aggravated Punishment Act for Specific Crimes would be applied.
Additionally, the other party requested that the client be investigated for contact made in the process of requesting money return.
Our client, who was suddenly under police investigation as a suspect in multiple criminal cases, including charges of violating the Special Price Act, came to Daeryun Law Firm to decide on a response.
2. Assistance strategy for responding to special price law violation cases
In this case, where suspicions of violation of the Special Price Act were raised, the criminal lawyerA response strategy that focuses on whether the actions that occurred while moving the vehicle are actually acts subject to aggravated punishment under the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Crimes and the circumstances of the threatening and threatening communication claimed by the other party.has been prepared.
In particular, in this case, both the behavior during the operation of the vehicle and the contents of subsequent contact were problematic, and the possibility of application of the Aggravated Punishment Act for Specific Crimes was expected.The process of objectively organizing the situation and actual conversation flow at the time is important.I did it.
Accordingly, the criminal lawyerAnalysis of digital data, review of legal principles related to violation of special price law, response to police investigationWe have established a client defense strategy focusing on the following.
Analysis of situation and risk during vehicle movement using digital forensics
In this case, the key issue was whether the dangerous behavior while moving the vehicle claimed by the other party actually constituted a violation of the Special Price Act.
The other party is the clientClaimed that he had acted in a manner that could cause harm by demanding money repayment while moving the vehicle.I was doing it.
Accordingly, the criminal lawyer submitted theWe comprehensively review text messages, SNS conversation history, and call records, and collaborate with our law firm's Digital Forensics Center to closely analyze the circumstances at the time of the incident.I did it.
As a result, there is a difference between the dangerous situation claimed by the other party and the actual situation.There were some differences, and there were parts where it was difficult to conclude that there was an immediate risk of accident or intention to cause direct harm during the actual vehicle operation process.was able to confirm.
In addition, we organized the conversation flow and actions during the vehicle movement in chronological order, and prepared a response strategy focusing on the fact that the actual incident cannot be viewed as a one-sided threat situation as claimed by the other party.
Review of objective data regarding claims of threatening contact
The other party was expanding criminal proceedings against our client, claiming that it was repeated threatening behavior, not only for his actions while moving the vehicle, but also for subsequent contacts.
Furthermore, the client claimed that he had continuously sent pressuring contacts and messages that created anxiety to him and his family.
Accordingly, the criminal lawyer based on the statements and materials submitted by the other partyObjectively analyze the actual number of contacts, call connection status, message content, etc.I did it.
As a result, although there were circumstances in which some of the contacts were made in relation to the issue of money return, it was not at the same level as the other party's claim.The intention to cause direct harm or the circumstances causing continued fear were not clearly confirmed in the objective data.
In addition, the response logic was structured around the fact that there were differences between the threatening messages sent to the family and the actual data, and we helped to contest the credibility of the overall accusation.
Preliminary summary of police investigation response and statement directions
In criminal cases, the direction and outcome of the investigation can vary depending on the initial statement, so police investigation response is very important.
In addition, as this incident involved issues related to the circumstances at the time the vehicle was moved and the circumstances of subsequent contact, it was necessary to organize the entire incident flow so that only some expressions or actions were not interpreted separately.
Criminal lawyer Daeryun consults with the client several times before the investigation.Organize the circumstances in which financial problems occurred, the circumstances at the time of vehicle movement, and actual contact details in chronological order.I did it.
In addition, we systematically prepared expected questions and answers by carefully reviewing the other party's claims for factual inaccuracies and misleading expressions.
Based on this information, we were present during the police investigation to correct any undue pressure or direction of statements and review the suspect's interrogation report.
We helped the client maintain a consistent statement based on the facts rather than reacting emotionally during the investigation process, and led the investigative agency to review the circumstances of the case more comprehensively.
3. As a result of assisting in violation of the Special Price Act, non-transportation was led.
Daeryun analyzed the situation at the time of vehicle movement and the actual contact details based on objective data such as the client's statement, text and call history, and SNS conversation data.
The client's actionsIt is difficult to conclude that it was a risky act intended to cause actual harm as claimed by the other party, and we responded proactively, focusing on the fact that the subsequent contact was also in part related to the issue of money return and the process of resolving the relationship.I did it.
Additionally, the driver assault caseIt is also clarified that it is not established solely through arguments or emotional actions, but that the decision must be made by comprehensively considering the actual possibility of driving risk and the degree of the action.I did it.
In addition, after reviewing the repeated threatening contacts and pressuring contacts with family members claimed by the other party based on objective data and actual conversation flows, we actively argued that it is difficult to view them as intent to cause direct harm or to cause continued fear.
As a result, the investigative agencyIt was decided not to forward all crimes claimed by the other party, such as violation of the Aggravated Punishment Act for Specific Crimes and threats.I took it down.
Case involving charges of violation of the Aggravated Punishment Act for Specific Crimes and intimidation
This case involved issues related to the Aggravated Punishment Act for Specific Crimes (Assault on Drivers) and allegations of intimidation in the course of a financial conflict that occurred after the end of a romantic relationship.
especiallyThe other party filed a criminal complaint, claiming that the client engaged in dangerous behavior that could cause harm while moving the vehicle, and continued to send repeated threatening and pressurizing messages thereafter.I did it.
During the investigation process, it was confirmed that the main issue was whether the behavior that occurred while driving the vehicle was at the level of a simple emotional conflict or whether it was an act that could cause actual driving danger.
The punishment levels for each related charge are as follows.
Article 5-10 of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Crimes (Aggravated Punishment for Assault, etc. on Drivers of Driving Cars)
② If a person commits the crime of paragraph 1,If a person causes injury, he or she will be punished by imprisonment for a limited period of three years or more, and if he or she causes death, he or she will be punished by imprisonment for life or more than five years.Punishment.
Criminal Law Article 283 (Intimidation)
In this case as well, the other party claimed that the client's actions during contact and vehicle movement constituted threatening behavior, but after comprehensively reviewing the actual flow of conversation, the situation at the time, and objective data, there was room for dispute as to whether the charges were established.
In this way, even if an action occurred during a financial issue or relationship conflict, it can escalate into several criminal cases depending on the situation, so it is important to systematically organize the facts and objective data from the beginning and confirm the direction of response.
4. How to respond when charges of violation of the Special Price Act are applied
Among violations of the Special Price Act, assaults and threats against drivers of vehicles in operation are likely to be punished more severely than general assaults and threats.
Actions that occur while the vehicle is movingEven if an actual accident has not occurred, if the risk of driving is recognized, an investigation may be conducted on charges of violation of the Special Price Act.
Because a light argument or accidental action does not immediately lead to a charge being recognized, it is necessary to objectively organize and respond to the situation at the time, the possibility of actual danger occurring, and the course of action.
Matters considered important
In cases of violation of special laws related to driver assault, the key factors to be considered are whether there was a possibility of danger occurring during actual driving and the extent of the act.
Even if it is the same actionLegal judgments may vary depending on the vehicle's driving condition, circumstances at the time, and actions taken.
Investigative agencies generally comprehensively consider the following factors to determine whether charges are warranted.
review elements | Key confirmation details |
|---|---|
| Whether it was actually in operation |
| Possibility of interference and harm to driver operation |
| Accident risk and surrounding conditions |
| Whether it is an accidental situation or an ongoing act |
| Dialogue flow and on-site situation |
| Whether there is evidence such as texts, calls, videos, etc. |
| Whether the statements of the parties and third parties are consistent |
If only some scenes or expressions are interpreted separately, there is a possibility that the situation may be judged differently from the actual situation, so it is important to organize the entire flow of the event in detail.
Initial response direction is important
If you treat an incident of assault or intimidation against a driving car driver as a simple argument and respond complacently, there is a possibility that it may lead to heavier criminal liability than expected.
If only some scenes or statements are emphasized, actions that occur while the vehicle is moving may be interpreted as a dangerous act differently from the actual intention.
For this reason, in the initial investigation stage,The process of organizing the situation, conversation flow, and action sequence at the time of vehicle operation in detail based on objective data.This is important.
Daeryun, the 9th largest law firm in Korea (based on 25 years of VAT reporting to the National Tax Service), provides customized legal services for each case by systematically analyzing the situation at the time of vehicle movement and the differences between the other party's claims and objective data from the initial consultation stage of the case.
Also, if necessaryIn collaboration with the Digital Forensics Center, we analyze deleted data and conversation flows, and systematically assist in the direction of investigation response to prevent adverse statements or misunderstandings during the police investigation process.I'm doing it.
