Suncheon Law Firm Representation in Filing a Complaint Case | Suncheon Law Firm Represents an Indecent Act by Compulsion Victim in Filing a Complaint, Having the Perpetrator Sentenced to a Heavy Fine

The client who visited the Suncheon law firm had suffered an indecent act by compulsion by a superior at the same company.

The client, an entry-level worker, had taken a job at a new company and was working there.

The client’s superior approached the client, who was sitting in a chair resting, and stroked her thigh dozens of times.

He also committed indecent acts such as pulling her hand while saying her nails were pretty and staring at her chest.

As a result, the client suffered severe stress and wished to file a criminal complaint.

The Suncheon law firm took up representation in filing the complaint.

The Suncheon law firm explained the statutes relating to the 🔗crime of forcible indecent act.

▶ Criminal Act Article 298 (Indecent Act by Compulsion)

A person who commits an indecent act against another through violence or intimidation shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 10 years or a fine not exceeding 15 million won.

If, rather than violence or intimidation, a person commits an indecent act against another by taking advantage of a state of loss of consciousness or inability to resist, the charge of quasi-indecent act by compulsion applies.

▶ Criminal Act Article 299 (Quasi-Rape, Quasi-Indecent Act by Compulsion)

A person who has sexual intercourse with or commits an indecent act against another by taking advantage of the other’s state of loss of consciousness or inability to resist shall be governed by Articles 297, 297-2, and 298.

▶ Article 300 (Attempts)
Attempts of the crimes under Articles 297, 297-2, 298, and 299 shall be punished.

*As circumstances may vary from individual to individual, if you would like to know the details, please apply for an 🔗attorney legal consultation.

The Suncheon law firm proved the fact of the indecent act committed by the workplace superior who had committed the indecent act by compulsion against the client.

The workplace superior stroked and touched the client’s thigh several times.

This is conduct that causes displeasure and sexual humiliation to the victim, and the crime of an indecent act is committed.

Because such conduct by the workplace superior plainly amounts to an indecent act by compulsion, the Suncheon law firm prepared a complaint demanding severe punishment.

The Suncheon law firm argued that, after suffering the indecent act by compulsion, the client was experiencing severe stress.

The client, an entry-level worker, had been diligently building a working life at her first job.

However, she suffered an indecent act by compulsion and, fearing secondary harm, conveyed her mental suffering.

The Suncheon law firm requested severe punishment of the workplace superior who had harmed the client.

The client who came to the Suncheon law firm had been subjected to an indecent act by compulsion by a workplace superior and wished to file a complaint.

In response, the Suncheon law firm of Daeryun proceeded with the complaint.

As a result, the court imposed a fine on the defendant.

In sexual offense cases, Daeryun provides personal protection and anonymity, maintains confidentiality from those around the client, and, when retained as a representative, handles settlement negotiations with the offender, represents the client in filing objections to investigative procedures, and advises on the drafting of documents.
