[Assistance Provided Through the Jinju Attorney Consultation] A Client Who Received the Jinju Attorney Consultation Was Given a Suspended Sentence for Special Obstruction of Official Duties

This is the client's case as learned through the Jinju Attorney Consultation.

The client was resting at a pension with family over the weekend.

While resting, the client heard inter-floor noise from the floor above.

The client, who had ordinarily been suffering from inter-floor noise, became angry because the inter-floor noise was also severe at the pension to which the client had gone to rest, and shouted in protest at the person on the floor above.

The client then approached the police who arrived at the scene and threatened them while holding a knife.

Out of anger, the client engaged in conduct that should never be done, and, reflecting on the client's own conduct, came to Daeryun's Jinju Attorney Consultation center.

These are the statutes related to the crime of special obstruction of official duties explained at the Jinju Attorney Consultation.

Article 136 (Obstruction of Official Duties)

Criminal Act Article 137

Criminal Act Article 144 (Special Obstruction of Official Duties)

After the Jinju Attorney Consultation, the attorney at Daeryun emphasized the client's attitude of remorse.

The client blames the client's own self and regrets having committed a serious wrong through reckless conduct and the fact that the victims are suffering.

It was emphasized that the client is resolved not to repeat the same wrong.

After the Jinju Attorney Consultation, the attorney at Daeryun emphasized the client's difficult family circumstances.

The client had been supporting and living together with the client's mother, but as the client was detained due to this unexpected case, the client's mother now lives alone and spends each day in anxiety.

It was argued that, if the client were to receive a sentence of imprisonment as a result of this case, the mother would be left alone in difficult economic circumstances and would be in a position where she could hardly bear the client's absence.

After the Jinju Attorney Consultation, the attorney at Daeryun submitted letters of appeal from the client's acquaintances.

It was argued that not only the client's family but also coworkers and acquaintances had written letters of appeal seeking leniency for the client.
