Public officials in charge of conspiring to commit joint crimes from applying for projects for the purpose of illegally receiving subsidies from farmers, inspected some workplaces due to a tight project period, completed a full investigation, and sent them to the prosecution despite proactive administration... Although there was a risk of retirement and disciplinary action, prosecution was suspended. In the process of carrying out a support project to encourage farmers to produce crops in a local government, it was revealed that residents received subsidies illegally by deceiving public officials. Despite active administration for the benefit of residents, the government officials in charge were sent to the prosecution due to the farmers' misconduct. According to the incident, when the subsidy support project was passed, an organization voluntarily formed by all farmers growing specific crops became a subsidy recipient. It was confirmed. Afterwards, as the project was changed at the request of residents, the target and method of payment were changed, and the subsidy provider was changed from a farmer organization to an individual business. Mr. A, the public official in charge of the support project, was faced with the task of reviewing the appropriateness of subsidy payments to a number of individual businesses as progress within the project period was being rushed. As there was insufficient time for on-site inspection, some businesses were randomly selected and inspected, and even in cases where visits were not possible, data such as photo registers were collected. After review, it was determined that there was no problem and the subsidy was paid. However, it was confirmed that some of the business sites that were not visited had received subsidies through fraudulent methods. In particular, it was revealed that farmers who were directly involved in the problem of false applications even applied as initial subsidy business operators, and it was revealed that they had plotted an organized crime from the application stage. The farmers who plotted a joint crime submitted false applications for the purpose of deceiving the local government agricultural technology center, including Mr. A, to illegally receive subsidies. However, The police determined that Mr. A had participated in the illegal supply and demand from farmers even after knowing this, and sent the case to the prosecution on charges such as writing false official documents. If Mr. A was sentenced to probation for charges such as writing false official documents, there was a high possibility that he would be subject to dismissal, and if he was fined, would be subject to disciplinary action and be disadvantaged in lifetime promotions. Fortunately, Mr. A's legal representative said that this was an incident caused by the intentionality of the farmers who participated in the project along with the above facts, and that there was no bribe or We proved that there was no solicitation. As a result of revealing whether there was an improper solicitation or bribery, and whether we were aware of the illegal receipt of subsidies, we were fortunate to conclude the pre-trial case with a suspended indictment. Daeryun Law Firm (Yuhan), which handled the case, said, “Legally, Mr. A’s intent is denied in relation to the crime of writing false official documents, etc. The essence of this case is that each business originated from the crime of deceiving Mr. A and receiving illegal payments. “This is the result of emphasizing that it is impossible to uncover all the wrongdoing in an objective situation, and that this is the first time this type of business has been conducted,” he explained.   [View full article] - Residents collude to illegally receive subsidies... A public official almost got punished for writing false official documents.

Completion of legal review related to the April 10 general election... Providing one-stop assistance for differentiated election preparation, including analysis of public opinion trends, National Election Commission surveys, investigations, trials, etc. Daeryun Law Firm announced on the 21st that it has launched an election response team ahead of the 22nd general election of the National Assembly on April 10. A Daeryun official explained on the day, "As election violence and war of nerves are heating up, Daeryun's election response team plans to analyze pledges and prevent legal disputes." Investigation and trial The election response team is comprised of attorneys from all civil service departments who are skilled in the investigation and trial of cases that violate the Public Official Election Act. Representative Kim Kuk-il (24th Judicial Research and Training Institute), a former head of the Prosecutor's Office who has handled many criminal cases against politicians, and Attorney Son Soon-hyuk (18th class), who is skilled in responding to election law violation cases, served as team leaders. Representative Kim is serving as vice president of the National Citizens' Movement Coalition for Reporting Corruption in Public Officials. He has handled many criminal cases against influential politicians. Attorney Son handled cases such as violation of election law in Haeundae and Gijang National Assembly by-elections, violation of election law by Gijang-gun mayor, Haeundae-gu mayor, and Geumjeong-gu mayor candidate. Currently residing at the Daeryun regional office, we plan to provide prompt service to customers outside of the metropolitan area. Attorneys Jin-won Kim (21st class), Chang-soo Na (31st class), Bong-ha Seo (31st class), and Hyeong-yoon Kang (42nd class) are former attorneys who have handled election law violation cases involving numerous presidential candidates, members of the National Assembly, and local government heads, and will respond from the investigative stage. In particular, Attorney Na is also working as an external lecturer in the field of public official crimes at the Audit Training Institute, and Attorney Kang was evaluated as an expert in public investigation during his time as a prosecutor. In addition, attorneys who have worked for a long time in the Public Security Department of the Prosecutors' Office and lawyers with experience as legal advisors to local election commissions have joined, and it is evaluated that they have formed an organization suitable for election-related advice and response to violations of the public official election law. CEO Kuk-il Kim said, "It is composed of experts with practical experience related to election law violations in the prosecution and courts. “We have become the optimal response team,” he explained. “We are capable of comprehensive and rapid response in all stages, from election preparations to the National Election Commission investigation, investigation, and trial.” ■ The Daeryun Election Response Team, which provides one-stop legal services linked to the work of specialized groups, completed the review of laws and precedents related to the April 10 general election, and differentiated itself by conducting analysis of public opinion trends by utilizing the capabilities and technologies possessed by the evidence investigation and digital forensics group. The election response team differentiated itself. We plan to provide one-stop legal services in all areas, from response to election preparation and election campaign stages to consultation, investigation, and trial assistance. In particular, while expanding and reorganizing, we will also proceed with organic business linkage with the detective group and investigation response team, which are comprised of many talented people. This is to respond to the National Election Commission investigation, prosecution and police investigation, and illegal acts by opposing candidates due to the spread of false facts, fake news, and black propaganda. According to the prosecution, as of the 29th of last month, a total of 113 people were booked for election offenses related to the 22nd general election, 7 of them were indicted, and 85 are under investigation. Among the types of election crimes, black propaganda was the most common with 47 cases (41.6%), followed by bribery. Election crimes and illegal acts by public officials and organizations followed with 24 and 8 cases, respectively. Four cases of election violence and obstruction were recorded. The detective group and its investigative response team have extensive experience in cases such as the spread of false facts, bribery, and perjury, so they will be actively involved in the initial response in the prosecution and police investigation. Representative Kim said, "Cases of election law violations are on the rise. There are many cases of people being indicted for election law violations even if they win the general election." He added, "We have to look at it differently from regular criminal cases. The statute of limitations for prosecution is also 6 months. “It is short, so a quick response to the investigation or investigation is necessary,” he said. As legal issues related to elections, such as general elections and local elections, continue to arise, Daeryun plans to maintain a team to be able to respond at all times.  [View full article] - Daeryun Law Firm launches election response team...

There is no standard for judging individual resignation or collective resignation... Possibility of proving collective action is not easy. While the public resignation of an intern at a local hospital ignited a movement among fellow doctors who remain cautious, the government threatened that in the current situation, individual resignations could also be viewed as group resignations. However, the legal community pointed out that it is a kind of scare to prevent individual resignations, saying that it is virtually impossible to regard individual resignations as group resignations unless clear evidence of collusion is presented. Park Min-soo, Second Vice Minister of Health and Welfare, said At the ‘Doctors’ Collective Action Central Accident Control Center’ briefing held at the Seoul Government Complex on the 14th, he said, “Any reason for a resignation letter that deviates from the usual is a sign of protest against government policy. Even if it is individual, if you have discussed it with colleagues in advance, it can be viewed as a collective resignation letter.” He continued, “When receiving a resignation letter from an individual hospital, the reasons, etc. are carefully examined through consultation, and if it is not an individual reason, the government issues a group resignation letter.” “We must comply with the order banning the acceptance of resignation letters,” he said, adding, “We are checking the status of each individual hospital and major hospitals.” Vice Minister Park’s remarks came as some residents have recently shown individual moves to resign under government pressure. The previous day, an intern at Daejeon St. Mary’s Hospital publicly announced his intention to resign on YouTube, saying, “I am resigning for personal reasons.” In relation to this, lawyer Daeryun C of the law firm said, “If there is no evidence of prior collusion, it is impossible to punish individual resignations alone,” he said. He continued, “The individual resignations submitted by medical residents to each hospital cannot be considered collective resignations. When individual resignations occur in succession, there is no standard as to how many individual resignations will be considered individual resignations and from what point onwards, it will be considered collective resignation.” He responded to the government’s position to determine the reason for resignation, saying, “Resignations are done for personal conscience or individual reasons, but this is not lumped together.” “It is also virtually impossible to judge it as a group resignation,” he said. However, if there is evidence or circumstances of collusion by medical groups or hospitals, it could become a problem. Attorney C said, “If there is evidence of collusion at medical resident groups or hospital meetings, such as ‘let’s resign individually and make it look like a group action,’ there is room for it to be considered a collective action.” In response to the argument that the government may regard residents’ failure to renew their contracts as a collective action, attorney C said, Extension must follow the principle of freedom of contract between the hospital and its affiliated doctors. It is questionable whether the government can prove that failure to extend individual contracts is a collective action if there is no evidence of collusion,” he pointed out. He added, “I think it is a threat made out of misfortune, as it is difficult for the government to prevent residents if they individually resign or do not renew their contracts.”  [View full article] - Legal world: “Individual resignation without collusion cannot be punished”

Daeryun Kim Kuk-il The CEO said, "We have decided to expand our expert organization for preemptive and comprehensive response to investigative agencies not only for general criminal cases but also for urgent issues such as general elections and major disasters. We have strengthened our expertise and strengthened our internal structure with the help of a large number of experts, and now it is time to move forward further.

Worker claims unfair dismissal and illegal actions, saying he withdrew his resignation letter before accepting it. Court holds company accountable for intentionally hindering industrial accident approval. “It is difficult to acknowledge the worker’s claim.” 3-year legal battle concluded, application for unfair dismissal relief, backed by dismissal of unfair dismissal sanctions judgment cancellation [Sports Seoul | Reporter Kim Su-ji] There was a case where all claims for industrial accident damages filed against the company by a worker claiming an industrial accident due to unfair dismissal were dismissed. The Seoul Southern District Court ruled that all claims of worker A would be dismissed in a lawsuit against Company B and its executives and employees seeking compensation for damages due to illegal acts such as violation of the Labor Standards Act and violation of the duty of care under the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Mr. A eventually submitted a letter of resignation upon receiving notice from the company that it had decided to abolish the department he was in at the time. He later withdrew it before it was accepted, but the company claimed that it did not accept it and claimed 50 million won in damages against key executives and employees and the corporation. The main purpose of the claim is that an industrial accident occurred during the retirement process due to illegal acts and unfair work instructions, and Company B and its executives and employees intentionally interfered with delaying the approval of the industrial accident by denying the occurrence of the industrial accident. As a result, the company suffered economic loss and mental damage, and the company is liable for damages exceeding the value of industrial insurance benefits. Company B and its employees say it is unfair. In the plaintiff's lawsuit and criminal complaint, which lasted for more than three years, the facts were sufficiently argued and argued, and rather, he complained that he had suffered a lot of pain and property damage due to Mr. A's actions. According to Company B's claim, Mr. A submitted his resignation voluntarily and claimed that there was no act of deception or coercion in this process. The three-year legal battle between Mr. A and Company B ended with the court in favor of Company B. The court explained, “It is difficult to admit that an illegal act like the plaintiff’s claim was committed, and industrial accident compensation, which has the nature of a social security system that provides compensation as prescribed by law regardless of the intention or negligence of the employer, etc., and liability for damages based on the principle of negligence are completely different in nature.” Previously, the Local Labor Relations Commission ruled to dismiss Mr. A's application for relief, saying that the employment relationship was terminated by legally accepting the resignation letter in this case. When the retrial was dismissed, an unfair dismissal lawsuit was filed seeking cancellation of the unfair dismissal sanctions judgment, but the court ruled that the plaintiff lost. Daeryun Corporate Legal Group, Law Firm (Limited), which represented Company B and its employees, said, “We found that there was no basis for acknowledging the plaintiff’s claim by proving that the resignation was caused by the worker’s gross negligence or arbitrariness.” “The lawsuit continued for a long time even though there were no legal or procedural defects or negligence on the part of the company. Cases related to such industrial accidents and unfair dismissals are continuing, and a clear causal relationship must be proven and a comprehensive judgment must be made.” “It is necessary,” he said.   [View full article] - Court dismisses all claims for industrial accidents and damages by workers who belatedly rescinded their resignation... 3-year lawsuit concluded

Conflict over refund policy that does not allow cancellation after 10 minutes... Filed lawsuit for refund of accommodation fee - Yanolja decided to temporarily seize bond for lease deposit [Sports Seoul | Reporter Kim Su-ji] While the accommodation reservation platform Yanolja's policy of not being able to cancel same-day reservations has spread into a lawsuit claiming refund of accommodation fees, a decision to provisionally seize Yanolja has been made, drawing attention to future lawsuits on the merits. Previously, a conflict arose between Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) and Yanolja over the accommodation fee refund policy. Daeryun reserved a special product through the Yanolja app, and immediately after making the reservation, he requested cancellation due to a change in schedule. However, Yanolja responded that a refund was not possible on the grounds that the cancellation was not made within ‘10 minutes’, and ultimately maintained its position of no refund, leading to a conflict. Accordingly, Daeryun is known to have filed a lawsuit to receive a refund of the lodging fee through legal procedures. Daeryun is known to have argued that the defendant Yanolja's refund policy on the lodging contract in this case is invalid for violating the Electronic Commerce Act, and that since the intention to withdraw the subscription was expressed within a legal period, the subscription was naturally withdrawn, so Yanolja should refund the lodging fee. Daeryun's lawyer said, "Based on legal principles and precedents, Yanolja says that refunds are not possible after '10 minutes'." “Since the refund terms and conditions are invalid, Yanolja received the payment for the accommodation contract without any legal cause, and therefore Yanolja has an obligation to return the payment for the accommodation contract in this case and the related delay damages as unjust enrichment.” The application for provisional seizure of claims was accepted. Provisional seizure is when a creditor seizes the debtor's assets in advance so that they can compulsorily execute the debtor's assets in the future, and the general interpretation in the legal community is that a decision on provisional seizure is made only when the creditor's claims are explained to the court. Daeryun's lawyer said, "Considering all consumers, it is estimated that the damage caused by Yanolja's policy will be significant. We are also making every effort to prepare for the lawsuit on the merits to prevent further damage to consumers. “Through this lawsuit, we will sound the alarm on Yanolja’s actions of excessively restricting consumers’ right to cancel,” he said, drawing attention to the lawsuit on the merits.  [View full article] Sports Seoul - ‘Cancellation is not possible after 10 minutes’ Decision to provisionally seize bond on accommodation app… Main lawsuit Nool Bridge Economy - Decision to provisionally seize bonds against Yanolja, an accommodation app that claimed ‘cancellation is not possible after 10 minutes’… Main lawsuit Nool Business Korea - Decision to temporarily seize bonds on lodging app...
