Uijeongbu Criminal Litigation Attorney Assistance | A Minor Fine for Interference With Business Through the Uijeongbu Attorney

The circumstances of the case brought to the Uijeongbu criminal litigation attorney are as follows.

The client, who lives in a house, one day noticed that a CCTV camera had been installed facing the front of their home.

The client therefore contacted the company that had installed the CCTV camera and requested several times that the company turn the lens away or remove the camera.

The company replied that it understood, but it took no particular action thereafter.

The client then placed a black plastic bag over the camera that was infringing on their privacy, and an employee of the company who discovered this filed a criminal complaint, alleging that the client had interfered with their business.

Not having realized that their conduct was a criminal act, the client was quite flustered and requested a consultation from the Uijeongbu criminal litigation attorney.

🔗Interference with Business is a crime established where a person spreads false facts or interferes with another's business by deceptive or coercive means.

In the case of the Uijeongbu criminal litigation attorney's client, the client had been accused of interfering with another's business by coercive means.

Coercive force refers to any power that suppresses or confuses a person's will or freedom, and such force may be tangible, such as assault and intimidation, or intangible, such as social or economic status or authority.

For the crime of interference with business to be established, the following elements must be satisfied.

The crime of interference with business is punished strictly because it interferes with the normal performance of business by an individual or a company.

When the crime of interference with business is recognized, the offender may, under the Criminal Act, be subject to imprisonment for not more than five years or a fine of fifteen million won.

The client requested the victim company on several occasions to remove the CCTV that infringed on the client's privacy or to turn the camera lens in another direction.

Despite this, the victim company took no particular measures.

On this basis, the Uijeongbu criminal litigation attorney argued that the client came to commit the offense at issue.

The client neither damaged the CCTV nor turned it toward another location.

On this basis, the Uijeongbu criminal litigation attorney emphasized that, while the client acknowledges the facts stated in the indictment, it is highly ambiguous whether that conduct constitutes interference with business.

Accordingly, the attorney requested that mitigating circumstances be taken into account even if guilt is found.

In this case, the client, who was involved in a charge of interference with business, visited the 🔗Uijeongbu Office of Daeryun LLC to respond to the criminal proceedings.

The client faced a fine of up to 15 million won or imprisonment of up to five years.

With the assistance of the Uijeongbu criminal litigation attorney, the matter was concluded with a minor fine.

Daeryun LLC analyzes comparable precedents, reviews available grounds for mitigation, and establishes a systematic response strategy for each client facing criminal litigation.
