2. Matters of the Mokpo Law Office's Assistance
The Mokpo attorney, who conducted a thorough consultation with the client at the Mokpo Law Office, argued as follows.
Mokpo Law Office, Denial of the Assault
The Mokpo Law Office argued that the client did not commit any assault.
When the police arrived at the scene after receiving the report, the parties were not engaged in a physical altercation.
In addition, although there was a minor scuffle, the victim told the police that they had no intention of seeking punishment for it.
On this basis, the Mokpo Law Office emphasized that if the client had in fact committed an assault, the victim would not have said they had no intention of seeking punishment.
Mokpo Law Office, the Credibility of the Victim's Statement
The victim stated that they sustained an injury from the client's assault.
However, upon checking the medical certificate, it differed from the area where the client allegedly committed the assault, creating an inconsistency.
On this basis, the Mokpo Law Office argued that the medical certificate alone cannot establish whether an assault actually occurred.
In addition, the in-laws and the client had been on bad terms and had frequent disputes from before.
On this basis, it was also confirmed that the victim had made false statements, such as "the client threatened me without reason," in order to file a complaint against the client.
For these reasons, the Mokpo Law Office argued that the victim's statement lacked credibility.
