Jeonju Law Office | Jeonju Attorney Who Obtained Non-Prosecution for Confinement and Stalking

The circumstances of the case as identified by the Jeonju attorney through a legal consultation with the client are as follows.

The client explained that, while he had been getting along well with his girlfriend, he was suddenly told that she wanted to break up.

Bewildered and unable to understand the reason, the client went to his girlfriend's home.

The client explained that, during their conversation, his emotions intensified, and he held back his girlfriend as she refused to talk and tried to leave the house.

The client's girlfriend reported him for unlawful confinement and stalking, and the matter developed into a criminal investigation.

In this situation, the client came to the Jeonju law office and requested a consultation in order to defend against punishment as much as possible.

The client was under investigation on charges of unlawful confinement and a violation of the Act on Punishment of Crime of Stalking.

First, the offense of unlawful confinement is a crime committed when a person unlawfully confines another and restricts that person's physical freedom.

Unlawful confinement is provided for in Article 276 of the Criminal Act, and if it is established, the offender is subject to imprisonment for up to five years or a fine of up to 7 million won.

In addition, the Act on Punishment of Crime of Stalking (🔗Act on Punishment of Crime of Stalking) is a law that prohibits acts such as repeatedly harassing or threatening another person.

This law provides for punishment of conduct that involves persistently contacting or visiting and harassing a victim against the victim's wishes.

Therefore, if you are involved in a criminal case like the client, rather than responding alone, having an attorney accompany you from the police investigation stage to respond actively to the case can be helpful.

The client visited the home of the victim, his former girlfriend, in order to attempt a conversation amid their conflict, and as his emotions intensified, he briefly held her back so that she could not go out.

On this basis, the client argued that he had no intent to confine the victim and had merely wanted to hear the reason for the breakup.

At the time of the incident, the victim was highly agitated and reported the matter impulsively in an emotionally unstable state.

The attorney argued that this stemmed from an emotional clash between the client and the victim, and that the victim likewise did not want the client to be punished.

The case above is one in which the client, who was reported for unlawful confinement and stalking after a conflict escalated during a conversation with his girlfriend, requested legal assistance from a 🔗Jeonju attorney.

With the assistance of the Jeonju attorney, the client was able to avoid punishment.

As this shows, Daeryun Law Firm operates a 24-hour response system in which an attorney accompanies clients to urgent police investigations and provides systematic assistance across all stages of a case, from gathering case-related evidence to trial defense.
