3. Assistance Provided by the Tongyeong Law Firm
The Tongyeong law firm established a careful strategy to obtain a decision of no measure in the client's case, and argued the following.
Tongyeong Law Firm Argument No. 1: Severity
The offending student regarded the client as weak, forced his will upon the client, and committed acts of violence.
Deliberately stepping hard on the client's foot and insulting the client with abusive language constitutes a serious act of violence.
The firm therefore emphasized that it was reasonable to regard the severity of this case as very high.
Tongyeong Law Firm Argument No. 2: Persistence
The offending student inflicted verbal and physical violence on the client continuously for about two months.
On at least five occasions, the offending student sought out the client and shook the client by the hair.
The firm emphasized that the offending student's acts of violence were not isolated but amounted to highly persistent conduct.
Tongyeong Law Firm Argument No. 3: Intent
The offending student, intending to torment the client, sought to upset the client, and whenever his anger was not appeased, he sought out the client and committed acts of violence.
The firm emphasized that the offending student's conduct was carried out with the purpose of inflicting psychological and physical harm on the client, and could not be regarded as a mere joke or an impulsive act.
4. The School Violence Committee's Decision on the Tongyeong Law Firm's Arguments
Accepting the Tongyeong law firm's arguments, the School Violence Countermeasures Deliberation Committee issued a decision of 'no measure' for the client, and measures for the offending student including a prohibition of contact, threats, and retaliation, and 10 hours of school service.
The client expressed deep gratitude to the Tongyeong law firm.
