The Client Who Came Through a Gwangju Attorney Recommendation
This is the situation of the client who came through a Gwangju attorney recommendation.
On the day of the incident, the client was under mental pressure from an excessive workload at work and conflicts in personal relationships.
To relieve this stress and take a brief rest, the client headed to a park on the outskirts of town.
Because the park was quiet and secluded, the client was watching a movie in the car and then engaged in an act of masturbation.
However, a passerby witnessed this and immediately reported it to the police.
The client was ultimately subjected to a police investigation and was investigated on a charge of public indecency.
The Gwangju attorney who took on this case decided to develop a strategy to avoid punishment where possible, taking into account that the client was a public official.
The Gwangju attorney thoroughly analyzed the client's situation and prepared an effective defense and a plan for assistance.
The Statutes Relevant to the Case as Explained by a Gwangju Attorney

an act that, in order to satisfy one's own sexual desire, causes sexual displeasure by performing, in a public place used by an unspecified number of people, conduct that can arouse sexual desire or provoke excitement.
If a charge of public indecency is recognized, the offender may be punished by imprisonment for not more than one year or a fine not exceeding 5 million won.
