Seongnam Law Office Assistance Case | Client Charged With Stalking, Case Concluded With Non-Prosecution

The client had been booked on a stalking charge and sought help from a Seongnam attorney, hoping to successfully defend against punishment with the office's assistance.

1. The Client's Situation

Seongnam Law Office


The client sought to be presented with a solution through a legal consultation with an attorney and to resolve the matter promptly, and conducted a thorough consultation at the Seongnam office.

How the Client Came to the Seongnam Law Office

The account of the client to seek help is as follows.

The client is a private academy instructor, and the alleged victim is the client's boyfriend.

One day, the client witnessed her boyfriend having an affair with another woman, and the client, who was greatly shocked, asked the alleged victim to explain the situation.

However, her boyfriend told the client that he could no longer continue the relationship and gave notice of a breakup.

The client attempted to contact her former boyfriend approximately 30 times in order to settle a debt matter with him.

The boyfriend reported the client for stalking, and the client determined that professional legal assistance was needed.

Facing a charge of violating the 🔗Act on Punishment of Crime of Stalking, the client came to Daeryun seeking to conclude the case promptly with the assistance of an attorney.

2. The Statutes Relevant to the Case as Explained by the Seongnam Law Office

The client was implicated in a charge of violating the Act on Punishment of Crime of Stalking.

Stalking refers to causing anxiety or fear in the other party, or in that party's cohabitant or family, against the other party's will and without justifiable grounds.

If a stalking charge is established, one may be punished by imprisonment for not more than three years or a fine not exceeding 30 million won, and where a weapon is used, one may be punished by imprisonment for not more than five years or a fine not exceeding 50 million won.

3. Seongnam Law Office Assistance

The Seongnam attorney closely reviewed the circumstances of the case and established an appropriate response, arguing as follows in order to obtain a non-prosecution disposition.


Key Issues

1. Did the client create a sense of fear in the alleged victim?
2. Is there sufficient evidence to prove the client's commission of the offense?

Seongnam Law Office Argument ① Conduct Creating a Sense of Fear

In light of the evidence, it can be seen that the client did not contact the alleged victim one-sidedly.

The client discussed matters such as resolving the financial relationship with the alleged victim and the future of their relationship.

Accordingly, the attorney emphasized that the alleged victim's claim that the client had created a sense of fear was without merit.

Seongnam Law Office Argument ② Insufficient Evidence of the Offense

Even if the client's conduct may have provoked unpleasant feelings in the alleged victim, it is difficult to regard such conduct as sufficient to cause anxiety or fear.

The alleged victim's claim alone cannot establish that the client's conduct constitutes the crime of stalking as a matter of law.

Because the evidence to prove the client's commission of the offense is insufficient, the attorney emphasized that the alleged victim's claim was without merit.

Seongnam Law Office Argument ③ The Alleged Victim's Contact

The alleged victim continued to decline the client's calls while demanding money from the client by message.

The client called in order to find out the specific reason why the alleged victim was demanding money.

The attorney also emphasized that the alleged victim had merely declined the client's calls and had never asked the client not to contact him.

4. The Prosecution's Decision on the Seongnam Law Office's Argument

The prosecution accepted the Seongnam law office's argument and ultimately rendered a non-prosecution decision.

The client, who was able to conclude the case promptly through the non-prosecution decision, conveyed deep thanks.
