Daeryun of law firm (Lihan), who was accused of damaging property after putting up a flyer in an elevator, took on the defense of Student A, “Revealing his true face in handling the case mechanically.”As the story of a middle school girl who was sent to the prosecution after taking down a flyer attached to an apartment elevator became known, protests from citizens are pouring in, the middle school girl is responding to the investigative stage with the help of a large law firm. According to legal officials, Daeryun Law Firm (Liuhan) was recently confirmed to have submitted a report on the appointment of a lawyer to the Dongbu Police Station in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province, at the request of Student A. In particular, this case has been reported through the media. It is noteworthy that Daeryun Law Firm (Yuhan) was the first to offer a helping hand. Student A is accused of property damage for ripping off a flyer attached to the elevator mirror of an apartment in Yongin, Gyeonggi-do, where he lives, last May. The flyer was written by a residents' self-governing organization in the apartment, and was an unauthorized post that did not have the stamp of the management office. At the time, Student A was known to have removed the flyer without any intention when it blocked his view while looking in the mirror in the elevator. However, the police charged Student A with property damage and forwarded the case to the prosecution. As the basis for the indictment, the police cited a 2022 Pyeongtaek branch precedent that states that in order to legally remove a post without the consent of the management entity, you must request voluntary removal from the person who posted it or file a civil suit for compulsory execution. Student A's parents raised their objections through Kookmin Shinmun High School and the media, and when this incident became known, complaints poured in on the website of the East Police Station in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province, pointing out excessive investigation. Even the police chief responded and expressed his intention to apologize, but the public criticism has not subsided. As the controversy continued, the Gyeonggi Southern Police Agency, a superior agency of the Yongin Eastern Police Station, decided to conduct a supplementary investigation and received the case back from the prosecution. Attorney Kim Da-eun of Daeryun Law Firm, who represented Student A, said, “I had no choice but to be angry after hearing about Student A’s case through the media.” In addition, he said, “This case is an example that shows the true face of a police investigation that handled the case mechanically without specific validity,” and pointed out, “Even if the police who started the reinvestigation decide not to forward the case, this is only a stopgap measure to calm the situation.” Attorney Kim Da-eun said, “Currently, Ms. He added, “Continued interest from society and sincere self-reflection from the case handling agency are likely to be needed.” [View full article] Law Leader - A middle school girl who was sent to the prosecution for taking out a leaflet...

Daeryun expects to develop a medical litigation group by sharing various field experiences. Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) announced on the 13th that it signed an MOU (business agreement) with the Jeju Provincial Association of the Korean Association of Medical Technicians (hereinafter referred to as the Jeju Medical Technician Association). The MOU signing ceremony held at Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) Jeju office on the 12th was attended by Daeryun Law Firm (Limited) CEO Kim Kuk-il, attorney Ko Seung-seok, Jeju Medical Association President Kim Chang-taek, and Jeju Halla University professor Jeong Mu-sang.

Kim Chang-taek, CEO of the Jeju American Medical Association, said, “Legal advice is very important in the medical field because victims often file lawsuits against individual medical technicians rather than hospitals.” He added, “This agreement will be a great help in protecting the rights and interests of medical technicians.” Kim Kuk-il, CEO of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), said, “We will seek help in medical advice through continued cooperation with the Jeju American Medical Association.” He added, “The two organizations will join forces to ensure the health of the local community.” “We will strive to have a positive impact on development,” he said.

After recruiting credit delinquents through internet advertisements, they conspired to commit 'durable goods' crimes. They immediately disposed of the free gifts provided after signing up for mutual aid and 'cashed them out.' Among the criminal gang members who committed a 'home appliance rental fraud' worth 1.3 billion won by taking advantage of credit delinquent people who were unable to get loans from banks, a ruling was made to sentence the main offender to prison and the accessory offender to probation. On July 15, the Cheonan Branch Criminal Division of the Daejeon District Court (Presiding Judge Jeon Gyeong-ho) sentenced Mr. A (41 years old), who was arrested and indicted on charges of fraud (fraud) on the Act on the Aggravated Punishment of Specific Economic Crimes, to two years in prison and three years of probation, and sentenced the other defendants, who were the main criminals in this case, to three years in prison and two years and six months in prison, respectively. They signed up for specific products of the mutual aid company. It is known that a total of 1.3 billion won in profit was obtained by using the so-called electronic product ‘durable system’ (a new Internet word meaning ‘saving myself’), which is a variant loan in which expensive products such as electronic products provided through rental contracts are sold directly to a third party and the necessary funds are paid. Among them, Mr. While making the offer, he was accused of introducing the victim company's products and making a profit by disposing of the expensive products provided to the loan seekers after subscribing to the mutual aid product. Most of the loan seekers were poor credit and had financial problems, so it was found that they did not have the intention or ability to pay mutual aid and home appliance installments normally even if they signed up for the mutual aid product. Mr. A conspired with other defendants who were acquaintances in particular to run 'durable goods' through internet cafes, etc., centered around his hometown. After recruiting prospective borrowers, he committed the above crimes 165 times and was indicted on charges of misappropriating goods worth 500 million won. In this criminal trial, Mr. A's lawyer emphasized that the defendant was not the main criminal in this case and argued for consideration by revealing that the market value of the property in this case was lower than the amount of misappropriation stated in the indictment. Criminal Division 1 of the Cheonan Branch of the Daejeon District Court, which tried this case, said, “The defendants systematically divided their roles and committed the crime. The so-called 'durable system' crime not only causes enormous financial damage to the victim company, which is the direct victim, but also has great social and economic harm in that it ultimately worsens the economic situation of many borrowers who were in a difficult situation where even small loans are difficult," he said. “It cannot be done,” the court ruled. As for the reason for sentencing Mr. A, the court said, “It is an advantageous situation that the victim company does not want to punish Mr. A as some of the damages have been repaid and agreed to, and that the company has generally acknowledged and reflected on the crime from the beginning of the investigation,” said Lim Hye-jin, a lawyer at Daeryun Law Firm (Lihan), who represented Mr. A in this case, “As the pattern of fraud crimes has become more diverse, demands for stronger punishment for types of organized fraud are increasing.” “It is not uncommon to see severe punishment for new types of fraud, etc.,” he said. “Fortunately, in this case, we were able to avoid court detention by emphasizing that he was an accessory to the incident and not the main offender, and by making it clear that the actual proceeds of the crime were not large.” [View full article] - 500 million won defrauded through ‘mutual assistance loan’ electronic product rental fraud...

A man in his 40s who was handed over to trial on charges of working as a cash collector in a voice phishing organization is attracting attention after being found not guilty. A man in his 40s who was handed over to trial on charges of working as a cash collector in a voice phishing organization is attracting attention. On June 24, the Seoul Eastern District Court's Criminal Division 1 (Presiding Judge Park Hee-geun) acquitted Mr. A, in his 40s, who was indicted on fraud charges on June 24. Mr. A was found not guilty last year on June 24. In May, he received a check worth 105 million won from two voice phishing victims and was accused of delivering it to a secondary collector. Mr. A, who had been struggling to make a living for a long time due to his chronic illness and the impact of COVID-19, registered his resume on a job search site to get a job. Mr. A received a real estate survey job from a company official, signed an employment contract, performed actual related work, and received an allowance. Afterwards, Mr. A received additional instructions to recover the deposit for the apartment, went to the location, collected the envelope containing the check, and then delivered it to another collection agency, implicating him in a voice phishing crime. The court said, “Given the circumstances in which the defendant received the check without supporting evidence and handed it to another person, it is reasonable to suspect the defendant’s intention to commit fraud,” but added, “The evidence submitted by the prosecutor alone shows that the defendant colluded with a voice phishing organization or had an unintended intention to commit fraud.” “It is difficult to say that the facts have been proven beyond a reasonable doubt,” he said, giving the reason for the acquittal. He also added, “Looking at the fact that the defendant conducted an apartment investigation for a considerable period of time and the circumstances in which he sensed something strange and went to the police station right after the crime, there is a high possibility that the defendant, like the victims, was deceived by the sophisticated techniques of the voice phishing organization and carried out the collection.” Attorney Park Seong-dong of Daeryun Law Firm (Limited), who was in charge of defending the case, said, “He committed the voice phishing crime himself.” “The methods are becoming more sophisticated and sophisticated to the extent that it is difficult to know that you are involved in a crime unless you have experienced it,” he said. “There are many cases where, even if one is unfairly involved in a case, the intentional act of failure is recognized and the person is punished.” He also pointed out, “In this case, it was proven in detail that the defendant himself was not aware of his involvement in the voice phishing crime, leading to a not guilty verdict.” “It is bound to have a significant impact on the judgment of guilt or innocence,” he explained.
