Sentencing conditions of grassland fire

The criminal filing standard of grassland fire is the standard for filing and investigating acts that cause more than one death or three serious injuries, direct economic losses of public property or other people's property of more than 500,000 yuan, or houses and other basic living materials of families with more than ten people being burned. These standards are stipulated by law, aiming at protecting citizens' life and property safety and social public interests. In practice, after receiving the alarm, the public security organ will judge whether it meets the conditions for filing a criminal case according to these standards, and then carry out the corresponding investigation work. Understanding the criminal filing standard of grassland fire is helpful to improve the public's legal awareness and self-protection ability and reduce the occurrence of fire accidents.

Criteria for criminal filing of grassland fires:

Fire caused by negligence, suspected of one of the following circumstances, should be filed for prosecution:

(a) causing more than one death or serious injury to more than three people;

(2) Causing direct economic losses of more than 500,000 yuan to public property or other people's property;

(3) Causing the houses and other basic means of subsistence of more than ten families to be burned down;

(four) causing forest fires, with forest land area of more than two hectares, or forest land, shrub land, undeveloped forest land and nursery land area of more than four hectares;

(5) Other circumstances that cause serious consequences.

Grassland fire security penalties are as follows:

1. According to the provisions of the Fire Protection Law, if a fire is caused by negligence, the party concerned shall be administratively detained and fined;

2. See Article 64 of the Fire Prevention Law for details: If a fire is caused by negligence, which does not constitute a crime, it shall be detained for more than 10 days and less than 15 days, and may also be fined less than 500 yuan; If the circumstances are minor, a warning or a fine of less than 500 yuan shall be given;

3. If the losses are relatively large, which constitutes the crime of fire, according to the provisions of the Criminal Law, it can be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years or criminal detention; If the circumstances are particularly serious, they shall be sentenced to 3-7 years in prison. Generally speaking, there is no uniform standard in law about the severity of forest fire crimes. However, there are such provisions in the jurisdiction standards of forest and terrestrial wildlife criminal cases.

If the area of forest fire caused by personal negligence reaches more than two hectares of forest land, or someone is seriously injured or killed in the fire, a case shall be filed immediately. If a forest fire area reaches more than 10 hectares of forest land due to someone's negligent use of fire, or more than five people are seriously injured by the fire, the death case shall be regarded as a major case. If the area of forest fire caused by someone's negligence reaches more than 50 hectares of forest land or causes more than two deaths, it is regarded as a particularly serious case.
