The criminal law does not stipulate that civil compensation can be reduced or exempted on the spot. Only in recent years, in the trial practice, an act has violated the criminal law, causing personal injury or property loss to the victim. In the process of criminal proceedings (that is, before the criminal judgment is made), the defendant made civil compensation to the victim, and the victim submitted a letter of understanding to the people's court and the people's procuratorate, including a request for a lighter or mitigated punishment for the defendant. The people's procuratorate and the people's court think that the defendant should be given a lighter or mitigated punishment, and the victim agrees.
To sum up, civil compensation comes first, the victim issues a letter of understanding, and the court decides to give a lighter punishment, which is a way to solve the problem in criminal trial, rather than money widely rumored in society can buy punishment. Whoever handles the case of buying punishment with money will stand in the dock sooner or later.
