Is it legal for the court to hold a hearing and make a judgment without informing the victim?
I asked the criminal police team who reported the case at that time, and they said that my case materials had been transferred by Jiaozuo police. I went to the public security organ in Jiaozuo again, and they said it had been decided. I want to ask, my case materials have been transferred by them. Why did you sentence the suspect without informing me at the trial? Is this legal? If I ask for compensation, the suspect has been sentenced. What should I do? A: The Criminal Procedure Law only stipulates that procuratorial organs should prosecute crimes based on the interests of the state and society. Although this also includes protecting the legitimate rights and interests of ordinary victims, it is difficult for prosecutors to fully reflect and represent the specific requirements and interests of each victim under any circumstances. At the same time, the Criminal Procedure Law clearly stipulates that the victim is one of the parties in criminal proceedings, which gives the victim an independent litigation status that is not attached to the public prosecutor in criminal proceedings. The independence of this litigation status determines that the people's court must respect the victim's independent litigation subject qualification in criminal trial. Therefore, the criminal judgment should inform the victim's family and let them exercise their right of appeal. It is illegal for a court to hear a case without informing the victim or serving the judgment on the victim. If you refuse to accept this judgment, you can appeal to the procuratorate and request the procuratorate to lodge a protest. In addition, according to the judgment that has been made, a civil lawsuit can be brought against the defendant to demand compensation for property losses. (Horizon Law Firm)
