1. What is a letter of understanding?
Letters of understanding are divided into administrative letters of understanding and criminal letters of understanding. Administrative letters of understanding are generally public security cases, which cause contradictions and disputes for trivial matters of life. If the two sides reach an understanding after the alarm, the public security organ may not pursue legal responsibility. Criminal understanding cases are generally serious in nature and belong to criminal offences. Criminal understanding generally means that the victim of a criminal case reaches a settlement agreement with the criminal suspect, the criminal suspect's agent or the criminal suspect's family on the handling result of this case, and the victim issues a written document with legal nature.
Second, what is the role of the letter of understanding?
Administrative knowledge can be entangled with public security cases to a certain extent. The other party reached a certain settlement agreement at the police station, and the two sides did not pursue criminal understanding with each other, which had the advantages of mitigating punishment and dealing with criminal suspects lightly. The main performance is that the victim or the victim's family forgives the criminal suspect's actions.
3. Should the letter of understanding be handed over to the police station or the procuratorate?
Generally, the procuratorate issues a letter of understanding when it files a public prosecution with the court, and the court needs to complete it during the cross-examination. Because the letter of understanding is an agreement reached between the victim and the suspect's family or the suspect's attorney, which can alleviate the punishment of the suspect to a certain extent, it will generally be handed over to the procuratorate, which will send it to the court.
