Second, who can I call to defend myself?
1, lawyer. Lawyers are legal service personnel who are qualified as lawyers according to national laws and are conducting lawyer business. Lawyers can be divided into full-time lawyers and part-time lawyers. Both full-time lawyers and part-time lawyers can be entrusted as defenders. It should be noted here that people with lawyer qualification are different from those who have lawyer qualification and are practicing lawyer business. After passing the national unified examination for lawyer qualification, the judicial administrative department of the State Council can grant him the lawyer qualification. However, those who have obtained the lawyer qualification can only engage in lawyer business after applying and being issued a lawyer practice certificate by the judicial administrative department. Although he has obtained the qualification as a lawyer, he cannot engage in business in the name of a lawyer without obtaining a lawyer's practice certificate. The law also stipulates that the current staff of state organs shall not concurrently serve as practicing lawyers, and lawyers shall not practice while serving as members of the standing committees of people's congresses at all levels.
2. People's organizations or personnel recommended by the unit where the criminal suspect or defendant belongs. The "people's organizations" mentioned here mainly refer to the Communist Youth League, trade union organizations and women's federations. People's organizations or persons recommended by the unit where the criminal suspect or defendant belongs shall not serve as lawyers.
3. Guardians, relatives and friends of criminal suspects and defendants. The "guardian" mentioned here is mainly aimed at the parents of minors. According to the law, parents of minors are legal guardians of minors. If the parents of minors are incapable of guardianship or die, their grandparents or brothers and sisters may act as guardians. What is "relatives and friends" is not clearly defined in the Criminal Procedure Law. According to the general understanding, relatives and friends are relatives and friends. According to the law, criminal suspects and defendants can choose their guardians and other relatives and friends as their defenders in addition to their lawyers, so that they can fully exercise their right to defense according to their own circumstances.
According to the provisions of the Criminal Procedure Rules of the People's Procuratorate, defense lawyers should be allowed to consult, extract and copy the case files from the date when the People's Procuratorate examines and prosecutes the case. The case file includes the litigation documents and evidential materials of the case. I hope the above content can help you.
