If the procuratorate calls the client to keep the phone open, can the lawyer see the documents?
The procuratorate calls the client to keep the phone open, so not a lawyer can read the newspaper. The procuratorate's call to inform the parties is only an acknowledgement of time, so that the parties can make an appointment in advance. After the people's court accepts the case, lawyers can read the papers. According to the provisions of Article 38 of the Criminal Procedure Law, defense lawyers can consult, extract and copy the case files from the date when the people's procuratorate examines and prosecutes the case.
