Does the letter of understanding play a big role in the procuratorate? Is there no need to sentence if there is a letter of understanding?

The letter of understanding plays a great role in the procuratorate. For minor cases, if there is a letter of understanding, there is no need to punish.

If the criminal suspect and the victim reach a compensation agreement and obtain the understanding of the victim, the judicial organ may give a lighter, mitigated or exempted criminal punishment.

For cases that have reached a settlement agreement, the public security organ may make suggestions to the people's procuratorate for leniency. The people's procuratorate may put forward suggestions for lenient punishment to the people's court; If the circumstances of the crime are minor and there is no need to be sentenced to punishment, a decision not to prosecute may be made. The people's court may punish the defendant lightly according to law.
