What does the Notice of Appointment of a Litigation Agent from the Procuratorate mean?

Legal analysis: A letter from the procuratorate lawyer informed the parties that they have the right to entrust an attorney to defend themselves. As for whether to entrust defense, it is the right of the parties concerned. Since it is a right, the parties can also waive it. Our country's law also stipulates that a defendant who is blind, deaf, mute or a mental patient who has not completely lost the ability to recognize or control his behavior may be sentenced to life imprisonment or death. If there is no defender, the court will appoint one. Therefore, as long as the party does not fall into one of the above situations, the procuratorate will not force the party to appoint an attorney. If the parties are unwilling to entrust a litigation agent, they can naturally abandon the entrustment.

Legal basis: "Criminal Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China"

Article 34 If a criminal suspect or defendant fails to retain a defender due to financial difficulties or other reasons, he or she shall Close relatives can apply to legal aid agencies. For those who meet the conditions for legal aid, the legal aid institution shall designate a lawyer to defend them. If a criminal suspect or defendant is blind, deaf, mute or a mental patient who has not completely lost the ability to recognize or control his own behavior and has not appointed a defender, the people's court, people's procuratorate and public security organs shall notify the legal aid agency to appoint a lawyer to defend him. If a criminal suspect or defendant may be sentenced to life imprisonment or death without retaining a defender, the People's Court, People's Procuratorate, and Public Security Bureau shall notify the legal aid agency to appoint a lawyer to defend him.

Article 45: Scope of Agents ad litem When entrusting an agent ad litem to exercise the rights of appeal and accusation of defenders and agents ad litem, refer to the provisions of Article 32 of this Law. If defenders or agents ad litem believe that the public security organs, people's procuratorates, people's courts and their staff are obstructing them from exercising their litigation rights in accordance with the law, they have the right to lodge a complaint or complaint. The People's Procuratorate shall promptly review accusations or reports, and if the circumstances are true, notify the relevant authorities to make corrections.
