Criminal court mediation only deals with minor criminal cases, usually cases arising from civil disputes. So how does the court mediate criminal cases? First, the victim is required to admit the facts of the crime. (2) The victim states the impact of the crime on his body, life, work, study, etc. (3) Personnel related to the outcome of the criminal act describe their feelings. (4) After a full discussion of the crime and its consequences, the mediator may ask the victim what compensation or compensation items he hopes to receive from this mediation, thereby helping to determine the obligations that the offender should perform. (5) All participants can have a say in how victims should be compensated and crimes resolved. (6) In the last step, after listening to the opinions of all participants, the mediator presides over the mediation participants to reach a settlement agreement and urges the participants to sign the settlement agreement. Supervisors dispatched by the People's Court or the judicial administrative department shall supervise the entire settlement process and the settlement agreement reached by the parties, point out illegal acts in a timely manner, and make suggestions for correction. Legal provisions: Article 288 of the Criminal Procedure Law: In the following prosecution cases, the criminal suspect or defendant sincerely repented, obtained the victim's understanding by compensating the victim's losses, apologizing, etc., and the victim voluntarily reconciled: (1) Suspected of Article 1 of the Criminal Law Crimes stipulated in Chapters 4 and 5 that cause civil disputes may be punished with fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years; (2) cases of criminal negligence other than dereliction of duty crimes that may be punished with fixed-term imprisonment of not more than seven years. If a criminal suspect or defendant commits an intentional crime within five years, the procedures stipulated in this chapter shall not apply. Article 289: When both parties reach a settlement, the public security organ, the People's Procuratorate or the People's Court shall listen to the opinions of the parties and other relevant persons, examine the voluntariness and legality of the settlement, and preside over the settlement agreement. Article 290: For cases in which a settlement agreement has been reached, the public security organs may make suggestions for leniency to the People's Procuratorate. The People's Procuratorate may make recommendations to the People's Court for lenient punishment; if the crime is minor and does not require a penalty, it may decide not to prosecute. The people's court may impose a lighter punishment on the defendant in accordance with the law.
