2023 09/14

Lawyers Dong Xiaohua and Chen Cong, senior partners of Gaopeng Law Firm, handled the case of J Company facing criminal charges and criminal compliance. After submitting targeted legal opinions and sufficient communication, the criminal risks were resolved and compliance rectification was avoided.


In April of this year, Company J (a state-owned enterprise) faced the risk of being accused by the prosecutor of committing a unit crime due to employees suspected of colluding in bidding. At the same time, the prosecutor requested compliance rectification with four other state-owned enterprises involved in the case. After accepting the commission, the two lawyers reviewed the case and found in detail that it was a natural person crime involving only a few individuals in the unit, not a unit crime; In addition, after investigation, it was found that the compliance construction of Company J is very complete, and natural person crimes belong to occasional crimes and are not related to the compliance construction of the unit. Two lawyers issued legal opinions based on this and actively communicated with the prosecutor, who adopted the lawyer's opinion. At the same time, lawyers have also invited the prosecutor's office on behalf of J Company multiple times to conduct research and understand the compliance construction situation of J Company.


Recently, a group of six people from the procuratorate came to Beijing to inspect the compliance rectification results of four other central enterprises, and visited Company J to investigate the compliance construction situation. The staff of Company J introduced the company's compliance construction over the years from aspects such as institutional construction, compliance management system, compliance work priorities, the important role of compliance construction in the process of enterprise operation and development, and compliance culture. The procuratorate highly recognizes this and also states that it will impose lenient penalties on the personnel involved in the case in the unit.


The two lawyers accurately grasped the case and fully understood the company's situation, not only helping J company resolve criminal legal risks, but also avoiding the company from investing manpower, material resources, and financial resources in unnecessary criminal compliance rectification. The case has been successfully resolved from both the perspective of the unit and the individual employee. The high-quality and efficient legal services provided by the two lawyers have been highly recognized by the client.
