Dismissal of prosecution after settlement with the victim in an indecent assault case

The client had been indicted for indecent assault that occurred after drinking and was standing trial. Attorney Jaehoon Lee represented the client.

The central question was whether the client could obtain a judgment dismissing the prosecution by reaching a settlement with the victim during trial.

Attorney Lee negotiated with the victim's side and reached an amicable settlement, then on that basis asked the court to dismiss the prosecution.

A settlement was reached with the victim, and the court dismissed the prosecution.
