As part of a criminal case initiated by the body of inquiry, on the grounds of a crime under Part 5 of Article 327 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation, the Principal of the lawyer of the Bureau of Lawyers “De jure” Konstantin Frolov was handed a notification of suspicion of committing a crime – the use of a deliberately forged document (fake quarantine certificates). A similar notification was handed to the Principal’s counterparty, whose interests were also represented by Konstantin Frolov, under Part 2 of Article 327 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (production of a forged document). During the preliminary investigation, the defense party attached evidence to the materials of the criminal case indicating the absence of guilt of the suspects. As a result, after repeated appeals from lawyer Konstantin Frolov, including challenging the illegal actions of the bodies of inquiry in court, the case was transferred to the investigative body. The investigation carefully examined the evidence available in the materials of the criminal case, and as a result, a decision was made to terminate the criminal case due to the absence of corpus delicti in the acts of persons brought to criminal responsibility.

The Principal drove a car while intoxicated, as a result of which he received an administrative penalty in the form of a fine of 30,000 rubles with deprivation of the right to drive a vehicle for a period of almost 1 year and 9 months. The lawyer prepared a consistent position and filed a petition to consider the criminal case in a special court procedure, since the crime committed was classified as a crime of minor gravity, there were no aggravating circumstances. Combined with the Principal’s repentance for his deeds, admission of guilt, having a permanent job and regularly providing assistance to relatives, he was given a moderate punishment – a fine of 200,000 rubles with deprivation of the right to engage in activities related to driving a vehicle for 2 years.
