Case Background and Legal Disputes

Hotel restaurant director was prosecuted for using NT$20,000 "parking coupons" │ TVBS news reporters Huang Kaijing and Li Jianwei

A man surnamed Liao in Taipei, who previously worked as a kitchen manager at the Courtyard by Marriott Taipei, abused his position by keeping parking vouchers that should have been destroyed and using them to offset his own parking fees. Over a period of nearly a year, he secretly used vouchers worth NT$20,000. The hotel discovered this and immediately filed a complaint. The Shilin District Prosecutors Office recently concluded its investigation and indicted him for embezzlement. A criminal lawyer from Fidelity Law Firm stated, "If a person possesses company property for business purposes but uses it as their own with the intent to appropriate it, it constitutes embezzlement, punishable by imprisonment for six months to five years and a fine of up to NT$90,000."

Opinion of Fidelity Law Firm

Lawyers at Fidelity Law Firm advise that in similar cases, one should not only look at the news headlines, but also return to the evidence, legal requirements, procedural stages, and the client's actual objectives. If the case has entered the court, district prosecutor's office, investigation bureau, or negotiation process, the earlier the information is gathered, the more room for maneuver it will retain.

What should be confirmed first when encountering similar cases?

  • First, organize the event timeline, notices, contracts, chat logs, photos, videos, and payment information.
  • Confirm the current stage of the process: it may be just a consultation, you may have been interviewed, you may have received a summons, you may have entered into court proceedings, or you may need to file a lawsuit to seek compensation.
  • Assess whether there are immediate risks such as statute of limitations, evidence preservation, detention, imprisonment, settlement negotiations, or media exposure.

Frequently Asked Questions

When you receive a summons or are asked to speak with someone, do you need to hire a criminal lawyer first?

If you have already received a notice from the District Attorney's Office, the police station, or the court, it is recommended that you first organize the summons, case details, conversation records, and related documents, and have your lawyer assess the direction of the investigation, possible charges, and response strategies to avoid making unfavorable statements without knowing the legal consequences.

Is detention always a requirement for criminal cases?

Whether or not detention is necessary is usually related to the suspicion of a criminal suspect, the possibility of escape, the risk of collusion or destruction of evidence, and the seriousness of the case. In major criminal cases, financial crimes, corruption cases, or cases involving multiple accomplices, it is even more necessary to prepare specific materials as early as possible to explain that there is no need for detention.

What criminal cases can Fidelity Law Firm assist with?
