In order to raise money for the company's Mid-Autumn Festival barbecue party, the site manager and foreman of the Sanying MRT project in New Taipei City secretly transported the leftover scraps from the project to a recycling station and sold them. Two batches of them made more than 60,000 yuan, which they used to buy barbecue supplies. Later, the person in charge of the company discovered that although the two people used the money to organize the company's Mid-Autumn Festival activities, they were still sued for business misappropriation.
High-end beef is served for "pounding". A must-have barbecue party is held during the Mid-Autumn Festival. It's a competition to see who has the most stupid party. It's just that the number of people is enough, but what should I do if the money is not enough? Some people are thinking about the company's property.
In order to help the company hold a barbecue party, the site director of the Sanying MRT project and other colleagues sold the company's remaining steel materials and used the money to buy Mid-Autumn Festival barbecue supplies. While MRT was covering his head, he was thinking about rice blood cakes, grilled sausages, tofu, and beef slices. He wanted to grill them during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
According to the verdict, the construction site manager surnamed Yang was responsible for steel control, and the foreman surnamed Chen managed materials. However, the two transported the scrap steel materials that were supposed to be returned to the owner to the recycling station and sold them on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, earning more than 60,000 yuan. They all used it to buy the company's Mid-Autumn Festival barbecue supplies, until the person in charge discovered that the steel was missing and filed a lawsuit for business misappropriation.
Lawyer Li Yusheng: "The judge took into account that the perpetrator later used the money for the company's Mid-Autumn Festival barbecue event, and believed that the criminal intent was minor, so he reduced his sentence." The manager surnamed Yang was charged with business embezzlement. The second crime should be executed in August. Yike Fine, foreman surnamed Chen should serve 4 months for 2 crimes, Yike fined, suspended for 2 years. Is it worth partying with the defendant for a Mid-Autumn Festival barbecue?
