News Link: KMT legislator Chen Yu-chen and DPP legislator Lin Shu-fen have both proposed amending the Election and Recall Law to relax the restriction that "those on probation cannot run for office," with the bill scheduled for review next Wednesday. However, lawyers point out that reverting to a clause amended just three years ago not only undermines the stability of the law but also easily raises questions about whether it is a case of biased legislation, making it difficult for the public to accept this direction of amendment. Amidst the opposition between the ruling and opposition parties, it is rare to see a consensus on amendment content, but there seems to be room for discussion in persuading the public. Lawyer Li Yu-sheng of Fidelity Law Firm stated that the 2023 Public Officials Election and Recall Law stipulates that even if someone sentenced to imprisonment is…

If a dispute arises, it may require further determination of the validity of the online purchase by consumer protection agencies or even the courts. Fidelity Law Firm Line: https://lin…

Second, they can seek witnesses, making breakthroughs with involved middlemen or accountants, persuading them to become witnesses for the prosecution. Third, they can use situational evidence, cross-referencing the timelines of the accounting records with the official documents regarding the Jinhua Province's lenient housing reward program, which may piece together a quid pro quo relationship for the bribe. These are all directions the prosecution can explore in the future. How should one respond to corruption charges against a public official…
