Case Concerning Parole Supervision of Prisoner Liu XX
(SPP Guiding Case No. 197)
Key words
Entity crime; Parole of directly responsible persons in charge; Performance of property-related judgment obligations; Investigation and verification; Public hearing
Summary
In handling parole supervision cases involving prisoners of entity crimes, the people's procuratorates shall separately examine the performance of property-related judgment obligations by both the individual prisoner and the implicated entity. Where the individual prisoner has fully performed all personal property-related judgment obligations, and any failure or incomplete performance of the entity's property-related judgment obligations cannot be attributed to the prisoner's personal fault, this generally does not affect the prisoner's eligibility for parole. In addition to substantively reviewing factors such as the original sentence, the circumstances of the crime, and the prisoner's conduct during the execution of the sentence, the people's procuratorates shall focus on the investigation and verification of the actual impact of the prisoner's parole on the performance of the entity's property-related judgment obligations, thereby achieving an organic unity of the "three effects" in the handling of parole cases.
