Criminal Complaint to the Public ProsecutionMemoAdvancedDraft / Generate
Draft a criminal complaint to the Public Prosecution at the Court of Appeal in [governorate], Lebanon. Facts: complainant [name and capacity], respondent [name], subject [fraud / breach of trust / dishonoured cheque / forgery], chronological account [facts], exhibits attached [list], damage claimed [amount]. Deliverables: 1. The facts in a tight chronology, each one tied to an exhibit from the list. 2. The legal characterisation of the offence with the Penal Code article, setting out the physical and mental elements and how each is made out here. 3. The civil claim joined to the complaint, with the damage quantified. 4. The applications: investigation, hearing of witnesses, production of documents, and any interim measure. 5. A warning about what evidence the file is still missing before it is filed. Mandatory rules: do not invent articles or judgment numbers. Where the facts are not enough to establish an element, say so plainly rather than dressing up the complaint.
Extinction of Criminal Action on a Dishonoured ChequeMemoExpertResearch / Authorities
Under Egyptian law, determine whether the criminal action for issuing a cheque without sufficient funds has lapsed on the following facts. Facts: cheque drawn [date], bank refused payment [date], police report drawn up [date], first investigative or charging step [date], any subsequent interrupting step and its date [details]. Deliverables: 1. The classification of the offence (misdemeanour / contravention) and the period after which the criminal action lapses by effluxion of time, with the provision. 2. When the period starts to run: from the drawing of the cheque, the refusal, or knowledge — and what the courts have settled. 3. A timeline showing each interrupting step and its effect, then the arithmetic conclusion. 4. The other grounds of extinction available here — conciliation, payment of the cheque amount, waiver, death — and the effect of each on the criminal and the civil action. 5. The procedural objection to be raised and at what stage. Mandatory rules: cite the Code of Criminal Procedure and the Egyptian Commercial Code articles. If a different classification changes the period, present both hypotheses. Do not state a conclusion if the date of an interrupting step is unknown — tell me what you need from me.
Criminal Defence Memorandum: Bribery and Money LaunderingMemoEnterpriseDraft / Generate
Prepare a criminal defence memorandum under Qatari law for a defendant charged with bribery and money laundering. Facts: the defendant's capacity [public official / private], the facts as set out in the referral order [facts], the prosecution's evidence [list], stage of proceedings [investigation / first instance / appeal]. Structure: 1. Procedural objections first: nullity of the arrest or search, nullity of the interrogation, lack of jurisdiction, extinction of the action, and everything that must be raised before addressing the merits. 2. The elements of each offence separately with the article, then confront each element with whatever in the file negates or casts doubt on it. 3. Separate the two offences: show that money laundering is a standalone offence requiring proof of the unlawful source, and the effect on it of the predicate offence failing. 4. Deal with the evidence item by item — financial reports, testimony, correspondence — and the probative value of each. 5. The prayer: acquittal as the principal relief, leniency in the alternative, with the legal basis for each. Mandatory rules: cite the article of the Penal Code, the Anti-Money Laundering Law and the Qatari Code of Criminal Procedure. Do not invent a Court of Cassation ruling or principle. Where the facts given are not enough to build an argument, say so and ask for what is missing.
