Forgery of private documents, execution of forged documents, untrue entry in public electronic records, untrue entry in public electronic records, etc. and unauthorized use of public electronic records.
Case issues
The client complained that the collateral was provided by an acquaintance of the complainant, and that the creditor arbitrarily applied for the auction, contrary to the previous agreement.
Ultimately, the issues in this case were whether the client was directly deceived in obtaining the collateral, whether the client participated in the random auction of the collateral, and whether, as a matter of law, fraud could be established.
Troubleshooting issues
Through in-depth interviews with our client, we quickly understood the complex facts of the case, prepared and submitted opinions of fact and law, and urged the investigation of favorable witnesses.
The results largely reflected the opinion of Ong Kang's defense team, and the client pleaded to Not Guilty (Insufficient Evidence) on all charges.
