Investigation discontinued: attempted theft
Discontinuation at the investigation stage
What had happened? The client was suspected of having aided a case of aggravated theft by helping the main suspect to secure the loot. The proceedings were discontinued under sect. 47 JGG (German Juvenile Courts Act) subject to the payment of a small sum of 200 euros. This spared the client a main hearing and brought the proceedings to an end.
Provisions: § 47 JGG
The proceedings described here have been concluded. The outcome of any case always depends on its individual circumstances.
