案例分析

陳柏豪律師接受《南華早報》採訪,講解立法會議員陳家佩涉嫌逆線駕駛汽車,有機會干犯危險駕駛,以及一旦定罪時可能遭受的刑罰,包括罰款及社會服務令等。

值得留意的是,不小心駕駛屬交通定罪,而危險駕駛則屬刑事定罪,後者會留有案底。

” … Lawyer Eric Chan Pak-ho, who runs his own firm CPH Legal, said whether the incident constituted a criminal offence depended on how police charged her. If it were careless driving, it would not be a criminal offence, but it would be if it were dangerous driving.

He also noted that Article 79 of the Basic Law stipulated that a lawmaker would be disqualified if he or she was convicted and sentenced to imprisonment for one month or more for a criminal offence, and would be relieved of his or her duties if two-thirds of sitting Legislative Council members passed a motion.

“Judging from the dashboard camera footage, let’s say she is charged with dangerous driving, I would guess there is no need for imprisonment but a likelihood for a fine or community service order if we refer to past cases,” Chan said.

“A fine will be more likely, I think, if she is found guilty. After all, no one was injured, and the court may consider the case relatively less serious [in nature].””

法律知識 :

香港的律師專業分為「律師」(Solicitor) 及「大律師」(Barrister)。一般而言,律師從事範圍較廣泛,從訴訟 (俗稱打官司) 到準備各類法律文書等,而大律師專注出庭工作及深入的法律研究。

值得留意的是,一般而言,你不能直接聘用大律師,而必須經你的律師聘用大律師。

本行主任陳柏豪律師是香港為數不多,有在列事審訊出庭抗辯及檢控經驗的事務律師。因此,在合適的案件中,你可以節省額外聘請大律師的費用。

在一些較複雜或較嚴重案件,你可能希望聘請大律師代表出庭或給予法律意見。本行律師有豐富經驗聘請不同年資的大律師,包括多位著名的資深大律師 (Senior Counsel),在各級法院進行審訊及上訴工作。
