How serious is the offence, and should we compromise with ₹2 lakhs if the demand is ₹3 lakhs?
How serious is the offence? Is it worth compromising the case with 2 lacs lumpsum if the demand is 3 lacs by the person who filed FIR to take the case back? How should we proceed. what affects can this case have on a job or career of a student appearing for jobs
Dear Client, the seriousness depends on the offense in the FIR; a criminal case can affect future jobs and background checks. The chance of a compromise may help in certain cases, but not all offenses can be withdrawn by it. So do not agree to it blindly and negotiate properly and ensure that it is recorded legally in the court. And consult a lawyer before settling to protect career and legal interests. I hope this answers your query, for further queries contact us.
The mere filing of an FIR does not impact employment unless court proceedings have commenced or a conviction has occurred. Therefore, if you have not been convicted and the case is still pending, your job prospects remain relatively secure. The demand to settle for ₹3 lakhs, with a counter-offer of ₹2 lakhs, should be carefully considered. Weigh the financial implications against the potential long-term effects of continuing with the case. If settling can prevent further complications and legal expenses, it might be worth considering. Consult with a lawyer who specializes in criminal law to understand your options better and to navigate any potential settlements or defenses effectively.
