"the boundary of compensation": huang lin's case and the dilemma of compensation


한어Русский языкEnglishFrançaisIndonesianSanskrit日本語DeutschPortuguêsΕλληνικάespañolItalianoSuomalainenLatina

case background: in 2024, huang lin applied for state compensation because he was acquitted in the second trial. his way of obtaining compensation was troubled by the "personal freedom compensation" defined by the law. the amount of this "compensation", like a number, represents the balance between rights and losses. the court finally ruled that huang lin should receive 462.44 yuan per day in personal freedom compensation, which corresponds to the 1004 days he was detained, and the calculated compensation amount is as high as 464,289.76 yuan.

“additional” requirements for mental compensation:

the legal basis for defining compensation for mental damages is even more complicated. the court ultimately awarded huang lin 60,000 yuan in “compensation” for his “psychological trauma”. this is not a simple number, but reflects the legal considerations of “violation of personal freedom” and “reputation damage”.

the “controversy” of “eliminating influence”:

the court clearly pointed out in the decision that the claimant huang lin failed to provide the extent and scope of his impact and therefore could not "apologize." this reflects the dilemma of the law in dealing with "violation of personal freedom", which tries to find a balance point for "compensation" within the scope of the law.

finally, regarding the “dispute” over the reward for reporting: the court held that the fee did not fall within the scope of compensation stipulated in the state compensation law and therefore did not support it. this also reflects the boundaries of “compensation” defined by the law.

the relationship between “compensation” and “responsibility”

the dilemma presented by the huang lin case is not an isolated incident. it demonstrates the complexity of the legal definition of "personal freedom" and "reputation damage".

the law and society must always explore the boundaries of "compensation", find a balance, and provide corresponding protection for the casualties.
