Onder 3.7. Parket bij de Hoge Raad 16 februari 2016

Een alinea uit Parket bij de Hoge Raad 16 februari 2016, ECLI:NL:PHR:2016:206.

"44. Regarding the nature of the offence, the Court observes that section 1 (1) of the Disciplinary Act is not addressed to the general public but to the members of a professional group possessing a special status, namely practising lawyers and trainee lawyers (see Brown v. the United Kingdom (dec.), no. 38644/97, 24 November 1998, concerning disciplinary proceedings against a solicitor). Although the facts which gave rise to the disciplinary proceedings also constituted a criminal offence, the offences brought against the applicant in the disciplinary proceedings related solely to professional misconduct. The fact that an act which can lead to a disciplinary sanction also constitutes a criminal offence is not sufficient to consider a person responsible under disciplinary law as being “charged” with a crime (see Moullet v. France (dec.), no. 27521/04, 13 September 2007, concerning disciplinary proceedings against a civil servant; see also Vagenas v. Greece (dec.), no. 53372/07, 23 August 2011).
