PDF documents for public prosecution staff
1 min read·17 November 2028
Public prosecution staff work with criminal files, police reports, summonses, and out-of-court settlements. PDFrust supports the efficient organisation of large criminal case files.
Building a criminal file per suspect
A criminal file contains the arrest report, the interrogation record, the technical file, the summons, and correspondence with the defence. Merge all documents per suspect in chronological order: arrest, interrogation, technical investigation, summons, and annexes. Split the file to keep the pre-summons file and the hearing file separately.
Documenting out-of-court settlements and dismissals
Out-of-court settlement generates penalty orders, prosecution orders, and dismissal decisions. Merge the order with the corresponding file and the description of facts. Store the decision history per case in chronological order for traceable case management.

Compiling hearing files
For a court hearing, a hearing file is compiled with the summons, documents for the hearing, and the charges. Merge the pre-hearing documents: summons, police reports, expert reports, and evidence. Compress the hearing file for electronic transmission to the court.
Protecting personal data of suspects
Criminal files contain particularly sensitive personal data of suspects, victims, and witnesses. PDFrust processes all documents locally on the device — no cloud storage. Password-protect criminal files with a strong password. Remove metadata from documents shared outside the prosecution system.
