1. For criminal actions that require a private cause of action, the prosecutor shall issue a non-prosecutorial disposition in accordance with Article 234, Paragraph 1, of the Code of Criminal Procedure when the complaint is unlawful or without cause of action. Such disposition issue naturally does not occur without the filing of a complaint. The part of the so-called "should be revised" as contained in Interpretation Yuan-Tze No. 2292 is in reference to the situation when the complaint is unlawful or without cause of action.

       2. For a case dismissed by non-prosecutorial disposition due to unlawful complaint, it can nevertheless be prosecuted if and when a rightful individual files a complaint in due course, and is not restricted by Article 239 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
