ENGELSKA - översättning, fakta och frågeställning [Sammanfogad tråd]

In the United States, solicitation is a crime; it is an inchoate offense that consists of a person inciting, counseling, advising, urging, or commanding another to commit a crime with the specific intent that the person solicited commit the crime. In the other common law countries, the situation is different:

* where the substantive offense is not committed, the charges are drawn from incitement, conspiracy, and attempt;
* where the substantive offense is committed, the charges are drawn from conspiracy, counseling and procuring (see accessories), and the substantive offenses as joint principals (see common purpose).

In England and Wales, the term soliciting alone refers to "loitering or soliciting in a public place for the purpose of prostitution" under the Street Offences Act 1959.
