Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer Chapter 221

  Chapter 221 Civil Tort, Luo Xiaobu Lost

   Municipal Court, Civil Division.

   "Stand up, the honorable judge is invited to enter!"

  As the court guard announced, the judge in black robe walked into the courtroom and went straight to the courtroom.

  After he took his seat, he looked around the audience.

   On the jury bench, six jury members are already seated.

   Both the plaintiff and the defendant have also taken their seats.

   As for the hearing booth, because it is a small case, there are not many people coming.

   "Well, the man in the first row of the hearing box looks familiar. I seem to have seen it somewhere. Are his eyes looking at me?"

The judge squinted and looked at a young man in the first row of the hearing box with a strange expression.

   This person's aura seems to be a little different from the few melon eaters in the hearing booth.

   But he couldn't say exactly what was different.

   But I always feel that there is a fundamental difference between this person and the other people in the arena, as if he is not here to come to the theater, but to be the leader of the review.

   Forget it, leave him alone!

  The judge shook his head, suppressed this unrealistic idea, and announced the start of the trial.

   In fact, this person is Zhang Wei.

   At this moment, he is looking at the jurors and judges in the hall to see which side these people are on.

   "This judge looks like a newly appointed judge. He belongs to a weak judge. He may make concessions to a strong lawyer!"

   Zhang Wei analyzed a lot just by looking at it.

  The one on the bench is not good for radish.

  Because his opponent is Lawyer Tian from Yongjie Law Firm, a veteran lawyer of the top ten firms, and he is also a relatively well-known type in the Oriental Capital Law Firm.

   Judges with little experience and qualifications, once they are weak in court, are easily led by such old lawyers.

   As for Luo Xiaobu, he is from the notary office, not even a lawyer.

  Although he has obtained a lawyer's qualification certificate and is qualified to go to court, he is only trying to save a lawyer's fee.

   He doesn't have any experience in court, and he will definitely be suppressed by Lawyer Tian later.

   Once Lawyer Tian launches an attack, even the judge may be led away, and then...

   "Where's the jury?"

   Zhang Wei's eyes swept to the jury bench again, and found that the six jurors in the civil court were all looking elsewhere at the moment, but they didn't care about the prosecution and defense at all.

   "That's right, it was originally a small case, and it's no wonder that the jury can take it seriously!"

   Zhang Wei knew that this was not a murder case, but an ordinary civil dispute case, a civil claim case.

A case like   , for the jury, is just a cutscene.

   The inattentiveness of the jury is to be expected.

   Once the trial is held, whoever has the loudest voice and can instill their claims into the jury better will have a more obvious advantage.

  Obviously, Luo Xiaobu must have hit Lawyer Tian's point in the selection of the jury.

   In this way, the advantages of this case are all on the plaintiff's side, which can be said to be overwhelmingly disadvantageous for the defendant Luo Xiaobu.

   "Hey, radish, ask yourself for more happiness!"

   Zhang Wei is not a lawyer for the defendant, the only thing he can do is to pray for Luo Xiaobu.

   "Cough cough... Since both the plaintiff and the defendant have been present, let's start the court!"

   "The process of this case is a fast-track trial. Both the plaintiff and the defendant will directly skip the presentation of evidence. Both parties can only call witnesses to speak. Once the plaintiff and the defendant have finished speaking, the jury can agree on the verdict. Everyone understands!"

   It was at this time that the judge on the bench struck a hammer to announce.

   For some small cases, quick trial is the best result.

   Both parties can save time, the court saves some costs, and this case is a small one, not worth fighting for.

   Fast trial, fast scheduling, and if you are lucky, the result will be released on the same day of the trial.

After the judge made the announcement, he then looked at the plaintiff.

Attorney Tian immediately understood, stood up and announced: "Your Majesty, our client believes that the behavior of the defendant Luo Xiaobu's public explanation has caused irreparable losses to Haojing Company, so we are hereby claiming 500,000 yuan from the defendant as the last weekend. Compensation for loss of business activities.”

   "500,000, this court understands!"

  The judge nodded and looked at the dock again.

  Luo Xiaobu was stunned for a moment, but he got up slowly and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, we insist on innocence..."

   The judge was stunned. Innocence is generally a term used in criminal courts.

   After thinking about it, he asked, "You say you're innocent, but you don't think you shit?"

   "Ah, no, I mean I don't think I need to compensate the plaintiff for my actions!"

   "Aren't you going to compensate the plaintiff, I understand, please explain clearly next time!"

   "Mmmm, thank you Judge, next time, definitely next time!"

  Luo Xiaobu nodded quickly. Pretend to be apologetic.

   "Hehe, it looks like a chicken at first sight!"

   The judge muttered in his heart and struck the hammer again to confirm.

   "Plaintiff, you can start."

   Lawyer Tian shook his suit, got up immediately, and began to state:

   "Cough, thank the judge, and also thank the jurors for their support. My gentleman Xingtian, from Yongjie Law Firm, was entrusted by the client, Hao Cleaning Sanitary Ware Company, to sue the defendant Luo Xiaobu..."

  His speech, although quite satisfactory, has said everything that needs to be said, and also showed his identity to the jury.

   Hearing that Lawyer Tian is a lawyer of the Ten Great Firms, the 6 jurors all looked at him with both surprise and admiration in their eyes.

"Using the names of the top ten companies to attract the attention of the jurors, then make the plaintiff's opening statement, and instill the plaintiff's demands into the jury bench. Although the methods are general, the old-fashioned methods are sometimes the most useful... "

   Zhang Wei watched this scene and slowly analyzed it.

Lawyer   Tian didn't use any strange tricks, but even the traditional ones were more than enough to deal with Luo Xiaobu.

   Zhang Wei's eyes turned to the court again.

   In the dock, Luo Xiaobu's plump body seemed to be shaking all the time, and he was very flustered.

   "When you grind your guns, you really can't change anything!"

   Zhang Wei felt helpless when he saw this.

  If Luo Xiaobu thought of himself the first time he had an accident, instead of being led by the nose, then this matter would be easier to handle.

Pity……

At the court, the plaintiff's statement continued.

  "...The behavior of the defendant, Mr. Luo, caused my client, "Haojie" sanitary ware company, suffered huge losses to its products and image. I think the 500,000 compensation is a very reasonable amount! "

  Lawyer Tian finally stated his purpose after gushing endlessly.

   He re-emphasized the claim amount of 500,000, and Luo Xiaobu's behavior in public.

   "Radish, object!"

   After seeing lawyer Tian's emphasis, Zhang Wei hurriedly shouted to the dock.

   Luo Xiaobu heard Zhang Wei's voice and stood up immediately: "Your Majesty, the defense is against it!"

   "Objection, why?"

   "We believe that the claim amount of 500,000 is too hard for a strong person, and this incident was originally an accident. We really cannot accept the plaintiff's request!"

  Luo Xiaobu recalled the training Zhang Wei gave him in the morning, while looking at the notebook spread out in front of him, Zhao Ben read out.

   Lawyer Tian saw that Luo Xiaobu dared to object, and immediately got up with a sneer:

"Your Majesty, the financial list submitted by us has been clearly marked. On the day of the incident, my client lost an exhibition room, a set of ceramic sanitary furniture, as well as the salaries of employees on that day, the rental cost of the exhibition hall in the shopping mall, and the cost of guest appearances, etc. Wait."

Attorney Tian said this and sighed, "In addition to the continuous fermentation of this incident on the Internet, the public opinion is very unfriendly to the reputation of my client's company, so we believe that the claim amount of 500,000 is reasonable and reasonable. of."

   Luo Xiaobu looked at the hearing box as if asking for help.

  Zhang Wei hurriedly made a fist-clenching gesture, which meant: counterattack, counterattack quickly!

   Seeing that Lawyer Tian finished his speech, Luo Xiaobu also got up immediately. Although he looked flustered, he immediately grabbed the words:

   "Your Majesty, I misidentified the bathroom because of an uncomfortable stomach and misled by the sign in the exhibition hall of the shopping mall, so I mistakenly broke into the model bathroom arranged by the plaintiff company in the exhibition hall."

"I hereby declare that it was the first time I went to the mall after it was renovated and renovated last year. I didn't know the location of the road signs and toilets, so I misidentified the signs. I think the plaintiff also bears some responsibility for this matter! "

   Luo Xiaobu said, looking at the plaintiff's seat with a hint of toughness.

  Although it is pretended, the jury is not an experienced court old fritter, and it is impossible to see if he is acting.

   They just felt that the fat man in the dock was not at all afraid to face the lawyers from the top ten firms, and he was indeed a bit powerful.

   After Luo Xiaobu finished speaking, he looked at the hearing booth again.

   Zhang Wei raised his fisted hand slightly, but did not let go, meaning: keep fighting back, don't stop.

Luo Xiaobu immediately looked at the plaintiff's seat and continued: "And I myself felt inappropriate for my wrongdoing, so I paid a cleaning fee of 1,000 yuan to clean up the exhibition hall. The defense believes that a model toilet uses half of it. The price can be cleaned up, 1,000 yuan is definitely more than enough!"

"Your Majesty, and everyone on the jury bench, as the saying goes, people have three priorities. When people face enormous pressure, they lose their ability to recognize basic matters; if you were in a strange shopping mall, When you see a sign in a bathroom, you are likely to do the same thing as me, which is a human conditioned reflex, or a fault caused by an instinctive reaction, which is an unintentional mistake.”

   "Your Majesty, and the six jurors on the jury bench, I believe that you have also had an uncomfortable experience of holding back. I believe you all understand how much physical and psychological pressure I had to bear at that time, right?"

   "We believe that it is very unreasonable for the plaintiff to initiate a claim of 500,000 for his unintentional behavior!"

   Luo Xiaobu re-emphasized that his behavior was really uncontrollable at the time.

   Of course, this is also true. When people desperately want to have sex, they can already be described as red eyes. In that situation, anything is possible.

   The judge nodded unconsciously.

   At the same time, some of the six jurors on the jury looked at Luo Xiaobu with understanding eyes.

   Lawyer Tian frowned slightly when he saw this scene.

   He knew that he had to change the direction of the wind.

   "Does the defendant think our appeal is unreasonable?"

   "Yes, and I took 1,000 yuan for you to clean the toilet, and I also sincerely apologized. Are you still not satisfied?"

   Facing Lawyer Tian, ​​Luo Xiaobu was hard-hearted.

   Because he found that he seemed to fight back according to the method that Zhang Wei told him, and indeed made the jurors and the judge understand him.

   Zhang Wei is amazing!

   According to what Zhang Wei said, wouldn't he be able to win?

   At the thought of winning the lawsuit, Luo Xiaobu was immediately excited, not even afraid.

  What about the lawyers of the top ten firms, Zhang Wei is behind me, you can't guess how strong he is, right?

   "I thought it was a weak chicken, but I didn't expect that there was an expert behind it!"

   Lawyer Tian's eyes also locked on Zhang Wei, who was in the first row of the hearing booth, and his eyes were full of fear.

   Luo Xiaobu is naturally not afraid, but Zhang Wei is different.

   Especially when he saw Zhang Wei and Luo Xiaobu's "little moves", he naturally understood that although the opponent looked at the dish this time, it didn't mean that the opponent really had no ability to counterattack.

   He can suppress Luo Xiaobu, but if he doesn't hammer the opponent to death, it is very likely that the people behind him will find an opportunity to counterattack.

   "Boy, don't blame me, I'm going to do my best!"

   Lawyer Tian made a decision. Even if he was facing a rookie, he had to go all out!

"No, no, the defendant misunderstood. The 1,000 yuan cleaning fee is unreasonable in my opinion. As for your so-called apology, it is also not sincere at all. Run away, right?"

Lawyer Tian sneered and said in a faint tone: "Your behavior in public is what my client can't tolerate. As for the so-called apology, if everything can be solved with an apology, then I can apologize a hundred times a day. A thousand times!"

   "Your Majesty, we believe that the defendant's actions violated tort law!"

   "tort law?"

   In the dock, Luo Xiaobu was stunned. He almost forgot what the terms of the Tort Law were.

   "tort law?"

   Zhang Wei was also stunned, looking at the plaintiff's seat, his face gradually became strange.

   "Oh, I see, property infringement, that toilet is the plaintiff's property, so this is the trick!"

   Just a moment, Zhang Wei wanted to understand the plaintiff's routine.

   And lawyer Tian, ​​after starting the conversation, Lang Lang said:

   "According to the Civil Tort Regulations, tort is to infringe on the legitimate rights and interests of others, and the coverage of rights includes not only material, but also spiritual and conscious levels..."

"Let's talk about the material first, or it may become part of the property. Defendant Luo Xiaobu made a public appearance in my client's property area and caused damage to the sanitary utensils displayed on the day with a total value of 30,000 yuan. This behavior is property. infringement."

"My client's company used the matching ceramic sanitary utensils as the propaganda theme on that day, and the defendant Luo Xiaobu's behavior forced my client to spend huge manpower and material resources to dismantle the whole set of sanitary appliances, and also interrupted the exhibition ceremony. Guest performances, etc. must also be cancelled, plus all the propaganda and promotion expenses invested in the early stage, these human, material and financial resources, etc., we think that my client is not an exaggeration to describe it as 'heavy losses'!"

   "In addition, after the incident, the negative comments on the matter on the Internet made the image of my client's company plummet!"

"Your Majesty, if you open the website with your mobile phone and search for the latest hot news on the Internet, you will find that the name of my client's company has always been in the top ten of the Oriental Capital Hot Words Ranking. Plus Internet public opinion and netizen comments are misleading, and the reputation of my client's company has almost fallen to the bottom, and they don't know how much resources and public relations receipts it will take to save this loss."

   "It can be said that Mr. Luo Xiaobu's behavior constituted a spiritual and conscious infringement on my client!"

   After the judge heard this, Zheng nodded his head.

   These words are all right. The products of the plaintiff, Hao Cleaning Company, mainly focus on bathroom cleaning utensils.

  The result is that when you search for this company now, all the news that comes up is a bunch of stuff, which really has a huge negative impact on the company's image.

   Netizens are all searching for toilet utensils, and all they see are these things. Do you think they will still buy products from cleaning companies?

  The answer is of course no!

   Who would buy a product with so many "negative reviews", what I want to clean up is **, but your product is reminiscent of **, isn't it stupid to buy this thing?

   Now, not only the judge understood, but the six members of the jury also understood, and they looked at the plaintiff with a hint of pity.

   "Oops, the problem is out of line!"

  Zhang Wei saw this scene, and his heart skipped a beat.

  Because of the limited time, he only received Luo Xiaobu's call for help last night, and this morning he helped the other party to answer the mock court trial, and many things were not considered.

   Also because of the rush of time, many of the defense speeches he prepared for Luo Xiaobu were only one-sided.

   Now, Lawyer Tian has used a very in-depth trick, Zhang Wei knows that Luo Xiaobu obviously can't answer.

   "Zhang Wei, what should I do, you didn't explain this topic to me..."

   In fact, Luo Xiaobu panicked at the moment.

   Zhang Wei did not refute the infringement method proposed by lawyer Tian in his reply to the mock trial.

   This move really caught him off guard.

   He looked at the only backup in the hearing booth, but unfortunately the latter also shook his head.

   This move has no solution for the time being.

   "Your Majesty, the defense has applied for a temporary adjournment..." Luo Xiaobu had no choice but to resort to this.

   "Reason?" The judge was slightly surprised, but still asked.

   "The reason...I..." But this question stopped Luo Xiaobu.

   Yes, I want to request an adjournment, what reason should I give?

   It's impossible to say that we should discuss countermeasures with Zhang Wei in the hearing box. The other party is not his own lawyer, so the judge will not agree.

   "I want to ask for help again, do you think I will give you a chance?"

   And lawyer Tian in the plaintiff's seat also saw Luo Xiaobu's plan.

   "Your Majesty, this case is a fast-track trial, and the defense has to adjourn without any reason. Isn't it too much?"

   "Attorney Tian is right, please tell the defense the reason for the adjournment as soon as possible!"

"I……"

The judge understood, and immediately said displeased: "Since the defense has no reason, the court will not approve the adjournment, and the defense will continue!"

   Luo Xiaobu saw that the judge did not agree, and his face suddenly became like a mourning wife.

   Attorney Tian in the plaintiff's box was smiling.

Won!

   You are going to win!

   That's not right, he is obviously winning a rookie, why is he so excited?

   As if you had won a strong enemy?

   But isn't the real strong enemy sitting in front of the hearing box the whole time?
