Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer Chapter 5

  Chapter 5 Pretrial Hearing

   In the evening, Dongda Forum.

   Not surprisingly, the campus forum was screened by what happened in the cafeteria today.

  Especially the matter itself, there are many hot words.

   It is Hua Jia Meimei, Yuan Dong, a child of a wealthy family, and a best friend who licks the dog Zhang Wei's revenge.

   These are proper clicks, and it's hard to think about it.

  Especially in the various chat groups and discussion groups of the East University Law School, the news refreshes per minute are 99+, and the discussion is still on this matter.

  Many students did not turn off the alert sound of their mobile phones, and they could hear the sound of "dididi" ringing non-stop when walking beside them.

   Even thanks to the popularity of Dongda University, this incident has also been on the hot search of V blog, and the keyword search of V letter is almost at the forefront.

   Among them, the popularity of a post is the most unprecedented.

"Shock! The poor boy was abandoned by his ex-girlfriend, and now his boyfriend is sneering, and he mentions that kind of thing in front of thousands of people! 》

   The title of this post is very exaggerated. The beginning is shocked to attract the attention of readers. Although the follow-up content is somewhat unreal, it is eye-catching enough to make people want to go in after reading it.

   Almost all of Dongda University knew that Zhang Wei was going to sue Jia Meili in a campus moot court. Many students were eagerly waiting for the trial.

  At the same time, the General Affairs Department also sent a notice.

  The mock trial was officially confirmed, and the venue is being arranged. The trial time is tentatively expected to be next Monday, and the venue is the auditorium of the department.

  The auditorium can accommodate thousands of people, which is large enough for a moot court.

   But when you think about the popularity of this matter, maybe there were more than a thousand people at the trial.

   At the same time, the General Affairs Office also issued a second notice that the pre-trial requires a jury to be screened, and all students from other departments can sign up to participate.

  Moot courts in the past were run by law school students and teachers themselves, because the content was just a review of classic cases, mainly in the mock court environment, allowing students to experience the atmosphere of court trials.

   This time, the moot court tried the conflicts between law school students. In order to isolate acquaintances from affecting the judgment and notarization, it was necessary to select juries from other departments.

   Immediately, many students from other departments began to sign up.

   After all, this is a special seat where you can observe the trial up close. What could be more comfortable than being a juror who does not need to speak the whole process?

This also led to too many applicants. The temporary clerk of the Law School compiled dozens of pages of jury lists, and finally handed them over to the General Affairs Office for screening, and finalized a list of more than 20 grand jurors, which will be used in court trials. for final screening.

   As for these people, those who can stay need to be screened by the representatives of both the plaintiff and the defendant.

   And before the court hearing, it is reasonable to hold a pre-trial hearing.

   Zhang Wei soon received a notice from the school.

   He has just come out of the General Affairs Office, and a junior is in charge of distributing the notice.

   "Senior Zhang, I didn't expect you to dare to sue Xihua, come on, we are all watching you!"

   After the apprentice sent the notification letter, he added gas to Zhang Wei and left quickly.

   "Look at me, are you planning to see me lose?"

  Zhang Wei watched his younger brother leave, sneering in his heart.

   He knew that the junior just now didn't really want to cheer him up, and he could identify whether the other party was lying.

   "Zhang Wei, do you really plan to continue?" Beside Zhang Wei, Xia Qianyue was inseparable, but there was worry in her eyes.

Zhang Wei didn't care, he just comforted: "Don't worry, Hanhan, I'm not the Zhang Wei I used to be, and I'm not someone who can be bullied. Just like what I said in the cafeteria, since I will sincerely feed you If I kill the dog, then I will use my own means to get it all back, if I didn't have the confidence, I wouldn't do it!”

   said, he suddenly approached Xia Qianyue.

   "By the way, are you free on weekends and ask you to go shopping?"

  Xia Qianyue didn't expect that Zhang Wei suddenly became so bold, was caught off guard, and stammered: "You, what did you say... Weekend you, you want to... ask me to go out, go shopping?"

   "Why, you don't want to go?" Zhang Wei smiled slightly, and then showed a pity: "Well, I can only go alone on weekends..."

   "Wait, I'm going!"

  Xia Qianyue was afraid that Zhang Wei would continue talking, so she hurriedly agreed.

   "Okay, see you at the gate of our school at 8:00 tomorrow morning!"

"See you tomorrow!"

  Xia Qianyue nodded subconsciously, not knowing how she left the office building.

   On the other side, Zhang Wei went straight to the hearing.

   When he pushed open the door of the conference room, he felt that the atmosphere was a little oppressive.

   Several professors of the Law School, and even the dean and vice dean are here. They are sitting around a U-shaped desk. When they see Zhang Wei appear, they all focus on it.

   If you are an ordinary student, you may not be able to stand such aura, but who is Zhang Wei, he directly ignores these gazes.

   "Hello, leaders, the plaintiff and attorney Zhang Wei is here!"

   He walked directly into the conference room and nodded slightly to everyone as a greeting.

  Although the self-introduction was very formal, such a move made Professor Zheng Qiang, who was sitting on the side, slightly unhappy.

   But he didn't like Zhang Wei at all, and he was still thinking about the broken tea set.

  Zhang Wei also saw Zheng Qian, but he didn't bother to say hello to him.

   "Zhang Wei, you're here!" Yang Qingquan, Dean of the Law School, nodded to Zhang Wei with a smile, and pointed to a corner of the conference table: "Sit first, then wait for Jia and the others to arrive."

   Zhang Wei did not hesitate, of course, he took his seat calmly under the watchful eyes of the leaders of the House of Representatives.

   This calm attitude surprised many leaders.

   The student in front of me is said to be introverted and not good at words. Why is what I saw today different from the rumors I heard?

   Among them, Professor Zheng Qian was the most surprised. Zhang Wei was not only different, he was a different person.

"By the way, Zhang Wei, this time we are holding a pre-trial hearing. In addition to listening to your client's opinions, I also want to ask you, which of us do you need to be the presiding judge of this trial?" Chang Yang Qingquan spoke again.

"Is the presiding judge?" Zhang Wei glanced at the leaders in the conference room, and finally shook his head and smiled: "Actually, I don't have any good suggestions for candidates, but if you insist on choosing one, it's better to let Vice President Geng Hongxia come. !"

   As soon as these words came out, a woman sitting on Yang Qingquan's left was slightly surprised.

   They had a meeting before to discuss who would be the presiding judge of this mock trial, and they also thought about asking Zhang Wei, one of the parties, for his opinion.

   They always believed that Zhang Wei would definitely want a man to serve as the presiding judge. After all, the nature of this lawsuit is a bit special, and having a woman as the presiding judge may lead to deviations in the outcome of the trial.

   Unexpectedly, Zhang Wei doesn't care about this.

  Yang Qingquan glanced at the door, and after realizing that Jia Meili and others had not arrived, he raised his eyes again: "Zhang Wei, can I ask why?"

   "Actually there is no reason, I just used a simple exclusion method, and then randomly selected the position."

   "Oh, the method of exclusion?"

"Yes, the method of exclusion." Zhang Wei smiled and explained: "The president has a lot of time and is obviously not suitable to be the presiding judge, and Professor Zheng Qiang and I have a conflict. Everyone knows about this, so he is also in the position. It will affect the justice of the judiciary. As for the other professors, they teach in the academy and may be involved with the students. They are also not suitable. There are only a few vice presidents who cannot contact our students on weekdays, so they are more suitable to be the presiding judges. ."

  Yang Qingquan pointed to the two middle-aged men on his right, and asked with a smile, "Then why didn't you choose Vice President Wang and Vice President Shen, as men, they should be able to understand your situation better?"

   "No, no, I think Vice President Geng Hongxia is the most suitable, because she has qualities that none of you have!" Zhang Wei waved his hand quickly, but his words stopped.

   "Oh, what qualities?" Several professors and leaders were curious about what qualities Zhang Wei was talking about.

   "I can be sure that Vice President Geng has never been a woman's licking dog, but I don't know about the other two!"

"Hahaha…"

   As soon as these words came out, everyone, including Yang Qingquan, could not help but smile, and the atmosphere in the meeting room became much more relaxed.

   At this moment, the door of the conference room opened again, and Jia Meili and Yuan Dong came.

   However, there was a girl in a suit who entered the conference room with them.

   "Well, isn't this Zhang Hui?"

   "Zhang Hui, the one who entered the top ten law firms as an intern?"

   "I remember that she was a year older than Zhang Wei and the others. Last year, she joined Yongjie Law Firm, which ranked 7th in the top ten firms. This girl is incredible. She was the top student in the class she graduated last year..."

  Zhang Hui, a senior student who was bigger than Zhang, after passing the law exam, she has now entered a law firm as an intern as an assistant lawyer.

(Assistant lawyers and paralegals, many people are confused about their nature, the former can be understood as the barrister's subordinates, who can share the pressure of the court trial if necessary. If the barrister is unable to appear, the assistant lawyer can appear in court on his behalf, while the latter is a clerk. Personnel, the focus of work is the copier + serving tea and pouring water + running errands to deliver materials...)

   Of course, even if you are an assistant lawyer, you have entered the firm and you can get in touch with lawyers who are working on legal cases.

   The dean also seemed to know Zhang Hui, and when he saw the other party, he said doubtfully, "Zhang Hui, you are here..."

   "Dean, as well as other leaders and professors, Senior Sister Zhang Hui is the defense lawyer for me and Jia Meili!" Yuan Dong immediately stood up and answered quickly.

"Defense counsel?"

  Including Dean Yang Qingquan, everyone was a little surprised.

   It's not that they don't understand.

  It is normal to have a defense lawyer in a court hearing.

   But this time the theme is a campus mock court trial. Although a real case is used, it is a contest between law school students after all.

   As a result, you asked an assistant lawyer who had entered a law firm as an intern. Isn't it a bit of a bully?

   On one side is Zhang Wei, who has never been to court, or even a mock court trial before.

   On the other side is Zhang Hui. Not only has he practiced in the top ten law firms for almost a year, but he was also a top student before graduation. Can the two parties be compared?

   At this moment, Zhang Wei stood up.

   "Oh, it turned out to be Senior Sister Zhang Hui, so please advise me in the next trial!"

   said, he smiled at Zhang Hui, as if he really didn't care about Zhang Hui's identity.

  Zhang Hui is a capable girl, but she also has the pride of a senior. After hearing the words, she nodded and responded: "You are the junior, and the next moot court, please give me more advice!"

   In this way, both parties have officially agreed.

   Dean Yang Qingquan saw this, but it was not easy to stop him.

   Zhang Wei didn't say anything, why should they worry about eating radishes lightly?

"Cough cough, since neither of you has any opinions, then the personnel of this trial are decided as such. But this time we are holding a pre-trial hearing, the purpose is not this, you don't think we are nagging, we just want to ask clearly, Can your conflict be resolved through reconciliation!"

   Dean said, motioning Zhang Hui, Yuan Dong and Jia Meili to sit down as well.

After the three of them were seated, they were face to face with Zhang Wei.

Chen Qingquan sat in the main seat and mediated: "We generally do not encourage the two sides to bring the issue to the surface for conflicts between students, but since you are going to hold a moot court, as leaders of the law school, we will naturally not object. We can even support you in holding a court hearing, and we can arrange the venue and personnel transfer."

   "But this time, Zhang Wei is suing Jia Meimei, and the legal definition of this matter itself is not easy to decide, after all..."

Before the dean's words were finished, Zhang Wei interrupted him: "Dear dean, I understand what you said, but I have made a list of compensations, and I just used this pre-trial hearing to convey the information to the defense. !"

   He said, and took out a note from his pocket, respectfully handing it to a professor surnamed Luo next door.

Professor    glanced at the contents of the note, raised his brows slightly, and quickly passed it on to his colleagues.

   In this way, one by one passed, and soon reached the hands of Dean Yang Qingquan.

   "Zhang Wei, do you want Jia Meili to pay for the supplementary lessons for the past two years, totaling 80,000 yuan, and 20,000 yuan in compensation for the incidental mental damage, totaling 100,000 yuan?"

  Zhang Wei nodded, his expression indifferent: "Yes, the 80,000 is my labor income, and the 20,000 is the mental damage fee. As for the incidental hospital expenses, it is only a fraction of a few thousand, so I will just erase it!"

"This is impossible!"

   "We want us to pay 100,000 yuan, why don't you grab it?"

   Hearing Zhang Wei's request, Yuan Dong and Jia Meili were not calm.

   It's not that they can't afford it, but Zhang Wei really dared to open his mouth and ask for 100,000 casually. This is simply extortion.

   "Please pay attention to both of you. I am requesting Jia Meimei to pay my labor income. How can it be called a robbery?"

   Zhang Wei smiled: "If I really want to rob, then I don't want 100,000, how about 1 million instead?"

   Seeing Zhang Wei's attitude, Zhang Hui finally stood up: "Dean, and all the leaders, I think Zhang Xuedi's request is a bit excessive, and the amount is too large!"

   "No, it's not big at all. This amount is set by me according to the fee of the off-campus cram school, and even the amount has been reduced. The specific details of the calculation are also listed in the note, and everyone can check it!"

Yang Qingquan lowered his head again and swiped through the list: "Zhang Wei did write this, the tuition fee is 100 per hour, 2-3 hours a day, 2.5 hours, 4 days a week, 16 days a month , 10 months of living on campus a year, 20 months in two years, a total of 800 hours, and the fee is exactly 80,000!"

"Is 100 an hour expensive?" Zhang Wei looked at Zhang Hui and the others, "Now the extrcurricular special cram school charges 200-300 an hour, and there are still students rushing to go there. I only charge 100, so I'm already a classmate. Friendship is worth it!"

   After hearing Zhang Wei say this, for some reason, people including Yang Qingquan felt that the price was really cheap.

   Not to mention, they have even listed the detailed list for you, and there is no problem with the length of the daily make-up lessons and the total charging standard.

   Looking at it this way, the amount of compensation seems to be quite reasonable indeed.

"By the way, and your best friend Feng Li!" Zhang Wei looked at Jia Meili, and said in a rather generous tone, "I remember that she also came to listen to many of my classes. More than 100 hours. But I am a generous person, so I don't ask her to charge her, and the 80,000 yuan also includes her, so let your good girlfriend pay together! "

   Hearing her best friend Yang Li, Zhang Hui's eyes lit up slightly. It seems to have caught something from Zhang Wei's words.

   And Zhang Wei.

   As he spoke, he stood up.

"Leaders, Dean, this is the end of the pre-trial hearing. I won't cancel this lawsuit anyway, and looking at the appearance of Jia Meili, I obviously won't agree to reconcile with me, otherwise they will I won't invite Sister Zhang Hui to help out!"

   "Next weekend, I have to prepare court materials and witness testimony, so I won't take up the leaders' time!"

   Zhang Wei and the other leaders, as well as Senior Sister Zhang Hui, nodded and left.

   Everyone, including Yang Qingquan, did not stop him.

   "Leaders and professors, then we are going to prepare the court materials."

   Zhang Hui naturally took Jia Meili and Yuan Dong away when he saw this.

   But when they walked out of the door, Zhang Hui couldn't help it anymore.

   "Jia Meili, tell me the details of the tutoring, I want to know the details of this case, and besides you, who else has participated in Zhang Wei's tutoring?"

   "At that time, besides me and Feng Li, there was another named Xia Qianyue, but she was from the Criminal Investigation Institute..."

   "Xia Qianyue, tell me about this girl and your tutoring situation. I want to know what witnesses Zhang Wei will present, and prepare a response strategy in advance!"

   "Okay, senpai."

the other side.

  Zhang Wei also returned to the dormitory.

   He's about to start preparing for the next mock trial.

   Of course, he is familiar with court trials and can no longer be familiar with them any more, and he even had an ambush in the pretrial motion just now.

  The contest of the court trial, once decided, be very careful, because at any time you may step on the mines planted by the other party.

   Zhang Wei shook his head and smiled while picking up the pen to write: "I always feel like I'm bullying people. A trainee lawyer who has just stepped into a law firm will face me in the first trial."

   said, he looked towards the door because he heard Luo Xiaobu's voice.

   "Zhang Wei, Zhang Wei, are you in the dormitory, is it true, you are going to file a lawsuit with classmate Jia Meili?"

   Before the little fat man arrived, a panicked voice was already heard.

   When he opened the door and saw Zhang Wei with a calm face, he was speechless.

   "Radish, you came just in time. I still lack an assistant lawyer during the trial, so you will be the one!"

   "Ah, why me, can't you ask questions yourself?"

   "You're right, I really can't ask questions, because I will call myself to testify, and I can't ask myself questions myself!"

   Hearing Zhang Wei's words, Luo Xiaobu's eyes widened.

   Why is your operation so showy?
