Crazy, You Call This a Trainee Lawyer Chapter 580

   Retrial!

   is actually very difficult.

  Longguo Supreme Court may need to accept tens of thousands of cases of appeal + retrial + retrial every year, but the passing rate is only a few.

   This number may be in the tens or hundreds, but it is definitely no more than three digits.

   A percentage of less than single digits is enough to illustrate the point.

  Although the presiding judge looked at the photos of Chen Xiao and You Dalei with a little doubt in his eyes, it was obviously not enough to win this retrial.

   "Your Excellency Judge, the acquaintance of Mr. You and I was just a coincidence. At that time, I didn't know that You was always the boss of Longxiang Construction!"

  Chen Xiao naturally stood up and quickly denied it.

   Anyway, this was all 12 years ago, and Tie Ruyun only took pictures at that time, and there was no other evidence.

   There is neither video nor recording, so I have to deny it, how can you prove it?

   "That's a good excuse. If you don't know anything, you just want to get rid of the relationship. Attorney Chen, you're so shameless!"

   "Lawyer Zhang, what did you say to me?"

   "Nothing, I just think your excuses are too bad."

   Zhang Wei laughed, and then began to submit new evidence.

   "Your Excellency Judge, Zhu Gaojian, I have a document here, which can prove that lawyer Chen had many contacts with President You during the trial of the case."

   "As for her so-called coincidence, it's a completely fabricated excuse. Lawyer Chen has been in contact with Mr. You many times, so how could he not know Mr. You's identity!"

   Zhang Wei said and submitted the second piece of evidence again.

   The evidence this time is a thick stack of documents.

   "What are these evidences?"

   "This is the information that lawyer Huang Yunhe gave me during his lifetime!"

   Actually, these materials were found by Zhao Xiaoxiao in Huang Yunhe's cloud disk.

   But Huang Yunhe is dead, no one knows what he did during his lifetime.

   Zhang Wei said it was given by Huang Yunhe, and even if Chen Xiao wanted to refute it, it was impossible, because if you wanted to find out the truth, you had to go to the underworld and ask Huang Yunhe in person.

   "You may not know the judge and Zhu Gaojian, but the last person lawyer Huang Yunhe saw before his death was me. He was dealing with his wife's divorce proceedings, and I was his wife's attorney."

   "I got these documents from lawyer Huang Yunhe during the divorce proceedings to facilitate the statistics of the division of the divorce property between the two parties."

   Having said this, Zhang Wei's words paused slightly, and then sighed: "Of course, the final result, everyone knows, lawyer Huang was murdered, there is no need to continue the divorce proceedings."

   "But since I got some documents from lawyer Huang, I naturally have to expose the truth at that time!"

  Zhang Wei pointed to the document in Zhu Yuansi's hand and reminded: "Zhu Gaojian, and Your Excellency the judge, please look here."

   "General Manager You and Attorney Huang of Longxiang Construction have actually known each other for a long time, and the two sides have had many business meetings. Attorney Huang has kept a backup of all the records of his meetings with clients and uploaded them to the cloud."

   Zhu Yuansi and the judge couldn't help flipping through the documents, and they found dense rows of meeting records.

   Among them, Zhang Wei specially marked several meeting records in red. This is the meeting between Huang Yunhe and You Dalei.

"It can be seen that the meeting between Mr. Huang and Mr. You actually started as early as 13 years ago. At that time Mr. You had just set foot in the real estate development business. After he established Longxiang Construction, the consultant lawyer he hired was Mr. Huang. myself."

"Look at the few pages of records 12 years ago. During the year, lawyer Huang met with Mr. You 15 times, and even 4 of them went there with someone, and who was the person he brought with him. , but there are remarks at the back of the record!"

   Zhu Yuansi and the judge began to look at the year records 12 years ago, and found the 4 eye-catching records marked in red.

  Chen laughs!

   When Huang Yunhe met You Dalei, Chen Xiao was the one who took him there 4 times.

   "In these 4 meetings, the first 2 meetings were before the trial of my client's case, the 3rd meeting was during the trial, and the 4th meeting was after the case was decided!"

   "The timing of these meetings is very strange, and I can't help but think, is it the third time Mr. You called Lawyer Chen and signaled to the latter that my client must be imprisoned?"

   "As for the 4th time, is it because Lawyer Chen completed the task very well, so Mr. You invited Lawyer Chen to meet again and express his gratitude?"

"be opposed to!"

  Zhang Wei's guess finally made Chen Xiao couldn't help it, and interrupted him directly.

   "Lawyer Chen, are you in a hurry?"

   "Objection, Your Honor!"

  Chen Xiao pointed at Zhang Wei and said in a serious tone, "Lawyer Zhang's accusation just now is just speculation!"

   "Actually, as I said just now, my meeting with President You was actually a coincidence..."

   "Really, 4 coincidences, and I didn't inform my client that there is a conflict of interest between you?"

   Zhang Wei's eyes narrowed, his tone somewhat surprised.

"Lawyer Chen, don't use the rookie lawyer's rhetoric as an excuse. Even if you didn't understand anything at the time, don't the investigators of Longteng Law Firm have a hard time? They didn't tell you that my client, Mr. Guan, was working. Where there is a conflict of interest with the acquisition plan of Longxiang Construction?"

   Seeing Chen Xiao and wanting to make excuses, Zhang Wei directly went back.

   Investigators in general large law firms will conduct certain background checks on clients or clients under the advice of lawyers.

   Especially in criminal defense cases, the investigation of the parties or suspects can be said to be very detailed.

   Not to mention the place of work, the situation of the work unit, you have been out for business a few times, they can find accurate numbers for you, and even find the good girl who has served you.

   Therefore, if Chen Xiao said that he really didn't know there was a conflict of interest between Guan Yuhong and You Dalei, it would be a big joke.

   Could it be that the investigators of Dragon International are all dry rice?

   Therefore, Chen Xiao stopped talking.

   Because she couldn't find another interface for the time being, and Huang Yunhe's meeting record, there was no way to refute this.

   As long as Zhang Wei casually shows other interview records, it can prove that this record document is true, and she can't rely on it if she wants to.

"So, Your Excellency Judge, Zhu Gaojian, you can also see that 12 years ago, my client was under the service of defense lawyer Ms. Chen Xiao who had a conflict of interest and concealed the matter, without fully protecting her rights and interests. Accepted the verdict of guilt. This incident is a provocation not only against him, but also against the law, and a gross blasphemy against fairness and justice!"

   Seeing Zhang Wei speak so seriously, the presiding judge nodded subconsciously.

   "Well, this court also believes that if the defense lawyer in the case at the time had a major conflict of interest with the client, but did not inform the client, this kind of behavior is a serious malfeasance!"

  The judge said and glanced at Chen Xiao, "Lawyer Chen, do you have any objection to this accusation?"

   "Your Honor, I firmly deny it!"

   "Lawyer Chen, you can only deny it, right, because you know this is the truth, and you can't find evidence to refute it!"

  Zhang Wei sneered, as if to see that Chen Xiao was only playing with prestige.

   "Then, lawyer Chen, this court thinks that you claim a denial, but there is no evidence to refute the allegation."

  Chen Xiao's face sank, but he couldn't refute this.

"Well, this court understands. Regarding lawyer Chen's negligent behavior, I will explain to the Lawyers Association later. As for whether Lawyer Chen wants to object to this item, wait until the association's internal hearing and let them listen to you slowly. Explain!"

   The presiding judge said and looked at Guan Yuhong again, he was about to announce the result.

   "Your Majesty, allow me to interrupt!"

   But at this moment, Zhu Yuansi, who had never spoken before, couldn't help but interject.

   "Zhu Gaojian, what else do you want to say?"

   "Your Excellency Judge, if the case 12 years ago is remanded for retrial, there will be many witnesses and physical evidence, as well as the participants in the case at that time, and even the case's..."

   "Zhu Gaojian, I know what you want to say, but I care more about the rights and interests of the parties involved!"

   Seeing that Zhu Yuansi was still struggling, the presiding judge couldn't help it.

   "I believe you and I both know that in any case, the most important thing is fairness and justice. The law is the responsibility of fairness and justice. If even this cannot be guaranteed, what is the point of the existence of the law?"

   "Guan Yuhong, the party involved in this case, was treated unfairly 12 years ago. He paid 12 years of freedom for this. If he can't be given real fairness and justice, then it would be the greatest blasphemy against the law!"

   "I believe that if Mr. Guan is really guilty, then after 12 years, justice will definitely make a fair ruling, but if Mr. Guan is innocent, please reflect on it at the Longdu District Prosecution Headquarters!"

  The presiding judge said so, and looked at Guan Yuhong again.

   "Guan Yuhong, this court now informs you that you did not receive a fair and just trial 12 years ago, and such a mistake will not happen in the next retrial!"

  Boom!

The    gavel fell, which also indicated that the request for retrial was finally passed.

   "Yes!"

   In the hearing booth at the rear, Tie Ruyun was the first to raise his arms and shout, and gave an excited hug to Guan Ping next to him.

   At this moment, they waited for 12 years.

"finally…"

   Guan Yuhong also looked excited, with tears in his eyes.

   At this moment, he has waited for too long, and he can finally get fair and just treatment.

   "It's great, I can finally try again!"

   Zhao Xiaoxiao and the others were also very excited because Zhang Wei helped the client obtain the qualification for retrial.

   "Your Honor, we have another small request!"

   But at this moment, Zhang Wei was surprisingly calm, not excited at all because the appeal was successful.

   "Oh, Lawyer Zhang, what else do you want?"

"Your Excellency, although we have been given the opportunity for a retrial, we are very excited, but please consider the mood of my client who has been waiting for 12 years. I hope this case can be tried expeditedly, and the pretrial and hearing of the retrial will be arranged as soon as possible, so that my client can be heard. Clear up the grievances as soon as possible!"

   Zhang Wei said, please come to Guan Yuhong.

   "Your Majesty, my client has waited for 12 years. He suffered every day in prison. I ask the court to allow his little willfulness!"

   The presiding judge thought about it and thought it was reasonable.

  Although I have been waiting for 12 years, I don't think the person involved will mind these few days.

   But he still announced: "Well, this court has also approved it. I will help you to fight for the pre-trial tomorrow. As for the hearing date of the retrial, it depends on whether the judge in charge has time to arrange it!"

  Boom!

The    gavel knocked down, and Zhang Wei smiled with satisfaction.

  The appeal is successful, and the pre-trial will be available tomorrow!

   "Zhu Gaojian, in this retrial, you are still the person in charge of the prosecution?"

   "Of course, I was not a participant in the case back then, and even 12 years ago, I was not a prosecutor at the Longdu District Prosecutor's Office. I have no interest in the case. They will definitely arrange for me to come forward to deal with you!"

   "Okay, see you tomorrow!"

   Zhang Wei said, and left the courtroom with Guan Yuhong and his party.

   The next thing to do is the real court battle.

   "Zhang Wei, he really is a great man!"

  Zhu Yuan thought to what Qin Yang told him, don't underestimate Zhang Wei, this kid is a formidable enemy.

   Now, she finally understood why the other party was able to defeat Qin Gaojian.

   She also started to pack up and prepare for the pre-trial tomorrow.

   But before leaving, she also glanced at Chen Xiao.

   This time the case can be re-trialed, thanks to this help.

   Zhu Yuansi also left, leaving Chen Xiao alone in the appeal court, but she also walked out of the Supreme Court soon.

   Her mood at the moment is naturally very bad.

   I thought that it would be impossible for Zhang Wei to get a chance for retrial if she came forward, and with Zhu Yuansi's co-operation.

   But the fact is that she became the target of Zhang Wei's attack from beginning to end, and using her as a breakthrough made the presiding judge suspicious of her. In the end, she was provoked because of fairness and justice, and had to agree to the retrial of the case.

   In addition, the judge has to report her behavior to the Bar Association.

   However, Chen Xiao is not worried about this.

   After all, she still has people in the Lawyers Association, and she is from the Lord Long, so the Lawyers Association would not dare to do anything to her.

   Even if it is a so-called internal hearing, it is estimated that the process has gone through, and the final result must be that all 5 votes are not guilty.

   "So, the most difficult question now is Guan Yuhong's homicide trial?"

After   Chen Xiao sorted out the current situation, he felt that he still had to fight for Guan Yuhong's case.

   She doesn't hope that the headquarters of the local inspection department can send Guan Yuhong in again.

  Because there are so many things involved in this case, she has to be fully prepared, and she must not miss it!

   That afternoon.

   Longdu District Prosecution Headquarters, Zhu Yuansi's office.

   Zhu Yuansi never expected that Zhang Wei would come to visit directly after he came out of the Supreme Court.

   "What, you want the Investigation Section to arrange a safe house to protect your client!"

  Although he knew that Zhang Wei would be better at rectifying, but Zhu Yuansi never expected that Zhang Wei would make an "excessive" request just after winning the chance for a retrial.

"Yes!"

   Zhang Wei came with Guan Yuhong, and he had to apply for protection directly.

   He took out a stack of photos from his briefcase and placed them in front of Zhu Yuansi.

   "Qing Jiao will help all the green snakes, the gang hires the killer Limbert, and even lawyer Huang Yunhe, I think their deaths are all related to this case!"

   "Then, as the most direct conflict of interest, my client Guan Yuhong must also be the target of the enemy, so I ask Zhu Gaojian to agree to our request and provide my client with necessary security measures!"

   Looking at the photos placed in front of him, Zhu Yuansi looked puzzled, "Aren't these cases all about you?"

   "Yes, it's all related to me, but you know Zhu Gaojian, I've only been in Longdu for a week, how could it possibly involve murder, these cases are obviously related to the cases I'm accepting."

   Zhang Wei said, and pointed to Guan Yuhong and Guan Ping.

   "Before I accepted Guan Ping's case, the green snake came to provoke me, but after being cleaned up by my girlfriend, the people behind the scenes sent the green snake on the road to prevent the matter from being exposed."

   "Similarly, the gang hired a killer, Limbert. We have evidence to prove that he had a lot to do with the murder of Sun 12 years ago, so the people behind the scenes also silenced him in order to block the news."

   "As for lawyer Huang, who was also a participant in the case back then, we have reason to believe that he also knew the inside story. After the people behind the scenes discovered that he had lost his use value, they made necessary silence on him."

   "So we deduce that once the case really develops to the point of no return, it is not ruled out that the people behind the scenes will kill my client directly.

   Hearing Zhang Wei say that, Zhu Yuansi's eyes narrowed.

   In fact, the investigation department has not yet obtained enough evidence to link them together as to the cause of death of these people.

   But the murderers all used sniper rifles of the same caliber, which is enough to explain the problem.

   The news that Zhang Wei said today can be regarded as answering Zhu Yuansi's inner doubts.

  The deaths of these people are actually related to Guan Yuhong's case?

   "Lawyer Zhang, your request..."

   "Zhu Gaojian, I believe you don't want it either. When my client was on trial, something unexpected happened, right?"

   Seeing that Zhu Yuansi was still a little hesitant, Zhang Wei sneered and used the aggressive method.

"In case, I mean in case, the case 12 years ago was sent back for retrial, and the suspect died the next day, would the public think that it was the investigation department that made a mistake in order to cover up the possible mistakes 12 years ago? What bad move?"

   "This... this is impossible!"

  Zhu Yuansi never expected that Zhang Wei would directly threaten himself with this reason, and also threatened the investigation department.

   "Zhu Gaojian, you should understand that public opinion doesn't care about facts. They just need to find an explanation that the public thinks is the most reasonable, and then make up a mess."

   "Public opinion will always develop in a direction that everyone doesn't expect. If there are people with intentions to add fuel to the flames, it will obviously be a big challenge to the credibility of the District Prosecution Headquarters and the Investigation Department, right?"

   "I personally suggest that instead of waiting for the worst to happen, Zhu Gaojian might as well ask the comrades in the investigation department to work hard during this time."

   "It's better to say something well, to take precautions before it happens, than to write a review or even apologize afterwards, right?"

  Threat, Zhu Yuansi felt a naked threat.

   She never imagined that a criminal defense lawyer from the East would dare to threaten her directly.

   "Okay, Attorney Zhang, I will apply for the necessary protection from the Investigation Division for your client, you can rest assured now!"

   "Thank you Zhu Gaojian, then I will feel a lot more at ease."

   Zhang Wei finally smiled when he saw Zhu Yuansi compromise.

   But he doesn't feel safe at all about the so-called "safe house" of the Investigation Section.

   After all, in many movies, the safe house is the least safe.
