Chapter 107 The war reignites: Group litigation lawyer selection meeting (2)
"Before I sing the votes, I would like to thank all the lawyers for their selfless efforts in this group lawsuit."
In the selection meeting room of the group litigation lawyer, Chishang stood on the stage and said. At this time, the selection had begun. The expert group in the next room had completed the voting and is now preparing to officially sing the vote.
"I'm sorry, according to the law, there are limited lawyers who can appear in court for a case. In this group litigation, there are two lawyers who have not been selected, who will regretfully withdraw or can only engage in auxiliary work behind the scenes. The lawyers who can go here in person to participate in the registration and obey the selection results are to put the justice of the law in front of personal interests. I want to say, please applaud yourself and the character of the Dongyang lawyer!"
A warm applause suddenly sounded in the conference room. Some reporters at the end of the room picked up their cameras and started taking pictures. Danyu was also sitting on a small chair and holding a notebook at the end of the conference room, preparing to record the latest selection results of the group's lawsuit. However, her eyes always fell involuntarily on the young figure in the conference room with a very large contrast with the surroundings.
At this time, Kitahara squinted his eyes. He had already smelled murderous intent from the seemingly warm opening remark of Ikeshang. He held his hands together, leaned against the back of the chair, crossed his legs, as if he was enjoying the performance of the drama actor.
"Play... applaud, Kitahara." Miyagawa clapped beside him and quietly hit Kitahara with his elbow, "Here, we are juniors. If we are not sociable, it is not good."
Ikegami enjoyed the applause from the audience and smiled on his face: "Next, please vote. The voting process of this expert group has been notarized by the Tomozawa Notary Office of Shinjuku District. The invoice and vote voting process will also be carried out by the relevant notary office to ensure that there is no fraud in the entire process."
But a notary walked up to the podium, holding a utility knife, and directly cut the seal of the ballot box. Next to it was a camera aimed closely at the ballot box.
A female notary wearing gloves and fumbled in the ballot box. After a while, she took out the first vote and handed it to the male notary behind her.
This is the first vote to be held in the group's litigation selection.
For a moment, the conference room became a little nervous.
Except for Kitahara, they were all extremely senior lawyers in the East Ocean. They also made great efforts and efforts to participate in this selection. If it were a fair and just selection, who would be elected would be a suspense question and would only be known at the last moment. However, what most people don’t know is that the selection has been secretly finalized in advance. This tense atmosphere seems a bit ridiculous in the eyes of those who are familiar with it.
The male notary stared at the vote in front of him carefully and whispered loudly: "First vote, Lawyer Kasaijiro!"
The third notary instantly made the first stroke of the word "全" on the list of lawyers selected on the conference room whiteboard.
"The second vote is Sukiyoshi Takashi!"
One vote after another was taken out.
The voter kept pronunciating the names on the voting.
The whole process is boring and long.
The expert group has a total of 305 tickets.
Time flies.
Finally arrived at the last ticket.
As the last vote was read out, the results were released: Nishimura Shuntaka, 105 votes, Sakai Tatsuo, 96 votes. Nishimura Law Firm and Sakai Law Firm won the Kawamoto Expressway Group's litigation representative lawyer. These two law firms are members of Tokyo Two Hundred Meter Club Law Firm.
Ikekami looked at the vote results, smiled and stood up and applauded: "Let us congratulate lawyers Nishimura and lawyers Sakai!"
In an instant, the flashes at the back end of the conference room rang one after another, and the two elected lawyers sitting in their seats stood up with a smile and accepted the attention from the camera. At the moment they stood up, their eyes had an extremely subtle contact with the pool, as if they had a cryptic tacit understanding.
But this small and hidden action was all contained in Kitahara's eyes.
On the whiteboard, Kitahara Yoshiichi's votes were [zero votes].
Danyu frowned at the result of zero votes. Although she knew in her heart that the plaintiff's lawyer named Kitahara was unlikely to be selected. But he was the initiator of the lawsuit after all. At least the votes should not be zero votes. At least some votes should be required to show respect for him. Danyu pinched his eyebrows and sighed gently.
"Then, if there is no problem, our selection meeting will end." Ikesaka said, and then began to pack up the information on the desktop. This sentence was just a polite word. Ikesaka knew very well that even if there were any problems, the selection meeting would end.
Chisaka raised his head, cleared his throat, and was about to say the word "end", his eyes glanced into the room and suddenly widened a little.
In an instant, a very sudden hand was raised.
It seemed like a vigorous pine tree suddenly popped up between the flat ground. Compared with those who were applauding, the raised hand seemed a bit outstanding.
The young male lawyer in the room had an unpredictable smile on his face, as if he was about to play a game.
When Danyu saw the raised hand, she found that it was the plaintiff's lawyer in the Terai case who raised his hand. She felt a sense of joy inexplicably and immediately let out a soft "splash" chuckling. Danyu seemed to see herself. She was also the person who stubbornly wanted to raise her hand on similar occasions. At this time, as a bystander, her mentality inevitably changed.
"Lawyer Kitahara, what's your problem?" Ikesaka frowned and said.
"I have no problem." Kitahara smiled. He looked at the group litigation registrant of another Shinjuku District Local Court on the stage and said: "It's just that now I am on behalf of my client, Terai, to the Shinjuku District Local Court for the removal registration of group litigation. I request the magistrate to withdraw the name of my client, Terai."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! [Registration for Group Litigation Exit]
[The so-called group litigation delisting registration means that members who have participated in group litigation apply to the court for delisting, refuse to participate in group litigation, and choose to exercise their litigation rights by taking separate lawsuits.]
As soon as he finished speaking, most of the lawyers present changed their faces. They actually chose to remove the list and filed a lawsuit separately?! The case of Teraisui suing Kawamoto Expressway initiated by Kitahara is the earliest case. If Kitahara chooses to remove the list, then the case will be resumed.
As the case to be tried the fastest, the verdict will be released as soon as possible.
Although Kitahara's case is no longer a group litigation. As the case with the fastest result, it will undoubtedly play an extremely reference role in the subsequent group litigation trial.
In other words, if Kitahara chooses to remove the group lawsuit and continue the lawsuit in Terai'i case, it is very likely that his case alone will determine the result of the group lawsuit in the next tens of thousands of people!
"Baiyuan Lawyer, I hope you take the overall situation into consideration." Chi Shang's two eyebrows frowned deeper, and he said with a little raised his voice.
The sound on the pond was like throwing a cup as a sign, and a sound suddenly sounded in the house.
"Yes, take the overall situation into consideration."
"Keiyuan Lawyer. You are still too young after all."
“It’s too risky to sue separately.”
“In such a major lawsuit, we do need more experienced lawyers.”
The senior lawyers present were actually already very talented. Seeing the voting result, everyone vaguely guessed what was going on. However, the elites obviously did not want to offend Nishimura Law Firm and Sakai Law Firm, which are well-known in the industry. Seeing Ikesaka's reaction, these senior lawyers agreed.
Since you can't grab the meat to eat.
Maybe after getting along well, there is still soup to drink.
"Baiyuan lawyer, you cannot only consider getting your interests, but also considering everyone's interests."
Gradually, the voice of echoing became accusation.
Miyagawa next to her opened her mouth slightly. She obviously didn't expect Kitahara beside her to raise her hand directly, and she didn't expect him to file for withdrawal from the group lawsuit. However, seeing the numerous accusations in the room, Miyagawa also shook his mind in an instant. At this moment, she seemed to feel the absurdity of this world.
She and Kitahara worked hard to get busy with the Sei case.
Without Kitahara's efforts, perhaps Terai's case had long been rejected by the Shinjuku District Local Court.
The figure who fought hard in court.
The first figure who was the first to initiate a group lawsuit is accused of harming everyone's interests at this moment.
"Everyone's interests?" Kitahara suddenly sneered.
It seemed that I didn't expect this young man to sneer so bluntly, and the entire conference room suddenly became quiet.
"If what is written here is not a lawyer selection meeting, listening to everyone's accusations just now, I thought I had walked into a primitive tribe." Kitano scratched his ears, "Everyone's interests, everyone's interests. My parties exercised the right to name according to the rights granted by the law, but they would say that it was harming everyone's interests."
"I'm still living in the barbaric shogunate era and implementing the cruel law of joint seats? Yes, yes. As long as my neighbors are still hungry, I can't eat my own meal. As long as there are still people in this world who don't wear sweaters, I have to continue naked. As long as there are still people in this world who can't afford to live in a house, I have to contribute my house. For everyone's interests, I keep saying people for everyone's interests, but in the end I'm wearing the most expensive suit and smoking the most expensive cigar."
"In modern times, our country abolished the brutal joint-selective system of the Shogunate era. Under the principle of rule of law, everyone is only responsible for their own actions, not for the behavior of others. As long as a person does not violate the law, he can do what he wants. This is why the Civil Code regards the autonomy of the parties as the highest legal principle. Everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness."
"You can only choose to bear your own life!"
"You can only fight for your own interests!"
"You can only bear your own pain!"
"Everyone is only responsible for his own actions, not for others' lives! This is the greatest legal progress since the shogunate era of our country!"
"If you think it is improper for me to exercise the right of Group Litigation on behalf of Terai, then please find the legal basis to prevent my rights from being exercised. As Terai's attorney, I will only serve the interests of my clients. If you want to fight for your clients, then you will fight yourself! My client Terai does not need to bear your interests and demands!"
Kitahara took a step forward, ignoring the face on the stage, Ikegami, whose face had become extremely ugly, and whispered: "This lawyer is now officially filing with the Shinjuku District Local Court! I apply to remove my client Terai Hui from the group litigation list and withdraw from the group litigation! Continue the litigation procedure of the original Terai Wang v. Kawamoto Expressway case!"
"Click!" A reporter sitting behind was stunned by this scene. A pen slid down to the ground, making a crisp sound. The first person to initiate a group lawsuit actually chose to withdraw from the group lawsuit. This turning point came too suddenly, so that his expression was completely stiff and he couldn't believe it.
Ikesaka was completely stunned. He had never expected that a young man would dare to speak loudly on such occasions. This was beyond his imagination. All the people sitting here were veterans in the legal field. Isn’t this kid afraid of ruining his legal future?!
Kitahara Yoshiichi! Ikegaki's facial expression was twitching slightly. At this moment, he tried his best to control his facial muscles. His teeth made some slight "click, click" rubbing sounds because of his hard biting. He was going to write down the young man's name completely today!
The litigation registrant of the court group next to him also showed an incredible expression, but he had to record the lawyer's request for Tu Ming...
...
That night, news stations from all over the country quickly reported that Naii lawyers chose to withdraw from the group litigation. In past group litigation, there were also people who chose to withdraw from the group litigation and filed separate lawsuits. However, these people often lag behind the process of group litigation. That is, these people who filed independent lawsuits will eventually be restricted by the group litigation judgment results.
However, in the Kawamoto Expressway, Kitahara took the lead in taking legal action against expressway companies.
Therefore, the case of Terai suing Kawamoto Expressway will soon be beyond the process of group litigation.
In other words, the lawsuits of Kawamoto Expressway Group will be bound by the judgment of the Terai case.
Nishimura Law Firm and Sakai Law Firm, which undertake the group lawsuit, have to stop and watch the movements of the Terai Ichi case.
A huge group lawsuit is now subject to a separate prosecution case.
As Kitahara chose to withdraw from the group lawsuit, the Shinjuku District Local Court once again initiated the trial procedure for the Terai Ichi case.
The entire Eastern legal community is focused on this young man called "Keiyuan", who is only in his twenties...
His case will largely determine the outcome of the next lawsuit by tens of thousands of people...
...
At the same time, newspapers and magazines gradually appeared in various parts of the East, accusing the plaintiff lawyers of the Teraisui case, who were ignoring everyone's interests and selfishness. Some newspapers and magazines found out the facts that the North had a business mistake and owed 500 million yuan, and used a captivating title to distort the facts. A large number of public opinion questioned Kitahara's professional level and personal motivation to choose to withdraw from the group's lawsuit. Suddenly, a storm was about to come...
