Chapter 208 The war begins(1/2)
2:25 p.m., Tokyo High Court, Courtroom No. 607.
The entire court audience is already at their seats. The clerk has also been prepared, and many documents and copies have been prepared and placed on the stenography table in the middle. The attorneys for the three parties to the case are also sitting in their respective seats. Gu Mei
Men still had a leisurely look, with his legs crossed, gently rocking the chair from side to side, and raising his chin. There was no nervousness on his face as the case was about to go to trial. But Bei Yuan, who was on the other side of the plaintiff's seat, looked carefree.
He was sitting lazily, leaning on the back of the chair in the courtroom, with that lazy look, as if there was a luxurious and comfortable super massage chair underneath him.
Shimada was sitting in the auditorium, his face slightly pale, his hands holding the phone tightly, and his breathing gradually became heavier. The tension in his heart was stretched to the extreme, like a string that had been stretched to the limit by the rotating shaft.
As long as a little more force is applied, the entire string will break completely.
In the afternoon, Shimada finally decided to take a gamble.
He didn't even know why he made this decision.
This was a decision that would completely change the direction of his life. However, when he decided to do this, his mind went blank. He had honed his computing skills during the long-term personnel struggle in the bank, but at the moment he made the decision, he was thrown away.
behind the head.
At that moment, what drove me was a hidden desire that was deeply buried in my heart that I was not even aware of.
Shimada picked up the phone, pressed the side button next to it, and checked the floating text message window on the phone.
The light emitted by the mobile phone reflected the vice president's face, and the mirror of the screen faintly outlined his face. His eyes were already bloodshot, his eye sockets were swollen from staying up late, and his messy bangs were skewed in all directions.
On the screen was a cold bank reminder text message.
Half an hour ago, the second installment of the payment from Takahashi Legal Affairs Consulting Club was received. Now Shimada's total debt has reached 30.64 million yen. This has swallowed up all the savings he had worked hard for in Tokyo.
.
Now he is no longer the vice president of a prominent bank in the financial world, but a desperado who has bet everything.
His entire fate will be tied to this lawsuit.
The phone at the stenography desk in the middle of the courtroom rang, and the clerk picked up the phone. Then, there was a ceremony to wait for the judge, and everyone in the courtroom stood up. The seven magistrates, dressed in black robes and holding the power of the world, slowly entered the courtroom.
After receiving the clerk's approval, everyone sat down and showed their respect.
"Click!"
The crisp sound of the gavel was heard.
Judge Eda sat up slightly, raised his voice, and announced on the bench: "Takai v. Akagi Hotel Group, Tokugawa Keiji's case of excluding nuisance disputes, the trial has begun!"
However, as the order for the court session was issued.
Everyone's eyes fell on the chief referee in the middle, who was only in his thirties. Everyone was paying attention to whether the court would make a decision on the plaintiff's right that was pending in the morning. After all, from this young to extremely young judge,
What kind of decision will come from the mouth of the High Court judge.
Miyagawa was on the plaintiff's bench, her hands already clenching the hem of her brown skirt unconsciously. She was afraid of hearing the decision to dismiss the case. At this moment, her beautiful face only dared to lower her head slightly, not daring to face the person on the trial bench directly.
Dear judges.
However, the world is always full of surprises.
Often in conflict with people's ideas.
The more you want to know something, the world just keeps you from knowing it. The great scientists who struggled to pursue the laws of physics finally converted to religion. The believers of the religion searched all over the world, but they could not see the miracle with their own eyes.
happened. The desire of mortals to seek knowledge can only make the gods laugh.
Judge Eda looked around the court and continued expressionlessly, "Now, let's enter the court investigation phase. During the court investigation phase, both parties will submit evidence to the court and conduct evidence and cross-examination."
The big names at the trial seemed to deliberately fight against the curiosity of the listeners, keeping the answers in their hearts secret and burying them until the final stage of the play, when they planned to lift the curtain and let the audience see the true face. Listen.
When the reporters saw that the judge did not announce a decision, many people expressed great disappointment. However, they immediately discovered that this decision would prolong the show for a while, and they couldn't help but start to feel happy again, hoping that in the future
In the following trial, we can see more things that are used as talking points.
Upon hearing the announcement of the start of the court investigation, Kitahara turned his chair slightly and smiled at Miyagawa next to him, "It's your job to provide evidence. Just read out the documents for me."
Miyagawa nodded slightly, took a few pieces of paper, and stood up.
She took a deep breath and quickly calmed down her emotions. This new lawyer who used to feel panicked in court has gradually begun to control her emotions.
Miyagawa looked firmly at the trial seat, and spoke at an unhurried and appropriate speed: "The evidence submitted by the plaintiff Takai in this case consists of a set of five pieces of evidence. The first one
The evidence is the real estate title certificate No. A58233507."
Miyagawa displayed a copy of the real estate certificate, "This evidence proves that the plaintiff Takai owns the ownership of the above-ground buildings on the land involved in the case and is qualified to file a lawsuit to eliminate nuisance."
"The second piece of evidence is a land boundary survey map. The survey map was drawn by Hengliang Surveying and Mapping Co., Ltd., a third-party company commissioned by the Land Registry. The land boundary survey map clearly indicates that a building named General Hotel has pillars
It has crossed the land boundary and invaded two square meters of land No. A568013. The on-site survey personnel unanimously have no objection to this conclusion. At the same time, the measurement method and on-site photos are stated after the land boundary survey map."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "The third piece of evidence is the directory of forensic appraisal institutions. Among them, Hengliang Surveying and Mapping Co., Ltd. is an institution recognized by the list of forensic appraisal institutions in Shinjuku City. In view of the above
The behavior of crossing the boundary was discovered during the execution of the case between Takai and Aobadai Apartment concerning the dispute over the right of way of neighboring land. Therefore, as a land surveying and mapping company participating in the execution of the judgment, it should have the corresponding qualifications and be a third-party company recognized by the judicial authority. The above-mentioned plaintiff
The produced list of judicial appraisal agencies shows that Hengliang Surveying and Mapping Co., Ltd. is qualified to participate in land boundary surveying during the execution of judgments."
Then, Miyagawa continued to pick up a booklet from the table slowly and unhurriedly. However, he saw that the upper right corner of the booklet was sealed with exquisite red wax, a fine hole was punched out, and a delicate red rope came out from between the fine holes.
He passed through and tied the entire volume of documents tightly together. However, on the cover of this special volume, three huge Chinese characters were written - "Notarization".
Miyagawa showed the notarial certificate and said, "The fourth piece of evidence is the notarial certificate issued by the Shinjuku City Akihao Notary Office. The content of the notarized certificate is that on November 13, Hengliang Surveying and Mapping Co., Ltd.
Surveying activities. Among them, the Qiuhao Notary Office notarized the land boundary survey map drawn by Hengliang Surveying and Mapping Co., Ltd. to prove that the survey activity actually occurred and that there was no forgery or tampering with the land boundary survey map. At the same time, it also notarized the fact that the large pillars on site occupied the land.
status, it was notarized. The notarization confirms the authenticity of the land boundary survey map and the accuracy of its description of the site content on that day."
"The fifth piece of evidence is the property rights status of real estate No. A68200508 obtained by the agent from the Construction Bureau. The property rights status clearly indicates that the ownership of the building named Shogun Hotel involved in the case belongs to Akagi Hotel Group and Tokugawa
Keiji jointly owns it. Among them, Akagi Hotel Group holds 65% of the property rights, and Tokugawa Keiji holds 35% of the property rights. This evidence proves that the building that occupied Takai’s land is owned by the first and second defendants.”
"The above five pieces of evidence prove that the Shogun Hotel, jointly owned by the first defendant, Akagi Hotel Group, and the second defendant, Tokugawa Keiji, has crossed the boundary and infringed upon the real estate rights of the plaintiff Takai. Therefore, Takai now files a lawsuit against the first and second defendants to eliminate the nuisance.
The lawsuit requires the two defendants to dismantle the large pillars occupying the land of Gaojing!"
In an instant, Miyagawa finished presenting the evidence in one breath.
The plaintiff submitted very little evidence.
There are only five pieces.
Get rid of the notarial deeds with lots of formatting.
The remaining four pieces of evidence occupy less than 10 pieces of A4 paper in total, which is unusually thin.
However, the weight of this piece of evidence is sufficient. And the different pieces of evidence fit together extremely closely.
The list of judicial appraisal institutions presented by the plaintiff's lawyer blocked the opposing lawyer's attack path on whether the land surveying and mapping company has the corresponding qualifications. If the plaintiff's lawyer had not produced this list of forensic appraisal institutions, the citizens in the auditorium might not even have imagined that the land surveying and mapping company could obtain the appropriate qualifications.
The validity of land boundary maps is attacked from the perspective of the qualifications of land surveying and mapping agencies.
The notarial certificate proved the authenticity of the surveying and mapping activities, and proved that the relevant surveying and mapping activities were carried out legally and in compliance with the regulations. For a while, in addition to proving the on-site situation of the infringement of the pillars on site, it also blocked the other party's lawyer regarding the land.
The perspective of questioning whether the surveying and mapping activities are real and carried out legally.
The plaintiff's lawyer is obviously very thoughtful.
Although these evidences prepared by Beiyuan were simple, they were like an airtight dragnet falling from the sky and tightly binding the towering General Hotel.
Shimada was secretly happy as he listened to the plaintiff's lawyer's evidence, with a sickly and wanton smile on his face. Even though he didn't understand the law, he could still tell that this evidence not only proved the General Hotel's infringement
, incidentally also blocked the opponent's offensive methods.
This piece of evidence is simply impeccable and can be called a mountain of ironclad evidence.
If you were a judge, you would literally have to raise your gavel and make a judgment on the spot.
The 500 million yen in Dongshan Club's letter of credit will finally be secured.
This case is really like what Kitahara said, it is really impeccable. He didn’t lie to me! He didn’t lie to me! Shimada’s heart has begun to get excited, and his whole body is shaking slightly, as if 500 million yen has already entered at this moment.
on your own account.
Listening to the nearly impeccable evidence presented by the lawyer on the other side, Machiko's face turned a little pale. After taking on this case, she also helped Gu Meimen come up with two ideas to counter the opponent, one of which was to question the authenticity of the surveying and mapping activities.
nature, as well as the qualification issues of surveying and mapping companies.
However, at this moment, both paths have been blocked by the other party.
As for the documents prepared by Komemon himself, Machiko couldn't see them. The only thing she knew was Komemon's strategy of adding a third person. At this moment, she could no longer imagine that the lawyer beside her with a 100% winning rate could still come up with something
What evidence can be used to refute the other party?
In the court, after seeing the other party's almost watertight evidence, Gu Meimen still smiled lightly. He turned his head and looked at the trial seat, "Chief Judge. I'm a little sorry. Because the relevant real estate data involved in this case are of different ages.
For a long time, the defendant has been working hard to find and strive to submit it within the time limit for producing evidence. However, unfortunately, the Akagi Hotel Group spent a lot of time and still could not find it within the time limit for producing evidence. However, the hard work paid off, and the defendant finally found it the day before the trial.
A lot of information was obtained, which is enough to clarify the grievances of Akagi Hotel Group and Tokugawa Keiji, who were accused of land infringement."
"However, as the defendant's evidence was not submitted to the court until today's hearing, the defendant's attorney expresses his deep apologies for the inconvenience caused to the trial."
The barrister lowered his head slightly. Although he had an apologetic look on his face and a sincere tone, the combination of the two made people feel that this was just a carefully designed performance.
However, Gu Meimen didn't care. Anyway, they had blatantly raided the evidence. In such a high-profile case, the court will be forced to spend more energy on substantive justice rather than procedures.
In terms of justice, as long as the evidence itself is objective and true, even if an evidence raid is conducted, the court will consider it in order to take into account the public's simple concept of justice.
Judge Eda frowned slightly when he saw the defendant's attorney raiding evidence like this, and said dissatisfied, "The period for producing evidence is a standard that must be followed in civil litigation activities. If you really can't find it, you should apply to the court to extend the period for producing evidence.
