"Sir," Liu Niang interrupted Ma Si, "My father left a will, and it is most in line with the law to follow the will."
Miss Lin had told her that the law came first, and Ma Si had to be willing no matter how unwilling he was. As long as she agreed on the will, Ma Si could not do anything to her.
Magistrate Guo is a veteran. He knows what Ma Si is thinking, and he also knows that Ma Si is not convinced about this matter.
But what if you are not convinced?
County Magistrate Guo took a photo of the prisoner and said, "This case has been decided. Ma Liu Niang v. Ma Si Yi. Within three days, Ma Si will deed the four properties mentioned in Ma Daqiang's estate to Ma Liu Niang. Once the announcement was posted,
, it will take effect.”
The case is settled.
Ma Si was dejected. He was extremely unwilling to give up the fat duck he had obtained.
The trial of this case was concluded. Lin Zhongchun did not leave even a step from beginning to end, watching the whole process.
After County Magistrate Guo stood up and left, she walked over to Ma Liu Niang.
"Thank you, Miss Lin." She bowed to Lin Zhongchun, and her already red eyes immediately shed tears.
She knew that if she went to court without Miss Lin's help, she would be frightened into silence by her brother.
She hadn't read many books, she didn't have the courage to go to court with her brother, and it was impossible to tell those truths, so she only knew how to be anxious.
Thanks to Miss Lin who helped her handle these matters and wrote a complaint for her, she was able to get the inheritance left by her father from her brother and send her children to school.
My gratitude is beyond words.
Lin Zhongchun smiled at her and stretched out his hand to help her straighten up: "It can be considered that I got what I wanted."
There is still a sense of accomplishment.
Lin Zhongchun thought that she seemed to understand the meaning of her coming here and was more certain about her future goals.
By perfecting Dajing's laws, she will allow the people to receive the preferential treatment of the laws.
Lin Zhongchun felt that she had gained a lot from this trip. Whether it was Ma Liu Niang's courageous speech in the court or Magistrate Guo's handling of the case, she had different feelings.
At first, she thought that Ma Liuniang's case was a sure thing, but Ma Si's naughty attitude surprised her. Fortunately, things did not deviate from the expected direction in the end, so it was a good ending.
Although the case was simple, the trial was smooth, and it ended quickly, it was a good experience for Lin Zhongchun.
This is the first time since she came to this world that she has used her own way to help others participate in a court trial, even though it was by writing a complaint.
Although in the original dynasty, she also used her professional knowledge to help clients in need by accepting entrustments, but in this society, the general understanding of the law is low, and her relief is even more needed.
"How's your case going?" Master Shen didn't know when he came and sat down next to Lin Zhongchun. He had a simple meal today, which was vegetables and tofu, and nothing else.
After she had been trained before, she came to him to ask for leave, saying that she had helped a woman write a complaint and that she had to go to court for trial.
Although I was surprised, I felt it was natural.
A tiger father has no dogs, so she should be as outstanding as her father.
I came home late last night and it should have been resolved.
Lin Zhongchun nodded to him, "Hello, Mr. Shen."
The college's cafeteria is shared by teachers and students, so it's not surprising to see Master Shen here.
"The case went very smoothly, and I gained a lot." Lin Zhongchun told what happened yesterday when he saw Ma Luniang's case. "I have checked the Dajing law before, and there are still some loopholes in the will regulations. Because of local regulations and
The Dajing law is slightly inconsistent. Local regulations are more detailed, while the Dajing law has broader provisions. Therefore, when comparing cases with laws and regulations, you will face the possibility of losing the case."
Master Shen nodded. He has the courage to practice, dare to challenge, be bold and meticulous, that’s good.
He put down his chopsticks and said, "What about?"
Lin Zhongchun: "Take my case yesterday as an example. Ma Daqiang made a will before his death and asked Li Zheng to do the notarization, but Ma Si was still confident. If Ma Liu Niang hadn't sued the government, I'm afraid she wouldn't have been able to get back what was hers.
According to Ma Si's level of rogue, if he cheats, can County Magistrate Guo restrain him? Under the restrictions of Dajing Law and Jinducheng local regulations, if Ma Si finds a lawsuit, I am afraid Liu Niang will
Lost the case."
The Dajing Law stipulates that if there is a will, the will shall be followed, and if there is no will, the inheritance shall be based on the primogeniture system.
However, the local regulations of Jindu City follow the primogeniture system and have no provisions regarding testamentary inheritance.
If local regulations conflict with the Dajing Law, the Dajing Law shall prevail. However, this does not mean that the local regulations cannot be used in this case, let alone that this is not a conflict of regulations.
Fortunately, County Magistrate Guo applied the system of inheritance designated by will, and Ma Liu Niang was able to get her inheritance share of the six acres of land.
"Why can't we win?" This little girl has a very comprehensive view of the problem. He actually went to see yesterday's case, but only the first half and not the second half.
Just like what Lin Zhongchun said, if Ma Si hired a litigator, when Ma Liuniang was penniless and Lin Zhongchun was not an official litigator, he could only do it in a hurry.
Master Shen analyzed it carefully for Lin Zhongchun: "As you said, you wrote a complaint for Ma Luniang before suing the official, and then used official methods to collect evidence for her. Finally, it was the rhetoric you taught Ma Luniang. Why?
Do you think you have no chance of winning?"
Lin Zhongchun lowered his head and looked at the food in the bowl: "Master, is it true that a woman cannot go to court as a litigator?"
"What do you think?" Master Shen threw the question to Lin Zhongchun. She picked up her chopsticks, picked up a piece of white tofu and brought it to her mouth. "No matter which answer I give you, you have your own answer. My answer is not
What's important is yours, isn't it? Moreover, whether you can go to court or not will have any impact on whether you can participate in the litigation process of the case? Didn't you handle Ma Luniang's case very well? "
"But I want to be an excellent female lawyer, a female lawyer who stands in court."
Yes, she has the answer in her heart.
She felt that women could stand in court as litigants, just like men, instead of just writing pleadings and standing outside the courtroom watching male litigants argue for the clients.
A woman's status is a limitation, her career is not.
In modern times, both men and women have the opportunity to participate in court trials and defend their clients in order to obtain legal fairness.
And although this is not the era I lived in before, it doesn't mean that women can't be like men.
Lin Zhongchun understood the meaning of what the Master said, and a smile appeared on her face: "Master, I will work hard to become a qualified female lawyer, just like Mr. Tang Mingyuan, become the most powerful lawyer and write the best complaint!
"
"Will do."
You will, like your father, challenge the impossible and then become impossible.
