The next day, Lu Beicen followed Yue Changhong's instructions and went to the Quhu District People's Court.
The Quhu District People's Court is located in a residential area in the old city. It is integrated with the nearby residential buildings that are perfectly built. The tallest building in the entire court is only five floors. From the trial court in the front to the enforcement bureau in the back, all
It has seven twists and turns, and it is not an exaggeration to use a winding path to lead to a quiet place.
Because Vice-President Yuan has many years of cooperation with Yue Changhong and has always attached great importance to publicity, he is also a correspondent for many newspapers. Even in the position of Vice-President, he still writes non-stop and publishes three or four publications a year.
Ten manuscripts expressed great enthusiasm for Lu Beicen's arrival, and specifically asked the director of the research office to take Lu Beicen around in various courts to see if there were any cases worthy of publicity and reporting.
The director of the research office is named Wang. He wears glasses and is in his thirties. His speech and behavior reflect good legal literacy. When Vice President Yuan introduced him, his tone was full of pride. This director Wang is
A graduate of Southwest Political Science and Law, he turned out to be a judge in the criminal court. He was obedient and should be one of the young judges trained by the court.
After Lu Beicen absorbed this information, he immediately understood that the Quhu District Court should indeed make more visits. After all, Director Wang must also hope to make some achievements in his current position.
Under the guidance of Director Wang, Lu Beicen soon learned about a relatively controversial case from Judge Lei of the First Civil Court.
The case was not complicated. It was just compensation for a traffic accident. However, the plaintiff, that is, the victim, in addition to the injured person, also filed a lawsuit, demanding that the accident-causing party compensate for his "right to sexual happiness."
In other words, the traffic accident victim in this case lost his male function.
Lu Beicen followed the principle of asking questions when he didn't understand anything and asked directly: "President Lei, has this type of case never happened before?"
Judge Lei was a middle-aged woman who looked very capable. Faced with Lu Beicen's question, she explained very patiently: "There is currently no such thing in our province. I also checked some information and only saw a similar one in the south.
case, but not quite the same.”
"Then what do you think about it?"
"I tend to compensate for mental damages because there is a direct causal relationship."
Hearing what Judge Lei said, Director Wang took over the topic with a smile: "President Lei, your thinking is very new. Director Lu, Lei Ting is the first judge in our province to conduct live broadcasts of court sessions. He is also very professional and capable.
It is strong and the thinking is new. Such a case will definitely be controversial at present, which requires the judge to dare to judge. Lei Ting is worth learning from this point."
"Don't come here, you won't make other reporters laugh. We, our own people, are making fun of our own people." It is obvious that Judge Lei and Director Wang have a good relationship on weekdays, and they talk more casually.
Lu Beicen quickly smiled and said: "Such a new case is certainly worth reporting, but I don't know if this case has been in court now?"
Judge Lei shook his head: "Not yet. I invited lawyers from both sides to negotiate once. If the negotiation fails, the trial should start soon."
"Then what does the defendant's lawyer argue?"
"They have no objection to the compensation of the victim of the car accident, but they do not agree with the compensation of his wife. They feel that the victim's marital life and relationship are affected by many factors. Male dysfunction caused by the car accident
The mental damage caused to the victim's wife cannot be determined."
"Is this victim's male dysfunction definitely caused by the car accident?"
"There is already a forensic certificate on this, and the defendant has no objection to this."
Lu Beicen nodded and asked worriedly: "Because this case involves the privacy of the parties involved, I don't know if they will accept our filming and interview in court."
Judge Lei said with a smile: "Based on my current understanding and judgment, the parties involved in the accident should not be present in court. Lawyers will represent them in court. As long as you remove the part involving the parties' information, there should be no big problem."
"Why I think this is worth filming is because this case is relatively new, even from our system, it is rare and deserves reporting. Of course, you can also invite some legal experts and scholars to discuss it."
"Thank you, President Lei. President Lei understands the needs of our media very well. However, since it is a new thing, if experts and scholars put forward different opinions, will it cause trouble to your work?" Lu Bei
Cen thought for a while and expressed his worries.
Judge Lei shook his head: "What does that matter? I hope you will broadcast the interview as soon as possible. We can't handle the case behind closed doors. We have experts and scholars to discuss it together. No matter what the result is, as long as it makes sense and has legal basis."
, we should humbly accept it, and it is best to broadcast it within the statute of limitations for appeal, so that it will be convenient for both parties to decide whether to appeal."
Lu Beicen immediately admired Judge Lei even more. It is really surprising to know that such a judge has to handle countless cases a year and is not afraid of trouble and is willing to handle cases with such an open mind.
I have to admire it.
Most judges are unwilling to accept interviews, especially filming during court sessions. On the one hand, they consider that it will increase their workload, and more importantly, they do not want to cause extraneous matters and cause trouble.
"President Lei can be said to be very open-minded. Well, I'll go back and apply for the topic first. If the topic is approved, I will contact you. When the time comes, you will confirm the court date. Please inform me in advance." Lu Beicen
After exchanging contact information with Director Lei, I followed Director Wang out of the civil court.
It rained heavily the night before. Lu Beicen followed Director Wang and passed through a "water curtain cave" before arriving at the executive bureau.
Here, Lu Beicen heard about another case that gave Director Sun of the Executive Bureau a headache.
"Every time the person subject to execution came to see her, she said she would jump off the building. However, her mother and daughter were in special circumstances. We went to the house many times to do the work and invited community staff to coordinate, but we could not find anyone.
Good idea."
Director Sun shook his head while holding a large water cup full of tea stains, and continued: "See if you can help with the work."
It has been almost two months since Lu Beicen came to the "Live Witness" column, and he has also learned about some situations. Sometimes, whether in judgment or execution, the court always has many restrictions on objective conditions, which prevents the case from being judged or executed as scheduled, such as
The case that Chen Fang mentioned earlier was like this. Even if the judge made the decision under pressure, it would still be very difficult to implement it.
"Director Sun, can I first understand the basic situation of the case?"
"Okay, it's a bit complicated to say. I have the judgment here. You can read it first. If you don't understand anything after reading it, come and ask me." After Judge Sun finished speaking, he placed a pile of materials on his desk.
After rummaging around, he found a judgment and handed it to Lu Beicen.
Lu Beicen was not polite, took the verdict and began to read it.
This is an inheritance dispute, a real estate dispute to be precise.
The defendant, Ms. Ying, and her fifteen-year-old daughter, Xiao Xiong, lived in a renovated house in the downtown area. This renovated house was jointly raised by Ms. Ying and her husband, Mr. Xiong, who had passed away many years ago, using Mr. Xiong’s parents’ money.
The points bought a renovated house in their unit.
Because the points of Mr. Xiong’s parents were used, even though Ms. Ying and Mr. Xiong contributed the money, they could only apply for the real estate certificate in the names of Mr. Xiong’s parents.
In the past, everyone's awareness of personal property was relatively weak. In addition, Mr. Xiong and Ms. Ying jointly funded the purchase of this property, which is a fact recognized by everyone in the Xiong family. Moreover, Ms. Ying herself has not read many books, let alone this aspect.
consciousness.
Later, first Old Xiong passed away, and then Mr. Xiong passed away due to a serious illness, leaving Ms. Ying to raise her daughter, Little Xiong, alone.
Two years ago, the mother and sister of the late Mr. Xiong filed a lawsuit against Ms. Ying and Xiao Xiong. The plaintiff proposed that if Ms. Ying could compensate them with a house price equal to the market price, the house would be transferred directly.
Give it to her. If she can't, she should move out of the property and the plaintiff should give them the corresponding money.
Lu Beicen took a cursory look and found that the inheritance relationship and the property ratio of the plaintiff and defendant were really complicated to calculate.
According to the real estate certificate, the property is jointly owned by Mr. and Mrs. Lao Xiong. After Lao Xiong’s death, one-half of the property owned by his wife, Grandma Wang, will be put aside first, and the remaining one-half will be divided between Grandma Wang, Mr. Xiong, and Ms. Xiong according to the inheritance law.
Three people inherit jointly, that is, each person can get one-sixth.
After Mr. Xiong passed away, his inheritance share was jointly inherited by Grandma Wang, Ms. Ying and Xiao Xiong. Each person's share was one-eighteenth, so what Ms. Ying and Xiao Xiong had in this house
The share is only one-ninth.
Although Ms. Ying and Xiao Xiong only occupied one-ninth of the share, they have always lived in this house. After reading the verdict, Lu Beicen secretly sympathized with Ms. Ying, and did not understand why she and her mother-in-law and sister-in-law
Their relationship has become so tense. No matter what, there is still a daughter. This is also the blood of the Xiong family. The child has not grown up yet. As an aunt and grandmother, it is hard to be so ruthless, right?
Lu Beicen thought for a moment, and then asked about what was mentioned in the judgment: "Director Sun, do the grandmother and aunt agree that the house was purchased jointly by Ms. Ying and Mr. Xiong?"
Director Sun nodded: "I agree. I also asked the presiding judge and he said that in order to buy this house, the defendant borrowed a lot of money from the woman's relatives, which the couple later paid back slowly.
But our court only decides cases based on legal facts. From a legal point of view, this house is the property in the name of the old couple. The sister-in-law said that if it weren’t for their parents’ points, the couple would not have purchased the house.
If I’m not qualified, I can’t buy this house.”
"Then they haven't signed any agreement before?" Lu Beicen thought for a while and asked.
I originally wanted to write about a social case today, but after communicating with the editor, I was resolutely stopped. I dare not touch the red line of 404, so I can only write about individual cases. It is a pity, it is a pity, all social incidents
I can't write it, so this article needs to be reduced to at least 200,000 words...
