Chapter 250 The court session: an unprecedented scene
Tai'an, Hengtian Hotel, in a certain room.
"Hey, my wife."
"Everything is fine here, but there are a lot of things. Don't worry, I will take good care of myself."
"Well, yes, yes, you can rest early, and wait until I finish this single, I will change your car..."
After Zhang Wei and his wife called, he stretched and sat back to the desk, preparing to continue working.
With his strong record and outstanding performance in the criminal private prosecution case of more than 2,000 defendants, Zhang Wei became the hottest lawyer in this group lawsuit. In just a few days, he had already won five.
More than a hundred customers.
No, it should be said that there are more than 500 God of Wealth!
After finishing this order, I got a few million yuan, which was enough to buy a house worth more than 100 square meters in a high-end community in Longcheng.
It's worth it to work hard!
Zhang Wei now wants to sort out the case, sort out the defense ideas, and prepare for the trial soon.
At this moment, he noticed the contents of the Weixin group chat.
This prestige group is owned by Zhang Weijian, and more than 500 members in it are all defendants in this criminal private prosecution case.
With such a group, it can also facilitate unified management and communicate with each other.
"Hey, have you heard that? Today a couple came to mediate with the surname Jiang. Not only did the mediation fail, but the two of them also entered the hospital and the other entered the bureau."
"Mist grass! That person surnamed Jiang really has such great energy? Can he hit people casually? Can he send people to the bureau?"
"It was true at the scene. The man was taken away by an ambulance, while the woman was leaving in a police car."
"It's so scary, it's so scary!"
“…”
After seeing the news, Zhang Wei shook his head with a smile.
This matter sounds outrageous, but it would be normal if it were Jiang Bai and Luo Dazhao.
No need to think about it, it must be the couple who made it themselves.
Zhang Wei glanced at him and prepared to quit the group chat and concentrate on his work.
However, at this moment, a new group chat message caught his attention.
"Everyone doesn't think about it. Why does the Jiang surnamed Jiang have to bear criminal responsibility for sending people into the hospital? They can still send people in casually! Is there any king's law? Is there any law? It's unbelievable that it's actually under the sunshine.
There will be such a dark thing! If there is no inside story here, I won’t believe it. Didn’t Lawyer Zhang say that this case is fine as long as the other party withdraws the lawsuit? I have an idea, can we expose this matter?
, attracted the attention of the relevant departments, and made it difficult for the Jiang surname to protect himself. Maybe he would not have to sue us!"
Fog grass!
Seeing this news, Zhang Wei's eyes widened.
Is such a stupid way possible?
The key is that many people think it makes sense.
"Hey, yes, this person named Jiang must be unclear. Maybe there are any bigger problems."
"I don't think it must be exposed. This matter can be used as a bargaining chip for negotiation. When we go to the other party, we will expose it if we say we don't withdraw the lawsuit. They must be afraid."
"I think it's very tortured, @Lawyer Zhang, what do you think?"
"@Lawyer Zhang, why don't you come forward on behalf of us to negotiate with the other party and force him to withdraw the lawsuit!"
“…”
Seeing this increasingly punishing group chat message.
Zhang Wei's face changed suddenly, and he felt a sense of fear.
If they really want to do things randomly, I am afraid that they will be implicated.
He quickly typed and said, "@Everyone, everyone must pay attention to the methods, do not expose the situation casually, do not threaten and intimidate, and do not use violence, and strictly abide by the law in everything. I will contact the other party for mediation, everyone must pay attention to the situation.
Don't mess around!"
"@Everyone, everyone must pay attention to the methods..."
"@Everyone, everyone must pay attention..."
Say important things three times.
As the saying goes, there are all kinds of forests when birds are big. There are more than 500 defendants, plus their respective families, and so many people, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be so many hutu eggs that are confused.
If they really did something stupid, Zhang Wei might be implicated.
He was also worried and sent three messages in a row to warn him.
Seeing that the group chat style that was gradually moving back to normal, Zhang Wei breathed a sigh of relief and devoted himself to his work.
...
"Lawyer Chen, you finally come to see me, where are my parents?"
"It's been so many days, why haven't the plaintiff been dealt with yet!"
"I want to go out, hurry up and take me out!"
Lin Meijia finally saw the lawyer and shouted excitedly.
Chen Mengzhe sighed and said slowly: "Miss Lin, you must be mentally prepared. What I want to say next may... be difficult for you to accept for a while."
"You, what do you mean?" Lin Meijia was suddenly nervous.
Chen Mengzhe said: "Your father, Mr. Lin, is injured and is recuperating in the hospital. He asked me to come back and help you get bail pending trial first."
"Your mother was detained administratively and faced public prosecution for assaulting police."
"As for mediation... it failed, the other party refused to withdraw the lawsuit."
"What?"
Lin Meijia's eyes suddenly widened and his head was buzzing.
These three simple sentences are no less than giving her three big pussy bags.
"How could this happen? Didn't they go to mediate? How could they be hospitalized and detained?"
Lin Meijia asked quickly.
Chen Mengzhe roughly explained the whole story.
After listening, Lin Meijia was silent.
He swallowed his saliva and asked in a trembling voice: "Lawyer Chen, then, does that mean I have to go to court?"
"Yes, mediation failed, so I can only wait for the trial to begin." Chen Mengzhe nodded.
"Lawyer Chen, save me, you must save me!"
"I'm still young, I'm still so beautiful, I don't want to go to jail!"
"Wuwu...save me...wuwuwu..."
Lin Meijia burst into tears.
At this moment, she truly felt despair and fear.
It turns out that parents are not omnipotent, and not all problems can be solved.
And not only did not solve the problem, but he got it himself.
Lin Meijia could only firmly grasp the life-saving straw in front of her.
"Miss Lin, don't worry, I will definitely try my best to defend you and strive for the greatest reduction in sentence..."
"What is the reduction of sentence? I don't want the reduction of sentence. What I want is innocent! Innocence!"
Lin Meijia immediately became anxious and slapped the table and shouted:
"I can't stay in this ghost place for a second, and I will never want to come back here again. You must make me innocent, you must!"
Chen Mengzhe said helplessly: "Miss Lin, I understand your situation, which is completely in line with the constituent elements of the crime of defamation, and the situation is relatively serious. I am bluntly frankly, innocent... almost impossible."
"Why is it impossible!"
"I didn't make any big mistakes. Didn't I just scold him online? At worst, I'll just delete it. He won't lose a piece of meat, do you think?"
Lin Meijia shouted anxiously.
Chen Mengzhe said angrily: "Miss Lin, you have just cursed a few words. This has risen to the level of personal attacks and personality insults."
"You not only insulted him, but also scolded his parents..."
"And the scope of dissemination is extremely wide, and it completely meets the standards for slander crimes. This is a foregone conclusion. There is no other way except for the other party to withdraw the lawsuit."
"But now that the mediation has failed, it is impossible to withdraw the lawsuit. I can only do my best to help you get a reduction in sentence."
Lin Meijia frowned and shouted in confusion: "Isn't this a normal thing to curse people online? Many people are like this. Why are they all okay? I'm just a crime!"
"The crime of defamation is a personal crime. If the party does not pursue the investigation, it will be fine. But if the party pursues the investigation... as long as the case is met and the evidence is prepared by itself, the court will generally accept it."
After listening to Chen Mengzhe's explanation, Lin Meijia immediately rubbed her hair in annoyance: "Why am I so unlucky... Others are fine, but I just encountered such a thing..."
Chen Mengzhe shook his head secretly.
Now that things have come to this point, Lin Meijia not only has no guilt at all, but he feels that he is right from beginning to end, but he is just unlucky.
Such people have no ordinary educational methods.
Only by truly letting her be punished by law may she wake up?
"This is just a swearing online, it doesn't hurt or itchy, is that a big deal?"
"If someone scolds me, I will only scold me at most. Why will I sue you?"
"And I was just angry for a moment. What that man did was really annoying..."
Lin Meijia was still quibbling.
I was completely unaware that I had violated the law.
Chen Mengzhe sighed and said seriously: "Miss Lin, maybe in your eyes, that's just a painless word."
"But have you ever thought that what the other side is right is the abuse of countless netizens and the overwhelming accusation."
"This is already a terrible online violence. The other party lost his job, his normal life was destroyed, and he also suffered huge psychological pressure."
"A piece of snowflakes is nothing, but if countless snowflakes gather together, it may form a terrible avalanche, enough to devour everything and destroy everything!"
"When the avalanche came, no snowflake was innocent."
"As a cyber-troubled person, don't you feel even a little guilty?"
The responsibility of a lawyer is to fight for rights and interests for his or her clients, and in fact, this should not be said.
But this time Chen Mengzhe really couldn't help it and couldn't vomit.
Faced with his questioning, a hint of unnatural flashed across Lin Meijia's face, but she quickly shouted with confidence: "Put it aside for us to scold him, isn't he okay?"
"Why don't we just scold others?"
"Flies don't bite seamless eggs...I'm not saying we are flies, he must find the reason from himself anyway."
Chen Mengzhe was speechless.
He found that he had done something stupid, that was to reason with Lin Meijia.
This girl has her own set of views on right and wrong and agrees deeply.
This concept has been deeply rooted in her heart, and it can't be changed in just a few words.
Let reality teach her a lesson...
Chen Mengzhe didn't say anything more, helped Lin Meijia get bail pending trial, and took her out of the detention center first.
"Miss Lin, the trial will be held in three days. I booked the air ticket the afternoon after tomorrow, and we will go to Tai'an in advance."
At the door of the detention center, Chen Mengzhe ordered.
"Oh, I know, you're so annoyed."
Lin Meijia waved her hand impatiently, took a taxi on the side of the road and left.
Seeing the taxi disappear from sight, Chen Mengzhe shook his head and sighed, feeling helpless.
...
at the same time.
In Tai'an First Detention Center.
It was the time for the air-opening event, and a group of people were wandering aimlessly on the playground. This scene was shot and added a filter to change to the underworld BGM, which could be directly used as a zombie movie promotional video.
"Rongrong, what did you think about what I told you?"
Xu Lan came to Zhao Rongrong and asked in a low voice.
"Mom, I am your child too. Can't you be a little fair to me!"
Zhao Rongrong's fists tightened and her face was complicated.
In the detention center, Xu Lan has been advised to take the blame for Kangxin by herself and not to implicate others.
"You are a girl, you will get married sooner or later. What kind of fairness do you want? If I hadn't been soft-hearted at the beginning, I might have given you away as soon as I was born!"
Xu Lan glanced at her and said in a cold tone: "But your younger brother is different. He wants to pass on the Zhao family's family!"
"He must not go to jail!"
"This matter has not been discussed. It is also a jail for a family to go to jail. It is also a jail for you to go to jail alone. There is no need to drag us all into the water, right?"
Zhao Rongrong laughed at herself and shook her head and said, "Why!? Why do you have to take responsibility for it!"
"From childhood to adulthood, you have all favored your younger brother. The delicious, fun, and new clothes are all his. When did you think about me!"
"I am also the remaining child of your ten months of pregnancy. I also called your mother, why did you treat me like this!"
Xu Lan hugged her arms and said with a blank expression: "You are so embarrassed to say that if you hadn't been pulling us, we wouldn't have done this. Speaking of which, this was your responsibility, and it was your duty to take it!"
"Oh, you're blaming me now. When you're dividing money, you're so ridiculous that you're happier than the other!"
"Stop talking nonsense. If you don't bear it, I will cut off the relationship between mother and daughter with you!"
"If you cut it off, just cut it off. I don't want a mother like you."
"What did you say? You rolled your eyes..."
The mother and daughter became more and more excited as they talked, and they were about to start a fight.
It was at this moment.
"Zhao Rongrong! There is a court summons here, come and sign for them."
A disciplinary came over and handed Zhao Rongrong a dark gray file bag.
The latter was stunned for a moment, took it and opened it to check.
The content of the subpoena was very simple. The trial was held three days later, and the case was caused by "online defamation".
"Jiang Chen, he actually sued me!"
Zhao Rongrong trembled with anger as she pinched the summons.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense, sign it up quickly." The discipline urged.
"Oh, OK..."
Zhao Rongrong slowly wrote down her name.
At this moment, her heart was broken.
He is facing public prosecution for suspected crimes of helping, fraud and infringing on citizens' personal information.
The court has not yet begun, and another crime of defamation has occurred!
Four charges...
Although Zhao Rongrong doesn't understand the law, she also knows that she must have a lot of trouble.
If the four charges are superimposed, how many years will it take to be sentenced to?
When Zhao Rongrong thought of this, she felt that her future was dark, even more desperate than when she was diagnosed!
"Rongrong, you see, you have so many crimes anyway, don't panic if you have too much debt, and don't itch if you have too much lice. Otherwise, you might as well bear the sin of helping you, and you say we were all deceived by you.
…”
Not only did Xu Lan not comfort her, she continued to persuade Zhao Rongrong to resist the crime.
"roll!"
Zhao Rongrong roared suddenly.
"What did you say?"
"I said, get out!"
"Why are you talking to your mother? Hey, don't leave, come back to me..."
...
Time passes slowly.
Finally, the day for the court session has come.
Early that morning, in front of the Wanbailin District People's Court of Tai'an City, the bustle became lively.
Egg-filled cakes, pancakes, fried dough sticks, sesame cakes, small buns...
Countless small vendors pushed breakfast trucks to occupy a good position around the court.
As the sun rose, the defendants, accompanied by their families, gathered towards the court uneasy.
The vendors all smiled and their mouths were almost grinning at the base of their ears.
The defendant and his family, as well as lawyers, court staff, and various melon-eating people and media workers, etc., the traffic of the court this morning was definitely more than 10,000!
This opportunity to make a fortune cannot be missed.
Lawyers from major law firms also arrived, holding signs, shouting horns, and calling their clients to gather.
The scene is extremely grand.
This is even more spectacular than the one in Longcheng.
9:30 am.
Jiang Bai's family, Jiang Chen's family, and Luo Dazhang also rushed to the court.
I was stunned by the scene in front of me.
Jiang Bai and Luo Dazhao are fine, but after all, they are experienced people and have been used to it for a long time.
It was the first time Jiang Chen and others had been doing this for the first time.
"This is more lively than when I was in the market..."
Jiang's mother sighed.
"Chenchen, are these people who scold us online?" Jiang Chen's mother Ge Mei swept around and asked in a low voice.
"Yes, it's them!" Jiang Chen nodded slowly and gritted his teeth and said, "How much hatred they scolded us at the beginning, how much regret they would be today!"
"These evil people will be retribution!"
Ge Mei's eyes were a little complicated.
These defendants and their families all look very ordinary people, and they don’t have that kind of viciousness. How come they say such vicious words on the Internet as if they were changed?
I really don't understand.
Several people walked into the court in a low-key manner and waited for the court to begin.
It's exactly ten o'clock in the morning.
Members of the collegial panel entered the first criminal trial court under the leadership of the judge.
The judge is a middle-aged man of about fifty years old and majestic face named Wang An.
He sat upright above the court, looking at the people in the court with a serious look, feeling quite complicated inside, and at the same time he felt a lot of pressure on his shoulders.
In this case, the number of defendants exceeded 3,000!
It is definitely an unprecedented super-large-scale lawsuit, which has attracted widespread attention from all walks of life.
How to make a judgment must be taken with caution, not too serious or too light, otherwise a carelessness may lead to serious social problems!
The Provincial High Court also attaches great importance to it. Not only do it pay close attention to this case, but also dispatched many elites from other courts to support and assist.
Otherwise, it would be a bit too busy to rely on the Intermediate People's Court of Wanbailin District alone.
