Chapter 66: The Court Now (2)
Seeing that Li Jianren did not apply for a secret trial, he was naturally happy to accept it. After all, in his opinion, in this case, the party he represents will definitely win, and his fame will be greater.
Shang Luoyu and Huang Yixi already knew the choice of their clients in advance, and they had no objections, and it seemed that everyone was sure that the lawyers of the four parties had chosen a litigation strategy that resonated with the people present at the same time.
"Does the party have any objection to the identity of the person appearing in court?
An application for recusal is not the same as an application for a closed trial, in that recusal excludes the relevant persons hearing the case, while whether the trial is open excludes persons unrelated to the trial of the case, such as observers. Not every case will be asked by the judge whether it is public, but recusal is required after each formal trial, which is a statutory trial procedure.
"Not applying. ”
"Did the defendant apply?"
"Not applying. ”
Since neither party has applied for the application, the following is a fact-finding in court, and the plaintiff will state his claims, facts and reasons. Judge Zhang continued.
First of all, the plaintiff's side, that is, the party represented by Li Jianren, will discuss the parties' claims and views.
Li Jianren opened the prepared materials and read them out in a low tone. There is only one demand, that is, all the property in Yan Jingnan's name is inherited by Ji Danhong and Xie Jianhao.
is basically the same as what is written in the complaint, that is, Xie Yongchen voluntarily wrote a will because of his true love and inability to give Ji Danhong a name, giving all the property in his name to Ji Danhong.
After that, it was the defendant's turn to state his reasons and opinions, and Shang Luoyu's reply on behalf of Li Yunru asked the court to reject Ji Danhong's litigation request, first divide the joint property of the husband and wife during their existence, and the estate will be inherited by Li Yunru and Xie Jianxiong in accordance with the will.
Lin Shufang's agent, Huang Yixi, requested the division of the joint property of the husband and wife that was not divided at the time of the divorce, and the estate was inherited by Li Yunru and Xie Jianxiong in accordance with the will.
To be honest, the three lawyers didn't take the three wills seriously, anyway, everyone asked for it.
If it is a simple or familiar case, there are no bystanders, and in order to save time, judges and lawyers will no longer read the complaint and the reply, but simply say, the same as the complaint (reply).
There are so many people today, the four lawyers can only read aggrievedly, Shang Luoyu and Huang Yixi and Li Jianren are okay, all three of them are young full-time university backgrounds, although they have a bit of Hokkien accent, but they are still standard Mandarin.
Chen Shuiqing was difficult, his old Mandarin was not standard, and his defense was very plain and straightforward, so he simply read it in Hokkien dialect in the end.
His defense was: The wills are all fake, the property is Chen Lihua's son Xie Yongchen, and it should be inherited by her and her three sons, these three women have a very bad character, and it is best for the grandson to be raised by her, and the property will be managed by her, and the grandson will be returned after marriage.
The audience burst into laughter, even people without legal expertise knew that this reply was neither legal nor reasonable, and was obviously responsible for being funny, and they didn't know how Chen Shuiqing compromised.
Contrary to the views of ordinary people, the judges and lawyers present all understand that no matter what, Xie Yongchen is Chen Lihua's only child, whether it is legal or humanitarian, there will be an inheritance for her to support for her for many years, so lawyer Chen Shuiqing wrote along the way, probably afraid that her difficulties would make her happy.
Compared with some lawyers who only show their professionalism according to the law, Chen Shuiqing's doing so is admirable.
Shang Luoyu knew that Chen Shuiqing was introduced by Huang Yixi, and secretly gave her a thumbs up.
Different people have different requirements and views on lawyers, the simplest example, the same contract prepared by the lawyer, some lawyers are sprinkled with enthusiasm, writing hundreds of pages of contract terms, some people are simple, less than a page of A4 paper, whose contract is useful?
In Huang Yixi's view, whether it is from the legal level, or the aspect of post-facto liability, or the status of both parties, whose contract is beneficial to her party, whose contract is useful.
Some lawyers pursue superficial forms and talk nonsense, and some lawyers have drafted all aspects and seem to be able to protect the interests of their clients, but they do not consider the actual situation of their clients, which is not conducive to their own parties.
It's like a saying, whether it's a good medicine or not, whoever uses it knows.
During the court investigation, Ji Danhong's agent presented a list of Xie Yongchen's property and evidence, that Mr. Xie Yongchen personally had cash and bank deposits of 4.71 million yuan, a villa, a number of high-end items, four suites, and 67 percent of the shares of Minyue Riyue Xingchen Real Estate Co., Ltd.
Xie Yongchen's autographed will, Xie Jianhao's paternity test, and four witness witnesses.
These four witnesses are all senior managers of the Minyue Provincial Riyue Xingchen Real Estate Co., Ltd., and they all testified that they had heard Xie Yongchen say on different occasions that he and Li Yunru had a prenuptial property agreement, saying that in addition to salary, Li Yunru would be given 2 million yuan a year, and that the other money had nothing to do with Li Yunru.
As soon as she heard this, Li Yunru's eyes were on fire, if the fire had substance, these four people should have been burned by this anger, but those four people avoided Li Yunru's eyes the whole time.
I don't know how many benefits Ji Danhong promised by wooing these four people, after all, these four people also understand that in this way, as long as the Sun, Moon and Xingchen Group falls into the hands of Li Yunru, the jobs of these four people will definitely not be saved, but maybe in the future, Li Jianren still has a labor contract dispute lawsuit to take over.
In the evidence, except for the self-written will, all parties to the evidence have no objection to the authenticity, relevance and legitimacy.
"The witnesses you provided have all heard Xie Yongchen say that he signed a prenuptial property agreement with Li Yunru, is there any evidence?" Judge Zhang asked with a frown, seeing that the three were not the same except for the names of the decedents, he was in a state of great distrust of Xie Yongchen's character who was full of fire.
"There is no written evidence, but my witnesses on the side did not hear Xie Yongchen say this alone or once, and Li Yunru was also present when he said it, and my witnesses were willing to cross-examine it in court. Fortunately, last night, Li Jianren finally persuaded four witnesses to come to the court to testify.
"Let them testify separately. After Judge Zhang finished speaking, the clerk got up and walked out of the courtroom. A moment later, he entered the courtroom with the witness Chen Wen.
Chen Wen is the deputy general manager of Minyue Riyue Xingchen Real Estate Company, in charge of the company's sales business, and was originally trusted by Xie Yongchen in the company, and he is usually close to Ji Danhong.
After Xie Yongchen's death, Li Yunru announced at the board of directors that the sales department managed by Ji Danhong would be dissolved, and the real estate sales would be managed by intermediaries in the future, and Ji Danhong's henchmen and cronies would be replaced.
