Chapter 461: Honesty and Lies (Part II)

Lawyers have a lot of contact with the suicide note, because the cases generated by the suicide note abound. Lu Yihang did not jump out of the box, first questioning the authenticity of the suicide note. This tactic is one of Cao Yun's tactics: The policeman is also idle, and he has nothing to do to go out and slip around, what if there is a gain? Lu Yihang's tactical thinking: It does not matter whether he has succeeded or not, but what if there is a gain? Even if there is no gain, he can waste the energy of the Nine-Tails.

The tactics are right, and it is indeed a waste of Nine-Tails' time and energy. But the Nine-Tails has the ability to fight back.

Nine-tails does not explain the authenticity of the suicide note from the handwriting identification, the location of the suicide note, and the judicial scene. The Nine-Tails is well aware that the use of these three arguments can only illustrate the authenticity of the suicide note. Passive defense was not the strategy of the Nine-Tails in this case.

Nine-Tails: "We can read the true emotions of the deceased Li Bao from the suicide note, the true mood of a person. The first mood: guilt. Li Bao admitted that he caused Zhao Xiao to fall down the steps, and after Zhao Xiao's death, he apologized for his crimes. The second mood: remorse, regret is that he caused Zhao Xiao to fall at that time, and hate is hatred that he lied in court. The third mood: liberation, when he is about to commit suicide, all kinds of negative emotions lead to the release of his repressed mentality. Handwriting experts believe that the stroke is noticeably lighter at the end. The fourth mood: hatred, hatred of his own lawyer, that is, the defendant Lu Yihang. ”

Nine-Tails: "I can understand the first three feelings, and I'm sure the judge can understand it too." But why hate your own lawyer? Knowing that Mr. Lu charged very little in this case and won the case, I have a few questions for Mr. Lu. ”

Judge: "Yes. ”

Nine-tails asked, "Lawyer Lu, how many cases have you taken in these three months?"

Lu Yihang: "Eleven cases. ”

Nine-Tails: "How much is the total attorney's fee?"

Lu Yihang was stunned: "I didn't calculate." ”

Nine-Tails replied: "By checking with the tax department, I can answer for you." The average fee per case is $6,000, with a maximum of $15,000 and a minimum of $3,000. The total fee for your 11 cases is 66,000. You are a visiting lawyer at Takayama Law Firm, and the law firm takes 15% of the law firm, and you have 56,000 left. The average monthly income is more than 18,000. According to the tax rate, you belong to the labor income tax rate (wages and labor income are different), you need to pay 20% personal income tax, that is, 3,000 taxes, and the money you actually get in hand is 15,000 yuan per month. ”

Jiuwei: "You have an average of three cases a month, how high is the cost of three cases? There is no standard, Gao Shan lawyer is in the southern suburbs, and you must stay in a hotel near the court the day before the court to calculate. The cost of a day is eight hundred yuan, which deducts two thousand seven. The daily food expenses are 100 yuan, which is very little, right? The transportation expenses are because the lawyer is in the southern suburbs and the detention center is in the western suburbs, and they are going back and forth. ”

Nine tails: "The telephone bill is 1,000 yuan (the Eastern Tang Dynasty phone bill is expensive), and the remaining 6,000 yuan." After calculating the hard expenses, you still have an income of 6,000 yuan per month, which is not bad. But compared to your online shopping, a watch is worth 18,000 yuan to give a colleague, can you tell me what colleague it is?"

Lu Yihang replied: "I am a lawyer from the same law firm, I have been busy in the past three months, and she assists and helps me sort out the case materials when she is free, and I am very grateful to her." The prosecution does not need to question my finances, my actual expenses are far greater than the prosecution's predictions, and my sister will give me 100,000 yuan a month from Gao Yan for living expenses. Within five million, I am not short of money for just one phone call. ”

Nine-tails nodded: "Lawyer Cao of Gaoshan Law Firm is notorious, the law firm started with one million, and it is well known in the industry, and it is known as Cao Million......"

"Against. Cao Yun stood up and said angrily: "Mahler is next door, it's my business." ”

Judge: "The interrogator has no right to object, and he will kick you out if he makes any more trouble." "What's wrong with scolding you? You can sue, isn't it a lawyer? Do you understand the law?

Seeing Cao Yun sitting back quietly, Nine-Tails couldn't help but smile, and immediately withdrew his smile: "You are completely different from Lawyer Cao, you are not fighting a lawsuit for money at all." ”

Lu Yihang nodded: "So to speak." ”

Nine-Tails asked, "For what? What is your ultimate private purpose in handling the case?"

Lu Yihang: "In order to accumulate experience, the defendants in many cases cannot afford to pay high legal fees. ”

Jiuwei said: "But according to my understanding, Lawyer Lu is quite famous in the industry, so don't worry about the source of the case, right?"

Lu Yihang: "There are certain choices. ”

Nine-Tails: "In other words, Mr. Lu's reputation has increased because of the large number of cases accepted and the winning rate?"

Lu Yihang: "Does the prosecution want to question me for the sake of fame and fame, so I will defend Li Bao by any means?"

Nine-Tails clapped his hands: "That's right." Obviously, Mr. Lu is handling cases with money, or when Mr. Lu can choose cases with relatively high lawyer fees. This also explains why Lawyer Lu's fees are so low, he won the lawsuit, and he is still hated by Li Bao. There is only one reason, that is, lawyer Lu went against Li Bao's will and let Li Bao give false testimony in court. ”

This passage should have been divided into several parts, and the nine-tails can be summed up into one part to have considerable lethality. The first part: Lu Yihang subsidized the money to handle the case. Part 2: Li Bao hates Lu Yihang. Part 3: Lu Yihang instigated Li Bao to commit perjury. The first two parts are facts, and the third part is derivation and reasoning. Once combined, it becomes cause and effect.

Lu Yihang immediately objected: "I repeat, I did not let Li Bao commit perjury in court. ”

Jiuwei picked up a copy of the suicide note and asked, "Lawyer Lu, please answer, is the suicide note a forgery? Li Bao lied in the suicide note? Or did Li Bao not lie in court?"

This is again a pit, a pit in the second problem. Did Li Bao lie in his suicide note? No, but the suicide note did not explain that Lu Yihang asked Li Bao to lie. The Nine-Tails uses the method of confusing concepts, making the three one.

After all, Lu Yihang had the strength and replied: "The suicide note is true, and it is inferred that Li Bao lied in court." But Li Bao's suicide note did not state that I asked him to lie. ”

The core question was thrown out by the Nine Tails: "Has Lawyer Lu considered it? You helped Li Bao win the lawsuit with a low fee." But why did Li Bao express his hatred, disgust and disdain for you in his suicide note?"

Lu Yihang definitely needed to consider this question, and he was prepared for a long time, and replied: "I think that Li Bao has not been punished by the law, and I felt guilty after Zhao Xiao's death, and blamed the fault on me." ”

Cao Yun sighed in his heart, how can you be beaten all the time? Fighting on the same battlefield with the Nine-Tails is almost equivalent to looking for death. You've been answering the Nine-Tails' questions and you're being lured into an ambush circle.

Nine-Tails said: "I did not arrange for a master of psychology to testify in court. I just think that in the suicide note, Li Bao has fully explained his mistakes, and he is full of remorse, and there is no intention of shirking his mistakes. In this case, he unreasonably shirks the blame to you? Then why doesn't he blame the judge who pronounced the verdict and the jury that acquitted him? I can't understand it. ”

Lu Yihang replied after a long time: "I don't know what Li Bao thinks, I can only emphasize that I didn't let Li Bao commit perjury in court, and Li Bao's suicide note didn't say that I asked him to commit perjury." ”

"Got it. Nine-Tails nodded, this tone was very Cao Yun, so unflat. Immediately straightened his attitude and asked, "Lawyer Lu has won all the cases in three months and eleven cases, right?"

Lu Yihang replied: "There are two cases that I didn't win. ”

Nine-Tails: "But you didn't lose, you voluntarily pleaded guilty through the defendant and obtained the prosecutor's forgiveness." In one of the cases, he pleaded guilty in the pre-trial court and both received lighter sentences. The remaining nine cases were all won. ”

Lu Yihang: "Yes. ”

Nine-Tails: "In connection with the previous question, what are the criteria for lawyer Lu to selectively select cases?"

Lu Yihang replied: "The cases I selected are all cases in which the defendant pleaded not guilty. ”

Nine-Tails: "Because you think this kind of case has a better chance of winning?"

Lu Yihang: "There are considerations in this regard. ”

Nine-Tails: "So you can't lose the Li Bao case?"

Lu Yihang replied: "No, I can lose." ”

Nine-Tails: "You know you won't be defeated. ”

Lu Yihang: "According to what Li Bao and I said, and the facts I have, I think I am quite sure. ”

Nine-Tails: "The difference is whether Li Bao is telling the truth in court?"

Lu Yihang thought for a while before replying: "Yes." ”

Nine-tails: "It's really hard for me to understand, Li Bao saw you and told you about the situation, you didn't guide Li Bao, Li Bao appeared in court to testify, and he was acquitted." Li Bao hates you...... Why?"

Cao Yun: Nine-Tails doesn't have many means, and her use of core issues back and forth on her battlefield has deepened the judge's conceptual impression of core issues. Lu Yihang was unable to answer the core questions, and the Nine-Tails changed the core questions into multiple questions, resulting in Lu Yihang being unable to answer many questions.

This operation is not an ambush, but a strategy to exhaust the troops. It is estimated that the killer feature is in the second half, or even in the closing arguments.

After Lu Yihang couldn't answer, Nine-Tails used the last trump card: "I want to ask the No. 1 witness, that is, Li Jiao, who found Li Bao's body, to testify in court." ”

Lu Yihang has never understood the significance of Li Jiao's appearance in court, Li Jiao is indeed the first person to find Li Bao's body. Lu Yihang even thought that the Nine-Tails thought that Li Jiao had killed Li Bao and deliberately forced out the real culprit through the trial. Otherwise, Lu Yihang would not have understood the significance of Li Jiao's appearance in court.

Li Jiao is Li Bao's roommate and has a good relationship, before Li Bao committed suicide, Li Bao invited Li Jiao to eat downstairs. Li Jiao felt that Li Bao's mood was not right at that time, and he wondered in his heart and explained Li Bao: "What's unhappy? Is it because Zhao Xiao died?"

Li Bao replied: "She is dead, I am still alive, this world is really unfair." ”

Li Jiao responded: "She is the one who wants to leave you." ”

Li Jiao saw that Li Bao's face was uncertain, and changed the topic: "You are lucky, you met a lawyer with low fees and strong strength." ”

Li Bao: "Do you know why he is such a good lawyer to defend me?"

Li Jiao asked, "Why?"

Li Bao replied: "For the sake of fame." ”

Li Jiao: "That's normal. ”

Li Bao: "But I hate him, and I hate myself even more." I suddenly understood why I went to jail and why jail was called atonement. When people do bad things, they torture themselves and make themselves miserable, so that they can feel better in their hearts. ”

Li Jiao: "Are you okay?"

Li Bao: "I lied in court, but it was actually Zhao Xiao who I killed." ”

Li Jiao hurriedly said: "Don't talk nonsense, the lawsuit is already understood." ”

Li Bao: "You go away, what do you say is the same as the lawyer, tell me three times and twice, let me not talk nonsense." ”

After listening to Li Jiao's testimony, Lu Yihang responded: "When I met Li Bao for the first time, Li Bao asked me why I was willing to charge such a low fee to defend him. I replied, for the sake of fame. It was hard for me to explain my purpose to him, so I didn't explain. ”

Nine-Tails: "Could you please explain your purpose to us?" ”

Lu Yihang replied: "I have already explained: in order to accumulate experience. ”

Nine-Tails: "You've gained fame through your experience...... Lawyer Cao from your law firm is at a high level in the industry, if you want to accumulate experience, why don't you insist on being Lawyer Cao's assistant?"

Lu Yihang replied: "Lawyer Cao's fine business has very few cases. ”

Jiuwei: "But the cases that Lawyer Cao has taken are all high-impact and complex cases. ”

Lu Yihang: "I don't want to argue with this question anymore, my purpose is to accumulate experience, thank you." ”

Nine-Tails smiled casually: "Okay, have you asked Li Bao not to talk nonsense in court many times?"

Lu Yihang: "Before the trial, I explained the rules of the court, asking him to attend in formal attire, keep as silent as possible, and pay special attention not to talk nonsense. ”

Nine-tails nodded: "After the trial, Li Bao was released in court, and you asked him to have lunch together, but he refused?"

Lu Yihang: "Yes. ”

Nine-Tails: "Within two days, you contacted him twice to ask him to meet, but he also refused?"

Lu Yihang: "Yes. ”

Nine-Tails: "Three days later, Li Bao contacted you through social software and said that he regretted not telling the truth in court. And then what?"

Lu Yihang: "Hmm...... When I saw this news, I was stunned for a while. I messaged back and asked, what do you mean by telling the truth? What are you hiding? But I've been blacklisted by him. ”

Nine-Tails asked, "Have you ever looked for him again?"

Lu Yihang: "No, I had a case at hand at the time, and I was busy. The city of Dongtang is very large, and it takes hours to make a round trip. ”

Nine-Tails asked, "Have you reported this matter to your boss, the person in charge of the law firm, and filed it?"

Lu Yihang: "No. "Gao Shan Xing went on a trip, and Cao Yun was in the famous city.

Nine-Tails: "That's really the case. After the trial, although Li Bao did not answer your phone, he interacted with you on social software. You can see that he is in a low mood, and guess that it is because Zhao Xiao became a vegetative person, so you have been comforting him and persuading him to forget Zhao Xiao and start a new life. and is willing to serve as his civil litigation lawyer to undertake Zhao Xiaojia's possible lawsuit against his claims. Li Bao replied: He said that he should tell the truth in court. There is also a message later: I don't want to see you again. And only then will you be blacklisted. ”

Lu Yihang: "I can't remember so much, I only remember that the previous sentence had a great impact on me, and I was a little confused for a while." Thinking about what went wrong in your head. ”
