Chapter 616: Causing a Sensation (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

"Punitive damages in civil lawsuits are generally for cases with very serious consequences and extremely bad social impact, and you have a good focus, but in order to highlight the joint responsibility of Seth's parents and the local police department and the city government, it must be emphasized that Seth's parents have committed irreparable wrongdoing, even criminal acts, in criminal cases. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

He Chuchu explained to Gu Nianzhi as if he was in class, "Understood?"

"Professor He is still amazing!" Gu Nianzhi nodded like a chicken pecking rice, looking very well-behaved.

He Chuchu couldn't help but rub her hair, "Don't pat yourself on the back, wait for lunch, rearrange the complaint, and then follow me to the court to submit it." ”

Gu Nianzhi smiled and finished lunch here at He Zhichu, and went back to the room to reorganize the complaint.

An hour later, the complaint was completed again, and she sent it to He Zhichu for final review, and after he signed it, she took Gu Nianzhi to the court in person.

Before leaving, He Zhichu, in the name of an American law firm, asked Smith, one of his assistants, to call major German media outlets, saying that their law firm was about to file a joint civil claim against Nina, Seth, Seth's parents, the Durslaw District Police Department, and the Durslaw Office Government on behalf of Li Haiqing's parents, and the amount was kept secret for the time being.

After the deliberate cooling and delay of the Munich District Court, the case became popular on social media for a while, and the heat gradually decreased because there was no follow-up development.

That's exactly what Seth's parents want to see, as long as the public doesn't pay attention to the case, they can do it.

Unexpectedly, the phone call made by Smith at the beginning of the year was like a stone stirring up a thousand waves, causing the German media to boil again in an instant!

It's almost German breaking-news.

For a time, Germany's largest media outlets interrupted the normal broadcast of their programs, and all of them sent on-site interview teams to broadcast the process of filing the civil lawsuit live.

Previously, Li Haiqing's case was once again turned over to popularize science and introduce to the audience, and said that the Munich District Court was still considering it, and the case had not yet been pronounced.

The media is moving too fast.

He Chuchu's business car had not yet arrived at the Munich District Court, and the media's long guns and short guns had already been set up at the entrance of the courthouse.

On this day, the weather was fine, at two or three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was not so strong, and the wind blew, and it was even a little cool.

In the reporter's camera, a low-profile black business car arrives from the other side of the street and is parked in front of the Munich District Court.

The car door opened, and a tall and handsome man wearing a black Armani suit, wearing sunglasses, stepped out of the car, it was Barrister He Chuchu, one of the partners of the American law firm that everyone was already familiar with.

As soon as he got out, he turned around and stretched out his hand in the car.

A woman grabbed his arm and jumped out of the car, although she was wearing sunglasses, someone still recognized her, this is He Chuchu's only female assistant this time, and it is also Gu Nianzhi who appeared in court to debate in the third court before!

The reporter immediately swarmed up, and countless microphones and recorders were sent to He Zhichu and Gu Nianzhi.

"Counsel Ho, why are you filing a civil claim against the Deslau District Police and the city government?"

"Lawyer Gu, will you also appear in court in the civil compensation lawsuit?"

"Lawyer Ho, what is the amount of your claim in your civil case?"

……

One question after another couldn't wait to be thrown out, waiting for He Chuchu and Gu Nianzhi to answer.

Gu Nianzhi received He Chuchu's signal, and first said in English: "The civil claim filed with the Deslaw District Police Department and the city government is because they were negligent in their duties and deliberately connived at the criminals to destroy evidence, causing indelible losses and injuries to my victims. ”

The German journalists all knew English, and they immediately translated her words into German and sent the video back to their media outlets.

He Chuchu looked around, and then said lightly in German: "This time, we want to claim one billion euros from the two defendants, as well as the parents of the Seth, York and Ramona, the Deslaw Regional Police and the city government. ”

“What?!”

When the crowded reporters heard He Chuchu's words, they were all stunned for a moment, almost thinking that they couldn't understand German.

"Did I hear me right?"

"yes, yes, isn't it a billion...... Euros?!"

"Yes, yes, yes, I heard a billion euros!"

Everyone looked at He Chuchu and Gu Nianzhi together, and confirmed again: "The claim amount is really one billion euros?!"

"You heard me right. He Chuchu said, walking straight in the direction of the court.

Gu Nianzhi followed closely behind, and he was very emotional in his heart.

Sure enough, the huge claim is the big news......

If the amount of the claim is small, they are embarrassed to come out to meet the reporter.

A small smile tugged at the corners of her lips as she calmly walked to the steps of the courthouse.

It took less than ten minutes to submit the complaint from here to the inside of the courtroom, but Gu Nianzhi remembered many things in his mind.

Huge civil claims are very common in Western countries, and their significance lies in the punishment and deterrence of the stronger party, so that the stronger party will not be able to do anything to harm the weaker party.

Especially when an individual is on the underdog side and sues a government agency, or a large business, the chances of winning the case are very high.

For example, in the very famous McDonald's hot coffee case in the last century, an old woman was burned by McDonald's hot coffee, and although she was only hospitalized for three days, she also demanded millions of dollars in compensation from McDonald's, and later won the lawsuit.

This is the power of punitive damages in civil litigation.

Gu Nianzhi hopes that through this lion's big mouth of civil claims, it will not only attract a new round of attention from the media and the public, but also prepare for the defeat of the criminal case.

She had sensed that due to the lack of direct evidence and the court's bias in favor of the accused, they were likely to lose their criminal cases.

Although they will definitely continue to appeal, they can now take advantage of the outrage caused by the loss of the criminal case among the public, and Gu Nianzhi hopes to make their civil case go more smoothly.

To be honest, since there is no death penalty in Germany, Gu Nianzhi is not satisfied with the outcome of the criminal case no matter how it is judged, so only in civil cases can the huge claim let the other party know what is called "skin pain".

Due to the high media attention, and the fact that He Chuchu published his complaint online after submitting it to the court, the Munich District Court could not even think of filing a case.

Because countless legal experts and high-ranking political officials are staring at this case.

No matter how powerful Seth's stepfather York is, he can only cover the sky in the Deslaw area, and in the whole of Germany, his hand is not big enough to cover it completely.
