Chapter 111: Showdown in court

Lai Fei felt that he had never shown favoritism, and he had not done anything wrong, and he was unwilling to be forced to give up the case by a lawyer.

With his temper, no matter what his future career is, it really angers him, and he really continues to do it unceremoniously.

The relationship between former classmates is not within the scope of recusal stipulated in the Civil Procedure Law at all, and he has not met Fu Lichen at all before this.

Li Xianbo wants him to avoid it, but there is no basis in the law!

However, all the anger turned into deep thought when he thought that Li Xianbo was coming for Fu Lichen.

Li Xianbo has the intention of finding fault with Fu Lichen, and applying for his recusal is probably not to make trouble for himself, but to make Fu Lichen unhappy.

The means are lower, but for Fu Lichen at this time, maybe it will really have a miraculous effect.

Lai Fei hesitated again.

Ten minutes later, the other two judges had returned to the courtroom with Refey.

Deng Bo was about to announce the final decision of the collegial panel on behalf of Lai Fei, but before he could speak, Fu Lichen, who had been silent, suddenly asked: "I don't know why Lawyer Li thinks that Judge Lai and I are classmates, so he can't hear this case?" Could it be that as long as I come to the West City, all my classmates who have become judges will go on strike? ”

Li Xianbo sneered when Fu Lichen didn't see the coffin, and announced the law in a straight voice: "China's Civil Procedure Law stipulates that judges and agents ad litem have other relationships, which may affect the fair trial of the case. The parties can apply for recusal!

As a barrister who has been practicing for many years, Mr. Fu should not be unaware of this. ”

Fu Lichen smiled slightly, "Of course I know this. ”

Before Li Xianbo's smug smile could be grinned, he slowly continued: "But I am not the agent ad litem in this case, I don't know why Lawyer Li quoted this article?" ”

"What?"

"What?"

Several people exclaimed at the same time!

Not only Li Xianbo was dumbfounded, but even several judges looked at Fu Lichen in surprise.

Fu Lichen glanced at Ying Yue on the side, who held back for a long time, and now he finally has a place for him, and immediately took out the power of attorney issued by Xirong Company and handed it to Lai Fei, "Judge Lai, this time our company's agents are Lawyer Long and Lawyer Yu, these are the authorization materials between us, please take a look." ”

Long Kun also took out a piece of paper and handed it to Lai Fei, "This is a letter issued by Wanzong Law Firm, which can also prove that our law firm agrees that I and Lawyer Yu will serve as the agent of Xirong Company." ”

In a litigation case, there are no more than three power of attorney materials for the agent: one is the power of attorney signed between the lawyer and the client, the second is the letter issued by the lawyer's law firm, and the third is the lawyer's own lawyer's certificate.

Long Kun, as the director of Wanzong, has the official seal of the law firm on him, and he can become an agent of Xirong Company in three seconds.

Li Xianbo looked at the brand-new materials, and didn't know that the other party had temporarily changed agents, but he couldn't find fault at all.

All procedures are legal and reasonable.

It's all because he was too proud, and he wanted to see Fu Lichen's helpless appearance as soon as possible, so he took the first step to make trouble before Xirong officially handed over the authorization materials to the court.

Now, not only is the reason for applying for recusal untenable, but he has become a laughing stock.

The lawyer immediately became annoyed, pointed at Fu Lichen and asked, "Since he is not an agent, why did he appear in court?" ”

Fu Lichen shrugged his shoulders and said in a relaxed tone: "This case is being tried in open court, and I should have no problem to observe, right?" ”

Lai Fei also had an uncontrollable smile on his face, and echoed: "Of course there is no problem, but I don't know if Lawyer Li still has a problem?" ”

Li Xianbo's face turned blue with excitement from Lai Fei's glance, but now he ignored it, so he could only grit his teeth and whisper: "No problem!" ”

"Then please ask both parties to check the original evidence quickly, if there is no problem, we will officially open the trial!" Lai Fei immediately called the clerk and quickly completed the work before the trial.

Fifteen minutes later, the presiding judge rang the gavel and opened the trial.

Yu Yingying, as the appellant, presented evidence first.

She took out the housing construction contract prepared by Xirong Company and the receipts issued by the construction company, "These two pieces of evidence jointly prove that Xirong Company spent a total of 200 million yuan on the construction of houses on the basis of the houses owned by the Appellee."

Therefore, according to the housing lease contract signed between us and the appellee, the 200 million yuan can be discounted into rent, and if the lease cannot be continued, it should also be returned to us. ”

Lai Fei waited for her to finish, turned to Li Xianbo, and said lightly: "Please ask the appellee to express his cross-examination opinions." ”

"The authenticity and legitimacy of the evidence are not recognized, and it can be seen from the freshness of the original evidence that they were forged by the appellant in the course of the litigation, and they are not contracts signed five years ago at all." Li Xianbo coldly pointed out the suspicions.

Lai Fei turned to Yu Yingying again and asked, "What is the appellant's response?" ”

Yu Yingying secretly said that Li Xianbo was really not a fuel-efficient lamp, and she could see the problem at a glance, but now that the evidence has been taken out, she can only say hard, "This evidence is the construction contract signed by Xirong Company and Haocai Construction Co., Ltd., as well as the receipt given by him Haocai." The above official seals are true and valid, and we have brought the official seals for the court to compare, and we cannot deny the authenticity of our evidence just because the contract and receipts are relatively well preserved!

If the appellee believes that our evidence is not true, please present the evidence. ”

No matter how 'fake' their evidence looks, Li Xianbo's empty mouth and white teeth can't help them.

Even if it is a court, you can't say that their evidence was forged for no reason, after all, their official seals are all genuine!

Yu Yingying grasped this point and refused to admit it, as long as they could not find evidence to the contrary, then their evidence was likely to be accepted by the court.

However, before Yu Yingying could get happy, Li Xianbo suddenly said coldly: "What if I say that I have evidence to prove that both of your pieces of evidence are forged!" ”

Yu Yingying froze suddenly.

Li Xianbo had already looked at Lai Fei, "Presiding Judge, I apply for the witness Liang Xu to testify in court, Liang Xu is the legal officer of Haocai Construction Company, and all contracts of Haocai must be registered and stamped with his official seal before they can take effect, and he must know the authenticity of the contract taken out by the appellant." ”

As soon as these words came out, Xirong's face immediately changed.

Yu Yingying glared at Ying Yue fiercely, and scolded Xirong's legal affairs in her heart for what they were eating!

There was such a big flaw!

As their ally, Haocai Company turned its head to testify in court on behalf of the other party, so wouldn't their so-called evidence become a joke?!

Lai Fei was also surprised when he heard this, he paused, and exchanged opinions with the other two judges in a low voice, and finally nodded in agreement, "Then the witness Liang Xu will testify in court!" ”

A tall man was brought to the witness stand and sat down.

After Lai Fei informed the other party of the relevant rights and obligations of witnesses to testify, he said in a deep voice: "Witness Liang Xu, in court, you must truthfully answer the questions raised by the court, and you must not tell lies, and you will bear corresponding legal responsibility for telling lies, do you know it?" ”

"Clear." Liang Xu hurriedly responded.

Reffey first asked the clerk to give the evidence submitted by the appellant to the witnesses to identify, and then asked: "Do you know the situation of this contract?"

Liang Xu: "Judge, I handled this contract, and I know very well the situation of the contract signing. ”

"Then you can elaborate on it."

"About a month ago, Mr. Yuan, the deputy director of Xirong Company, approached the boss of our company and asked him to help sign a building contract and issue the corresponding receipts to prove it, and our boss asked me to sign the contract with the other party and affix our company's official seal.

But the boss was worried that something would go wrong, so he didn't ask the finance to issue a receipt, but I directly stamped the official seal on the receipt, but all the bills of our company should be stamped with our company's special financial seal. ”

As soon as Liang Xu's testimony came out, Yu Yingying's face turned completely white.

She didn't expect that there was such an inside story at all, if Liang Xu was telling the truth, they were not only put together by Haocai, but they were actually holding a receipt that was not valid.

Lai Fei asked again: "Then is the content of this building contract between your company and Xirong real?" ”

Liang Xu shook his head, "No, the content of the contract is false, and we didn't help Xirong build the house mentioned in the contract." ”

"Since none of you actually built a house, why did you sign this building contract with Xirong?"

"Because our company has always cooperated with Xirong, and the other party made such a request, our boss couldn't refuse for a while, so we signed this contract, but after lawyer Li explained the legal consequences of perjury, the boss asked me to represent the company in court to explain the matter clearly."

Reify nodded and asked the clerk to take the witness out of the courtroom.

Lai Fei turned his head to look at the two sides and asked, "What do the two sides have to say about the witness testimony?" ”

Yu Yingying: "......"

The matter is already clear, where can she still say an opinion.

Li Xianbo said triumphantly: "The report judge, through the witness testimony, combined with the evidence submitted by Xirong, has been able to clearly reflect that he has forged these evidence, and asks the court to reject the two pieces of evidence in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations, and reject Xirong's appeal request."

In addition, Xirong Company and its agents knew that the evidence submitted by them was forged, and they had to present it in court, intending to interfere with the court trial, which was a manifestation of disrupting justice, and the court was requested to punish it! ”

Yu Yingying was in an uproar.

She didn't expect that Li Xianbo not only wanted to prove that their contract was forged, but also wanted to pull Xirong and their agent off the horse!

Xirong Company is only a party with little problem, and at most it will be warned and fined.

But their agents are also subject to the Lawyers Act—

The crime of falsifying evidence and obstructing justice can be big or small, and if she and Long Kun are not good, they will have their lawyers' licenses revoked, and they may even be criminally responsible.

Yu Yingying was about to panic all of a sudden, and instinctively looked at Fu Lichen in the auditorium.
